I'm going to drop this here so that I can refer to it the next time that this sort of nonsense surfaces on Nairaland (I'm sure that similar images will hit Nairaland front page again).

Pornographic cartoons have been circulated on the World Wide Web almost since the beginning of the Internet. Most of them are clones of very popular children's cartoons, but that does not mean that they were created by the people who made the original cartoons.

There's a good reason why I said that I'm shocked that Nairaland moved that thread to the front page without censoring the picture. It is illegal to distribute that kind of image in some jurisdictions. An Australian man was jailed for possessing pornographic Bart Simpson cartoons c2007. The judge ruled that it was child pornography.

Some people have blamed Azadus for creating the hoax, but that image had already gone viral before it was posted on that "Azadus account". I'm not even certain that the account actually belongs to Azadus (many people have deceitfully set up social media accounts bearing the names of famous people).

shocked Child pornography laws are very strict, but is Bart Simpson a child?

Fake Simpsons cartoon is child porn, judge rules

An internet cartoon showing characters modelled on Bart, Lisa and Maggie Simpson engaging in sex acts, is child pornography, a judge has ruled in a landmark case.

In February at Sydney's Parramatta Local Court, Alan John McEwan was convicted of possessing child pornography and using his computer to access such material.

He was fined $3,000 and required to enter a two-year good behaviour bond in relation to each offence.

McEwan appealed against the conviction, but it was dismissed in the NSW Supreme Court, with Justice Michael Adams concluding a fictional cartoon character is a "person" within the meaning of Commonwealth and NSW laws.

"The alleged pornography comprised a series of cartoons depicting figures modelled on members of the television animated series The Simpson," the judge said.

"Sexual acts are depicted as being performed, in particular, by the "children" of the family.

"The male figures have Instruments which is evidently human, as do the mother and the girl."

He noted the figures made no pretence of imitating any actual, or fictional human beings.

"In particular, the hands bear only four digits and the faces have eyes, a nose and mouth markedly and deliberately different to those of any possible human being," he said.

The magistrate had rejected a submission that cartoon depictions or representations of fictional characters such as The Simpsons were not of "persons".

Justice Adams said the legislation's main purpose was to combat the direct sexual exploitation and abuse of children that occurs where offensive images of real children are made.

But, he said, it was also calculated to deter production of other material, including cartoons, which "can fuel demand for material that does involve the abuse of children".

He upheld the magistrate's conclusion that the figures in the cartoons were depictions of persons within the meaning of the definitions in the laws.

Justice Adams ordered each party to pay its own costs, as it was the first case dealing with the "difficult" issue.

'OBSCENE' U.S. MANGA COLLECTOR JAILED 6 MONTHS

DAVID KRAVETS

02.12.10 5:14 PM


A U.S. comic book collector is being sentenced to six months in prison after pleading guilty to importing and possessing Japanese manga books depicting illustrations of child sex and bestiality.

Christopher Handley was sentenced in Iowa on Thursday, (.pdf) almost a year after pleading guilty to charges of possessing "obscene visual representations of the sexual abuse of children."

The 40-year-old was charged under the 2003 Protect Act, which outlaws cartoons, drawings, sculptures or paintings depicting minors engaging in sexually explicit conduct, and which lack "serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value." Handley was the nation's first to be convicted under that law for possessing cartoon art, without any evidence that he also collected or viewed genuine child pornography.

Without a plea deal with federal authorities, he faced a maximum 15-year sentence.

Comic fans were outraged, saying jailing someone over manga does not protect children from sexual abuse. "I'd say the anime community's reaction to this, since day one, has been almost exclusively one of support for Handley and disgust with the U.S. courts and legal system," Christopher MacDonald, editor of Anime News Network, said in an e-mail.

Congress passed the Protect Act after the Supreme Court struck down a broader law prohibiting any visual depictions of minors engaged in sexual activity, including computer-generated imagery and other fakes. The high court ruled that the ban was too broad, and could cover legitimate speech, including Hollywood productions.

In response, the Protect Act narrows the prohibition to cover only depictions that the defendant’s community would consider "obscene."

The case began in 2006, when customs officials intercepted and opened a package from Japan addressed to Handley. Seven books of manga inside contained cartoon drawings of minors engaged in sexually explicit acts and bestiality.

You can actually see a cursor on the bottom left corner of that picture, which makes me believe that someone created the picture on a computer (I'm shocked that Nairaland put that picture on the front page without censoring it).

On point. Why are people so gullible to believe every thing that comes their way?

What lines are you reading inbetween? Or you think America is like Nigeria that doesn't adhere to its censor board's promulgations.

Even movies are censored by age, not to then talk of a channel dedicated to kids.

Learn to reason and do some research. It doesn't take us that much. This is same reason why jungle justice is paramount without people wanting to know if the person is actually guilty or not.

Times have changed. Times have changed. Primary school book talks about sex and relationships, masturbation and what have you.
