They're pictures of naked children.
If an underage teenager texting a naked picture of themselves qualifies as a child pornographer, a TSA employee storing pictures of a naked child certainly does too.
- c1sc0 16y agoDoesn't mean it is right though. Wikipedia: "Pornography or porn is the portrayal of explicit sexual subject matter for the purposes of sexual excitement and erotic satisfaction." How is a simple picture of a naked child explicit or exciting?
- swombat 16y agoSexual excitement and erotic satisfaction are in the eye of the beholder.

- c1sc0 16y agoReally? Pink is porn now? Well, suit you sir, suit you! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amor_Vincit_Omnia_(Caravaggio) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amor_Vincit_Omnia_(Caravaggio)

- rbanffy 16y agoShouldn't you consider fixing the law that considers anything "child pornography" instead of trying to make even more stuff be considered child porn? The example of that unfortunate hentai collector comes to mind.
- SageRaven 16y agoIn a perfect world, yes. But maybe once the feds and their outsourced hands get painted with the same broad brush as the populace, maybe we'll see some of these way-too-broad think-of-the-children laws be tossed out and rewritten to something resembling sane policy.
- pyre 16y agoIt's more likely that the Feds will figure out another way to make themselves immune.
