> Since law or no law, kids will send pictures of themselves, I don't see exactly who are we helping by branding them as criminals. Doesn't this line of logic extend to any law that gets broken on a regular basis, which includes rape, murder.. basically all laws? I've no idea if the law is effective at putting kids off taking pictures of themselves, but the fact that it isn't 100% effective doesn't mean it is 0%.
