Today's moment-of-pause has been brought to you by Wal-Mart and the city of Peoria, Az. Apparently, some photo-clerk vigilante, diligently on the lookout for child pornography, saw photos of kids during bath time and decided to call the cops, according to a story on Good Morning America.

Next thing the parents of these kids knew, the children were removed from their home. For an entire month. Mom got suspended from her job for a year and both -- Anthony and Lisa Demaree -- were added to a list of sex offenders. The judge in the case said the pix were harmless.

"I don't understand it at all," Anthony Demaree told GMA, with his wife by his side. "Ninety, 95 percent of the families out there in America have these exact same photos."

There's a vid if you click the link.



Anyways, I think this whole thing is just preposterous, I know that I've had pictures taken of me taking a bath and my cousin taking a bath, and she's a girl >_> So I dunno what the big deal is. It's not porn... is it? What's your guy's takes on this?

I'll take the road less traveled~

In my days of living and learning, I have come to find that anything CAN be used as 'porn' if you will. Whether that was the intention of these, or other photos of the like, I doubt it.

Firstly: why would parents be taking pictures of their kids when they can have the real thing? horrible to say I know, but point still valid. Secondly: Why would any real Pedo take the pictures to a wallmart to be developed? I'd like to think people aren't that stupid, but apparently, I give them too much credit.

It's a very good point. Anyone can use any sort of pictures in a porn sense.

But these people definitely weren't trying to use it as porn. Someone else could, maybe, but not the parents o-o. *nods nods*
