Dutch demand ban of virtual child porn in Second Life

Immagination or Reality ?

Although I do not condone such acts.. my concern is that if you make Roleplaying of Illegal activities a criminal offence then your opening a pandoras box of issues. And opening people up to being prosecuted for simply what they are thinking of and not what they do.

How far will this go ? am I going to be locked up for having sex with my girlfriend who sometimes dresses like a schoolgirl. What about characters virtual communities that arent human, will they be prosecuted for indecency and beastiality. Are those who go around killing characters online going to be prosecuted for murder ?

if all the people within the community are over 18 does that not give them the right to explore ideas with each other.

Im not saying its justifyable simply that I can see a clear distinction between Pretend Fantasy and Reality.

Just my 2cents
