THIS is why everyone was extremely suspicious of Germany recently changing the punishments for CP possession because no matter what they say it's for, we don't trust authorities with that given that they'll put a higher priority of censoring fictional content to stopping ACTUAL child abuse.

At which you reply with pointing to Jack Thompson and every pathetic attempt of media trying to link CoD/GTA to school shootings.
