A horrible law that makes felons out of 2 underage kids doing nothing but taking and sharing pics of themselves. |

It's more Hope Mills, unfortunately. Fayetteville needs to keep their rif-raf to themselves. That guy is/was Jack Brit's QB, so apparently it's a big deal. Quote HistoryQuoted:

lol. Even better that it's Fayetteville.  It's more Hope Mills, unfortunately. Fayetteville needs to keep their rif-raf to themselves. That guy is/was Jack Brit's QB, so apparently it's a big deal. All same same. You know your town rocks when it's only redeeming quality is a fucking grocery store. At least new digs will be publix adjacent. |

If a 18 yo does it it's a crime. if a 17 yo does it it's just "having fun" http://www.wral.com/families-react-to-high-school-sexting-case-/14869285/ Families shocked by criminal charge for teen sexting Fayetteville, N.C. — Two high school students face legal action after being charged sexual exploitation, leaving many families with unsettled emotions. Cormega Copening and his girlfriend Brianna Benson—students at Jack Britt High School in Fayetteville—found out the hard way. "I’m sure they have no idea that’s what’s going to happen,” Anne Heard, a mother of two, said. "They think they’re just having fun; they don’t know the consequences.” ... Authorities said Copening and Benson, 16, exchanged five sexually explicit pictures using cell phones. Both were charged with five counts of sexual exploitation—a felony. ... So, you think the police are in the right here? Morally? |

The whole point of child porn laws are to prevent perverted adults from abusing children and taking/distributing pictures of them... If a 16 or 17 year old takes a nude pic and sends it to someone while it's a terrible idea the sender should not be guilty of child porn because they would be both the victim and the perpetrator it's nonsensical. Now if the person who receives it is an adult charge the adult with child porn. Quote HistoryQuoted:

I'm hoping what you're saying is if an adult requests the pics and knowingly receives them should be charged. Otherwise you open it up for all kinds of prosecutorial abuse. |

why should a creepy 40 yo male get charged for having the same picture of say a 16 yo girl but a 16 yo male shouldn't For the same reason most states have adopted caveats to statutory rape laws where <21 or within X number of years makes it ok to do the nasty. |

Yeah, my phone is awesome, it can differentiate between any ordinary picture and child porn before it even notifies me of a text. |

Gimme a fuckin' break. At 16, the state tells me that I'm mature enough to pilot a 3,000 lb, 80 MPH chunk of steel through public streets on my own, but I'm not mature enough to choose who I send explicit photos of my junk to? Get the fuck outta here. My state says that you at 16 don't have the right to choose sex partners. |

the CP law is supposed to only apply to sexually explicit pics but some prosecutors (like this one apparently) will charge minors even for just exchanging nudes of each other Article says "sexually explicit" photos. |

Get the fuck outta here. You can also fly aircraft at 16. That law is BS and takes it WAY over the line. Who are they protecting? No one, but they are padding their own resume with convictions. |
