How do we know at least some of these people weren't producing the porn?

No one's been charged with it yet, only possession. Perhaps the east Texas ringleader, but it sounds like most of these people were entrapped. Again, normally I wouldn't care, all of them could be hanged, but the war on terror is more important. Perhaps this sting was planned pre-9/11, in any event now those agents need to be reassigned to more vital assignments.

There are other problems beside 9/11. I would imagine there are several investigations going on as we speak that have no connection to 9/11.

As it should be.

I guess you were hoping that the 9/11 attacks meant a get-out-of-jail-free card for all other kinds of perps. Sorry, we still have to uphold the law elsewhere; its part of our attempt to keep our society from collapsing into anarchy, which was one of the goals the terrorists had hoped to accomplish.

BTW, 'entrapment' is a legal term that has been abused as much as 'terrorist' is going to be abused. An example of entrapment would be if an undercover agent got to know you and say, sold you a used PC. That night, agents break down your door and find thousands of kiddie-porn pix on that same PC. If people are voluntarily going to this site to download and exchange files, its not entrapment.
