The part I highlighted in red to me is the most significant - Winona Ryder was rightly laughed at for her excuse. But we are so willing to acknowledge victimhood, we forget the role of free will. Celebrities seem to think they have none.

>i?Townshend’s claim that he has long predicted that “the Internet would be used to subvert, pervert and destroy the lives of decent people”

Subvert, pervert and destroy decent people? Countless millions of we "decent people" manage to go on line without the first thought of going over to kiddie porn sites. As for doing *research*, what an obscene hoot. He's no qualified expert, he was there because it INTERESTED him and all the excuses are BS. The fact that anyone could feel sympathetic toward his plight only tells you how far we've fallen.

"My Career's Over" (Sung to the tune of "The Song Is Over")

My career's over...
Reputation's besmirched...
Downloaded child porn...
Was just for research!!!
I sing this song for my crazy addiction...
I sing this song for 8 year old heineys!
I sing this song for my medical condition!
I sing this song for boobies... 12 year old boobies!

And don't forget the revised lyrics to "You Better, You Bet"

When I see a young boy I grab some BUTTER!!!
"You butter, you butter his butt!!!"

Or "Let my teeth open your drawers.."

More celebri-trash. That they are so adulated and adored is beyond disgusting. Too bad so few people are satisfied living their own lives and must seek fulfilment through the lives of "the famous". Somehow, Townshend will be excused for this. Count on it.

One really must wonder why these people can't just be happy. They're fabulously rich, they're doing exactly the kind of work they want to do, they get to be creative, they get to travel the world and meet all sorts of interesting people. Most people can only dream of such a life. So why do they never seem to be able to appreciate it? What's with all the looney behavior?

[wimpycat]

You wanna know what I think? I think you're some kind of deviated pre-vert. I think the FBI found out about your pre-version, and you were organizing some kind of mutiny of pre-verts.

He implies that his interest in child pornography is part crusade — “it is part of my duty, knowing what I know, to act as a vigilante”....

Yeah right. I couldn't get a few medical texts on the subject from the public library, I had to surf porn sites with my credit card to be a vigilante. A perv by any other name still smells the same.

Who is Steve Emerson?

Lock him up and throw away the key as far as I'm concerned. I believe that your country will, unlike ours does with celebs.

Cheers.
