No, that message board was going on about he likes teh cock amongst everything else
Someone on there also claimed he raped a unicorn and has three penises. Proof of one thing doesn't imply that the others are necessarily true.
i'd rather not re-read it all through again but i thought someone posted that as something he had said to imply he was off his head on drugs.

it is rather a coincidence that people were posting regarding him & two young women abusing children, which is exactly who have been charged.

not that i'm insinuating a coincidence is grounds for arrest, but it is a coincidence all the same.
I dunno, I only skim read. Most of the comments were barely coherent.

well i'll admit to doing the same, though it wasn't just the speeling & gramer that made for uncomfortable reading.

the gist of the thread was that the guy had disappeared up his own arse & was up to some seriously bad st

They were a fking crap band. As for the question as to where the extreme animal pornography thing was reported, it was in the Metro newspaper this morning.

No, it almost foxed me too. It just seems to take a few seconds for the comments to upload.

Basically, there are posts from 11 months back asserting, pretty much, what the press are now reporting as charges.

I wonder just how many of the press articles have merely taken the info off that website and the Wiki page and decided it is now fact, regardless of the source or verification?

I wonder if that is how the police have built their case?

After all, we went to war on the back some made up stuff by weird people on the Internet. wink

Well, there's photo evidence of him sucking cock on the internet so that part is at least true. He wouldn't have been remanded unless it was extremely serious. Pete Townshend and Gary Glitter weren't remanded as far as I can remember.
Doesn't that just mean he is Gay rather than a paedo?

No it means that at least some of the stuff referenced on that page (before it was censored apparently) was true.

I'm surprised Lost Prophets are still going, they were quite big a few years ago.

I'd assumed they had split.

Seems illogical.
That's called "production". Which is different from "making" - which can just be downloading.

I see.

I would class it thus:

"Making" Taking the pictures.
"possessing" Having pictures either in electronic form or a hard copy for viewing now or later.
"Distributing" Passing material either in electronic or hard copy to others.
"Downloading" looking at pictures/video online but not storing for later viewing or distribution.

I would class it like this because I feel the current way of describing it is misleading and a bit illogical.

Its all bad st though.

indeed the legal definitions are illogical to the layman, but there's no impetus to make them clearer as for PR purposes convicting someone of making indecent images causes the crime sound even worse in the minds of simple people.

This is so sad and sickening if true frown looks like they are confident enough in their evidence if they are charging and publicising it.

Fake Sound of Progress was one of my favourite albums when I was at school, dammit. Now ruined.

yes These offences are punishable under the Protection of Children Act 1978. In 1978 there was no internet, so no offence of "downloading" had been created. It's not possession if you've deleted it, and it would be illogical and unenforceable to make "looking at a picture" illegal. So downloading was prosecuted as "making".

Not a fan (and TBH who is now?) but I understand they were one of those curious phenomenena of British acts that are far bigger in the states than at home. Like Tony Bliar.
