Of course.

Where does it say "inciting the distribution of child porn".

He gave his reasons for accessing the website, and the police dropped charges.

You can't keep leading arguments with "I think it was something like" when it takes 10 seconds to do the research.

About half way down this article

Whatever anyone's thoughts on this, I presume everyone agrees that signing up for one of these sites for research reasons is stupidity of the highest order.Proven by the fact that it is being talked about 12 years later when we are supposed to be talking about them headlining Glastonbury.

He shouldn't play. How can people can condone this.

[newportcounty1]

Condone people trying to access child pornography like Pete Townsend did.

He accepted a caution. Therefore accepting guilt. Anyone choosing to watch Pete Townsend but have no morals.

And anyone making such sweeping generalisations on a complicated subject clearly isn't qualified to do so.

[The Placid Casual]

Of course, it's unfathomably stupid! No-one's denying that. Seriously, what was he thinking!

Yep

It was definitely mentioned (as it should be) but I don't think it got out of hand or became a big thing. But then I don't think it has this time so far either.

Ultimately it's one of those things that everyone should make their own informed decision on.

This thread get's increasingly more bizarre by the day.

I'm almost reminiscing for the "Stone Roses are defo playing cos a friend saw a Mani eating a walnut whip and that looks like a pyramid" level of madness.

I'd draw your attention to the Foals studio pic that was vaguely triangular.

Still pinning my hopes on them subbing and pissing on the chips of the Noel Gallagher fans

And not pictures of lilies.

Would much prefer Foals. They deserve a high profile pyramid slot.

Yeah, more in keeping with Emily's comments about giving up and coming artists a leg up than the current dad rock speculation of the who, noel G, weller...
