Child Porn is already against the law.

Laws need to be worded very specifically

Awwww...click click and things fall into place...watch Gowdys testiminony re internet providers from yesterday...he talks about the difficulty of prosecuting pedo because of evidence...almost always requires the child to testify...the video evidence would save a child from having to testify against an HRC or WJC, etc...this HAS to be in place before they can expect to arrest and prosecute these folks...

Well, wait, I'm not sure I understand your connection. In my understanding,

because of evidence...almost always requires the child to testify...the video evidence would save a child from having to testify...

would mean that it would now be blatantly unlawful to play video evidence in a court room, wouldn't it? Or is it about the same caliber as, say, using a bag of weed in a court room to show it as evidence?

How in the hell is this not a law already!?!?!?! 🤔🤔😠😠

If I had to guess, I'd imagine it is so the FBI and CIA don't have to get caught up in the legalities of disseminating CP to the people they are trying to catch. But, honestly, I don't know.

Isn't that already a criminal offence?!?

I am combing through US Code: Title 18 right now, and I have yet to find specifics about this particular wording or scenario.

Can someone summarize and give us the bullet points? Also, any background on who wrote it? Introduced it?

This bill was very quietly introduced among all of the hoopla created over the FCC Privacy Protections rollback or whatever. Relevant to Pizzagate because it is important to get the law in order before starting to round up a lot of these higher level perps.
