He is simply saying, in America, the courts are crazy. 25 to men shouldn't sleep with14yo girls, but perhaps it doesn't deserve 80 years in prison (as was a recent case)

'However, a report published in February by Reason magazine claimed that offenders caught viewing child pornography often received harsher sentences than offenders caught sexually abusing children. '

i hope you are cool with some stranger fucking your stranger over some stranger watching a video of your kid jerking it that your kid did one night while being dumb. because that is how the punishment works out sometimes. also i hope you would prefer someone murder your kid over fucking your kid. because that is often how the punishment roles out.

We live in a world where shit like CP could easily be and maliciously weaponized against innocent people, where hysteria about pedos has gotten innocent people murdered, and where some individuals will deliberately supply their own supposition to the intent of your comments. He has some valid points.

John Grisham claims men who view child porn are 'not real pedophiles' | Daily Mail Online

"Celebrated crime-fiction writer John Grisham has attacked America's judicial system for wrongly locking up men he believes 'accidentally' watched child pornography."

'However, a report published in February by Reason magazine claimed that offenders caught viewing child pornography often received harsher sentences than offenders caught sexually abusing children. '

'Questioned about the fact that viewing child porn fuels child abuse by placing a demand on creating new material, Grisham replied that sentences should still be lower for people who only download the content. ', "The best-selling author and lawyer - who penned novels like The Rainmaker, The Firm and The Pelican Brief - has given an astonishing interview to The Telegraph defending some child sex offenders, saying they have become victims of a legal system that has 'gone crazy'."

'The Telegraph - who will publish their full interview with Grisham this weekend - also noted a major increase in the sentences of people charged with possession of child pornography over the last 10 years. '
