Please share this article. I feel it's adamant that normies realize what child porn really is about.

Reading the article turned my stomach. But we have to spread this info.

People must demand that all cases of creating and distributing child porn that are investigated by Law Enforcement must look into where perps got the children from, where the children are and how they can be saved.

It's almost unbelievable that - from what I have observed - in most cases LE does not investigate this.

We are on the same page with this. I'm gradually realizing that the effort seems to be focused on only publicizing that some pedo got embarrassed by an investigation and boo hoo oh someone said he might have raped someone and oh no he may have to be in jail or maybe not... nothing about "we rescued x number of children who were returned to their homes." Because everyone wants everyone to think child trafficking is fake. Because in all likelihood it is probably mostly done through CPS.

(((They))) want to protect those who produce and distribute the child porn.

The public has to demand that more effort is done to find these children and rescue them.

The article covers child porn found in Ireland, but I doubt that the situation is much different in other countries, especially in the US: Most of the child porn found in Ireland was hosted on US servers.

The article also discusses other statistics related to child porn (who are the viewers, how large is the number of viewers in the population etc.).

It's a worthwhile read.

THE IRISH TIMES: Ten per cent of online child sex abuse images feature infants. Average viewer of child abuse material ‘a middle-aged married man with children’

One in every 10 images of online child abuse material detected in Ireland depicts children under the age of three.

Of the remainder (61 per cent) are mostly of children aged between four and 12 with nearly half of all images showing the active rape of a child

“People think of the victims as being teenagers and upwards. There is no age too young for these images. Europol has dealt with images with an umbilical cord,” child protection advocate and former senator Jillian van Turnhout told The Irish Times.

Viewers and distributors of child abuse material are believed by experts to be using increasingly sophisticated methods to avoid detection, meaning those caught by the authorities represent the tip of the iceberg, she said.

With two exceptions, the images were hosted outside Ireland. The US was the hosting country in 247 cases while the Netherlands was the host in 27.

Ms Van Turnhout said it is vital to recognise that the average viewer of child abuse material is “a middle-aged married man with children”.

According to Ms van Turnhout, the most prevalent and dangerous forms of child pornography distribution are exchange forums where images and videos are traded among users.

“In order to gain access to these images you have to provide images. And they have to be new images. They can’t go to another site and take them from there. So that leads to them taking pictures of their children. They get drawn into it.”
