    He should be ashamed of these views.Pedos are the lowest of the low.Even killers in jail look down on them.They attack the weakest in society and ruin their childhood and adult life.

    Ye it's crazy how so many people think it's OK. Should be no debate or case, they should get time straight away.

    This is just disgraceful. The larger book selling sites should boycott his books after his statement. No thoughts at all for the victims of child abuse, he only appears to care about his mate that got caught.

    This quote from his interview:
    We have prisons now filled with guys my age, 60-year-old white men in prison who’ve never harmed anybody, would never touch a child . . . But they got online one night and started surfing around, probably had too much to drink or whatever, and pushed the wrong buttons, went too far and got into child porn.

    Um, John? It's not like Google indexes it. You've to be very determined to find child porn on the internet. It ain't no accident!

    As well as this, every person that accesses it perpetuates the production of child pornography. So more children suffer.

    Knob.
