Now I am going to try and restrain my fierce ball of rage right now:
What the fuck is the purpose of taking her picture? Does it add journalistic weight to the story?
Oh, she is attractive, therefore she must be innocent.
Why would the cops mind a person who looked like that?
This law was meant to stop pedophiles and creepy people. She doesn't look creepy.
STOP RIGHT THERE. We humble cyber-citizens of the TFP proclaim long and loud that we are inclusive, we are not racist, nor sexist, nor discriminatory in any way. Then you see a picture of the perpetrator and what happens? The whole perspective changes. In My Humble Opinion, she could very well be a pedophile.
What if she looked 'shifty'? What then?
I think this law (and the breaking of it) really says something about what we have let our society become. I think that taking her photo to make her look innocent is a shameful thing.
Not the poster of the picture. I am not trying to flame you, flstf. I think that the photographer should have stopped and asked "what does it matter what she looks like?"
