John Grisham Stands For Pedos

John Grisham made some comment about how people busted for child porn get unduly long prison sentences while promoting his latest formulaic drivel aimed at high school secretaries on their quest to find the missing hall pass. He thinks child porn hysteria is out of control, as arrests have now extended to older white guys who attend church semi-regularly:

“We have prisons now filled with guys my age. Sixty-year-old white men in prison who’ve never harmed anybody, would never touch a child…

I’m not sure the prisons are exactly filled with sexually disturbed Internet surfers. But Grisham has a point. There’s no harm in just watching child porn, given that it’s actually cast with happy adult midget workers with awesome benefit packages and not innocent kids being raped daily in Russia. But his grandfatherly heartstring messaging neglects to mention that sixty year old white guys are the coveted age demo of child porn. AARP members are the tween market of pedophilia.

“… 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… It was labelled ”sixteen-year-old wannabee hookers” or something like that. And it said ”16-year-old girls”. So he went there. Downloaded some stuff – it was 16-year-old girls who looked 30.”

You can find convincing teen porn on any mainstream site that looks real enough to make you bust a U turn when you drive by a private school.  Nobody labels a video “Sixteen Year Old Wannabe Hookers” unless the chicks look like they belong in a Color Me Mine. It sucks Grisham’s golfing buddies turn into pedos after a couple gin and tonics. Most upstanding citizens just turn violent and anti semitic after a few belts. Someone should hack into John Grisham’s hard drive so he can be properly jailed and we can find decent shit to read at the airport.
