ordered to sign on the sex offenders register for five years

Apparently to warn any other cartoon children living in his neighborhood. I once masturbated to Penny from Inspector Gadget when I was younger. I wonder if that qualifies. You realize of course that it's not going to stop there. There's going to be a day when a stick figure of a girl will be deemed child porn unless you add boobs and a hairy vagina. I mean how ridiculous is it when you start deeming people predators for wanking it to cartoon characters? He needs to take it to a higher court and get the ridiculous charges thrown out. And obviously if that's all he had, he was doing his best to stay within the bounds of the law. At this point they're just trying to mess up the life of a guy they're sure is a pedophile, with whatever might stick. No real children and yet his fantasy life gets him on a sex registry. People need to resist such idiocy.

"Though no actual child has been abused..."

Bingo! Case closed!!
