Dirty Movies!

NOTE: I’m going to de-vowel some words in this post so we don’t end up on google searches for unsavoury topics, like we have in the past. Sorry if it makes reading more difficult.

There’s an interesting news story from a Detroit newspaper about a teacher who was apparently unjustly accused of m0le’sting two young boys.

There was no case at all against him, and the investigators didn’t do some very basic things (like question the adults that were in the room where it supposedly happened, etc). But that’s not really what this post is about.

This post is about this paragraph:

At one point, Assistant Prosecutor Andrea Dean tried to argue that movies found in Perry’s home, like “Star Wars,” the “Harry Potter” films and “Little House on the Prairie,” constituted “non-er0tic p0r’n0gra’phy.”

“N0n-er0t1c p0rn0gr’a'phy”. What the heck is that?

And exactly how would this bizarro concept apply to “Little House On The Prairie” ?

It just boggles the mind.

The prosecution actually tried to use ownership of a G-rated movie of one of the most popular books in North America of as evidence that a man is a child-m0lester.

One of my favorite books of all time is The Long Winter, joined on the list by Farmer Boy. We have audio books of both of those, and Little House movies too. We’re even waiting to start watching The Waltons together as a family.

We’re so bad.

Let’s not even get started on Star Wars and Harry Potter.

Well, okay, Harry Potter’s a bit iffy.
