The Who star Pete Townshend admitted to viewing child pornography on the internet. He admitted to giving his credit card details to a site allowing to view child porn images and two MP's and another rockstar are also linked to giving their credit card details to an american site. But its all ok because he "didnt download anything". A quote taken from bbc

"I would be prepared to have the hard drive of my computer analysed by the police.

"It is important they are able to convince themselves that, if I did anything illegal, I did it purely for research. I am not a paedophile."

He was a brilliant rockstar but is he now just a dirty perve? Just look at the picture on the bbc website and make your mind up

Nice to see the country's finest legal minds at work here.
"Look at the pic and decide"

I sincerely pray that some of you are disqualified from ever being on jury service, on the grounds of being criminally stupid.
Nice quote from Roger Daltrey on the pic of Townsend with Glitter:

"That was at the Prince's Trust. He soundchecked and did his whole routine wiv his mic, chucked it back and caved the side of my cheek in. If me or Pete knew he was a nonce, we'd have kicked his head in. Pete is no more into kiddie porn than The Queen. Grow up and worry about sumfing proper"

No, he's saying worry about people that are actual child-molestors as opposed to a life-long best mate that he knows isn't a nonce.

I find it amusing that all it takes is one mention in a paper and everyone suddenly starts hyperventilating and waving torches.
Wait until something a bit more substantial before you start demonising. Like...oh let's say a police statement?

The Who have stayed in towns where children live though. That's condemning evidence in my opinion and like the papers show: he must be an evil man to look all morose and humiliated when the national press is claiming on the front page of every edition that he's a peodo.

One of the pictures was in black and white, which must mean he's guilty and another quite cleary showed him within 20 miles of a school.

Like a Lion, he's obviously stalking his prey...

So why get so annoyed?
And if you read the replies in this thread, it's the typical hysterical "He did it!" furoure that allows Chris Morris to laugh and laugh and laugh.

I agree with one comment in the press though:

Research or not, you don't help the kids involved by giving money to these websites.

Regardless of the reason, what he did was extremely stupid.

Without a doubt.
Unfortunately it's not illegal to be stupid
