Re: Henson was one of the reasons England got the SOA 2003

Hi there
Im not an artist, nor am i a politician, but i am human, democratic and believe in freedom. Unfortunately we dont live in a perfect world anymore where we can prounce around freely. Australia has one of the highest rape, sexual assault and child porn statistics in the world.. NOTHING to be too proud of. Australia is a growing country which needs to be careful, its no longer as safe as we all think it is and trust me we have to be ashamed of the recent spate of attempted child abductions, rapes, murders and priests having fun with school kids... I know Bill Henson is an artist, but he cant control some sicko walking into the gallery, getting off on his pics and then heading out to harm some kid... none of us can.. but we can work together to minimise it... no one , no one can point fingers at the government, our next door neighbours, the law because we need to protect the kids of this country ourselves. If we dont, WHO will. Bill i respect your love of the human body,, but take some pics of grown women and men.. please dont apetise these sickos more than they need to be.. Each day we are shocked at the violence towards children.. small hands make one big hand, we need to help these kids together.. I am ashamed to be Australian because of the amount of child violence that exists, i live in Europe part of the year and i have tears in my eyes when i read the headlines each day. PLEASE and i mean PLEASE... think of the sick people that are walking down the street, this is not ART to them, they GET OFF on it... And they arent the bums on the side of the road, they are doctors, lawyers, teachers, fathers, priests... the people we LEAST expect.. In a perfect world we can think perfectly free... BUT in a world that aint no longer perfect, we need to be cautious... I DONT wanna be a kid right now, nor in the future, THEY arent enjoying the freedom we had as kids. PROTECT them and DONT TAKE YOUR EYES OFF them. Hope this makes sense and bless the safety of every kid you know. Thanks
