Tokyo's revised law to restrict sexual images of minors

I read the article in the new york times about tokyo finally making a law to restrict people from possession of child pornography. The article specifically talks about a certain comic book that has many images of under age girls doing sexual things. The comic book owner states that “To a degree, it has become socially accepted to lust over young girls in Japan,” Mr. Nakai said. “Condoning these works has meant more people have access to them and develop an interest in young girls.” Many of these girls arent even close to being legal! The article states that, "in the last five or six years, books and videos have emerged that feature girls, some as young as age 6, posing in swimsuits that stop short of full nudity. These models, who are paid about 200,000 yen ($2,400) a shoot!" So of course their parents let them do these shoots so they can get the money. This has been so accepted in japan that in decmeber the comic book had a fair that over 500,000 people attended (of all ages) with many comics that depicted adults having sex with minors that were on display for anyone to see or buy. Child pornography can lead to rape and murder. People that wouldnt normally think about child see this porn or "comic" and then my start to enjoy that sort of thing and it could lead to them wanting to have sex with a 12 year old! This is so disturbing to me, but i am thankful that japan is finally taking action about this. This new law will help stop this kind of porn to be published or banned from anyone to own or create.
