Amazon sells book on Pedophilia

"The electronic book, "The Pedophile's Guide to Love and Pleasure: a Child-lover's Code of Conduct," by Philip R. Greaves II, apparently went on sale on Oct. 28 and costs $4.79 to download.

"This is my attempt to make pedophile situations safer for those juveniles that find themselves involved in them, by establishing certain rules for these adults to follow. I hope to achieve this by appealing to the better nature of pedosexuals, with hope that their doing so will result in less hatred and perhaps liter sentences should they ever be caught," the author says in the product description."

:shocked:

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

This is so sad. :(

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

The "better nature"?!?!?
How about appealing to a surgical procedure........

Is it possible the Amazon is unaware of this? The person that let that thru should be fired.

The safe schools czar supports this trash.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Disgusting.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

this HAS to be a fed sting doesnt it?????

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

They are completely aware, and have basically stated that they don't want to practice censorship.

"Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment from ABCNews.com. But according to the website Business Insider, Amazon issued a statement defending the book's place in the online store.

"Amazon believes it is censorship not to sell certain books simply because we or others believe their message is objectionable. Amazon does not support or promote hatred or criminal acts, however, we do support the right of every individual to make their own purchasing decisions," the company said."

If not - it should be!

:toofunny

Brilliant.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Wasn't there a story in the news maybe up to a year ago where a pedo handbook was found in public?? Or maybe I was watching Dateline or 20/20.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Well, until I hear otherwise I've done my last shopping with Amazon.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Apparently, a similar incident occurred in 2002:

"In 2002, Amazon.com cited the First Amendment as justification for offering another book that advocates adult-child sex, "Understanding Loved Boys and Boylovers," by David L. Riegel. Further, the paperback book is still available on the site.
At that time, Amazon stated, "Our goal is to support freedom of expression and to provide customers with the broadest selection possible so they can find, discover, and buy any title they might be seeking."
An Amazon employee emphasized that "Understanding Loved Boys and Boylovers" was "not a 'how-to' manual for molesting children. The author simply expresses his point of view about what he feels are misunderstood."

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

The 2002 book "Understanding Loved Boys and Boylovers" has a "look inside" feature on Amazon. If you're brave, click on "First Pages" and read what the book is advocating.

It's essentially in support of pedophilia; it is NOT just a book about *understanding.* :vomit

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

I'd look but don't see the "look inside" feature.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

It's only on the 2002 book (Understanding Loved Boys and Boylovers); the Kindle book doesn't have the look inside feature.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

How can they think there is anything to understand? The founding fathers would be mortified to learn that the first amendment would allow such depravity.

Guess I'll never be shopping with Amazon again.

Boy, as a mother and grandmother this stuff really irks me no end. :foottap

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

I'll pass.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Apparently they don't want to do ANY censorship. That's one position.

I'd have to think that anyone purchasing those books is getting their ISP checked within 5 seconds. Poor Psych student doing a report on child-adult sex!

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

What the heck is wrong with our world???

I suppose libraries will be carrying this book so they won't be accused of "censorship".

Sick.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Um, I'm positive pedophilia is a criminal act, so how are they not supporting or promoting criminal acts???

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Amazon is an international company.

What do the Libertarians out there think about this?

Should the market determine the actions here? Of course, telling Amazon you refuse to shop with them until they remove the book is another "free market exercise."

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Hey....good point!
Wonder if they'd sell books on how to best rape and recieve understanding?

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Write... so they get into the mind of the rapist. It wasn't about the sexual at. It was about the power... he felt like he didn't have power over his life so he... :pullhair

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

That shoulda said "right", in a sarcastic tone.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

It's just all disgusting. Makes me wonder when any of these acts will become acceptable?
I never thought I'd live to see the day when any business would even consider selling a book on pedophilia, except to maybe how best to surgically remove the temptation.....without pain meds...just sayin....

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Right. I don't see how this is legal. Free speach my *cough*. It puts the safety of children in jeopardy.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

:jaw

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Ummm... How to rape children without hurting their feelings too much?

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

HUH??????

This still just blows my mind.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

That makes about as much sense as a book titled "How to Murder and Not Leave a Mess" or "How to Rape a Woman and Say Thank You"

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Did I wake today and it is April 1st?

I don't think so.

This is sad-but that doesn't even tell how SAD it is.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

The author for this one would be Dexter Morgan.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

The thought crossed my mind. What better way to establish "Probable Cause" for a search of someone's home and seizure of their electronic equipment? Also, all of the records of who bought this "book" are right there at Amazon and easily accessible either with Amazon's cooperation or without.

Of course, look for this one to join a lot of other stuff and be available on UseNet and P2P networks.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

I wonder who owns Amazon?

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Jeff Bezos still holds 24% of the stock
Legg Mason Capital Management, Inc. holds 20.25%
T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. holds 7.5%
TCW Asset Management Company holds 5.5%
ClearBridge Advisors 5.25%.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

And I don't know why anybody is surprised. We want freedom to do what we want, with whom we want, when we want.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

I wonder how many of those have children.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Well, T Rowe Price offers 401Ks, mutal funds, etc. So that would be quite a few people.

Re: Amazon sells book on Pedophilia
 

Oh, God help us. I seriously hope it's a sting.
