# this is a drawing of an underage girl
under the new laws being pushed through government you can probably be locked up with a group of paedos and rapists

# yeah I heard
I'm still to find the exact ruling they are pushing for here. But seeing as various established artists have been speaking out about it and asking if it means portraits from the national gallery have to be removed I think it's probably a little too open ended a law.

# Really it should depend on the reason the image was created.
But people could easily lie about their motive, so they're better off leaving it as it is.
At least it's not actually hurting any real children, if it's a drawing of a person and is completely fictional, I suppose.
But they can piss a lot of people off going about it this way D:

# Does that mean I escaped jail by 5 days?

# Yep
But when you turn 16 they'll drag you back from the detention centre and chuck you into the middle of the shower room with a sign hung around your neck reading "Will suck and fuck in return for being pissed on"
