What to do... Anonymous
Okay serious question here...listen up fags. So I'm in Eleven country right now, and I bought a bunch of doujinshi's that might be considered borderline loli (Lucky Star, Nia from Gurren Lagann, Etna from Disgaea). Apparently my friend who went back to the states a week before me got the full cavity search. Somehow customs suspected he had loli porn in his luggage, so they checked his doujins, and flipped through every single page to make sure there was no loli content. He disposed of his loli doujins before leaving, so he was safe. Apparently they even gave him a hard time for having Yuko Ogura and Maki Goto photobooks.

So my question is: should I be worried? Should I take the chance and pack my doujin's inside my luggage, or should I ship them overseas from a post office? Has anyone whose been to Japan encountered any problems like these? Also, I should note that my friend was required to write down my name because I was in some of his digital camera pictures...I think they're just waiting to check me, bastards. -_-; You can't have my doujins, they're mine!

I dunno how much postage is, but I can't imagine it's cheap. If they're worth it to you, just ship them. Hell, I don't know why you're asking HERE. I'm sure you're aware of the consequences, and you're the only one who knows how badly you want to keep 'em.

I would just send them via regular mail. What country are you in where loli is illigal?

Well, are there really repercussions even for "cartoon loli porn"? What, are they gonna send me to jail for carrying cartoon porn? They can look through my luggage all they want, but they aren't going to find real child porn...I don't swing that way. They're freaking drawings for god sakes...how the hell can customs determine their ages and whatnot, if the ages are never specified. I can argue that the girls are simply drawn like they're young, and even girls IRL don't look "of age" all the time.

Get a marker and draw bigger boobies and some pubic hair.

Dude, use the post office. It doesn't matter if the law is on your side or not. If security/police thinks you are a pedophile then you are going to be in deep shit. What if it becomes a news story? If society thinks you are a pedophile then it will be even worse. 100 dollars to avoid that problem is worth nothing. It is probably even less.

Done and done...post office it is.

They're probably less likely to check the post mail. But I've heard of stories that the canadian customs check it very thoroughly. I don't think any type of cartoon porn is illegal in the US yet

Story sounds like bullshit, unless your friend was walking through customs with a towel on his head or screaming in Arabic "I'm going to blow you fucking pigs up!", a 'random cavity search' of an American citizen in America with no reasonable cause is basis for an epic lawsuit and would be on the news for weeks.

Also, learn to fucking read. Law specifically states 'children or realistic depictions of children'; anime/manga do not even realistically depict HUMANS for god's sake.

lol, Canadian custom's a joke. I put 'porn' on the customs decleration sheet once and it got through just fine.

Wrong.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolikon#Legal_status_in_the_United_States

Emperor Bush and his Rubberstamp Squad decreed in 2003 that anything depicting CP is illegal, as part of the same law that created the Amber Alert. That includes Loli art. Granted, this is the exact same thing they've tried over and over again before this, but when has something being obviously unconstitutional ever stopped a Republican?

It's being sent to the supreme court since it's, well, obviously a 1st amendment violation, but given that Bush managed to sneak in two far right anti-American nutjobs into the Supreme Court, it's highly likely it will be found acceptable.

I brought back like 12 bondage mangas from my trip, and they didn't even check.

Follow the link to the summary of the Amber Law:

>The law does not state that images of fictional beings who appear to be under 18 engaged in sexual acts that are not deemed to be obscene are rendered illegal in and of their own condition (illustration of sex of fictional minors).

as long as it isnt awesome /d/ porn its alright apparently. however if it is considered "obscene" apparently something becomes wrong and jail time becomes a possibility tho it is not specifically stated that jail time can happen.

yeah, fuck legal double speak, it's this kind of shit that's fucking up society, not "immorality". had to break it down before I could understand it too.

>[The law does not state][that images of fictional beings who appear to be under 18][engaged in sexual acts that are not deemed to be obscene][are rendered illegal in and of their own condition (illustration of sex of fictional minors).]

>[The law does not state][loli hentai][that isn't obscene (different definition of 'obscene' from state to state - snuff/guro's pretty much 'obscene' everywhere)][is illegal.]

Etna is over 1400 years old according to official sources. That is not "underage" by American law.
