The guy is accused of having sex with his stepdaughter, killing her to cover it up, and dumping her body in a river. Half of the trial is about a witness having visited bestiality websites and having pictures on her phone which she voluntarily turned in so messages from the killer could be recovered.
Say, have you heard about whataboutism, caikgoch? [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/wink.png[/img]/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" title=";)" width="20" />
Challenging a witnesses´ credibility is lawyer 101; in your nation that obviously has no problems with showing live footage of cops gunning down bank robbers , but goes nuts when Janet Jackson´s nipple is shown, it´s not the core issue whether some witness is questioned about visits in a bestiality forum, but your nation´s entire focus. Nazis openly wearing insignia of an evil genocidal dictator? No problemo in the US! But don´t show the nipple...it might negatively influence the kids!!!

To me, the USA basically looks like a death cult. You glorify violence and vilify sexuality...and that as the world´s greatest porn producer and the greatest market for porn of all colours. You glorify wars, soldiers, guns....you´re afraid of the *eros*, but are completely hooked to the *thanatos*, as Freud would put it. The case you linked doesn´t exactly fit into what you wanted to prove here, it only shows there are issues way deeper than just challenging the credibility of a witness because of visits in a bestiality forum. I´d even say that the witness would be equally attacked if the bestiality forums would´ve been a BDSM forum, a "diaper people forum" or any other aberration you can come up with. This goes deeper than what you are aiming at. And be honest, aren´t we all indeed a little twisted ?

Joking aside, I really believe that your way, the American way, has come to an end. Trump is the perfect symbol for this...a "conservative" party, emphasising on "family values", "christianity" and "decency" elects a bloated , uncultivated swine as their candidate ...and all the rednecks, poorly educated and disappointed casualities of the change of times (coal!clean coal!!!) make him the president. He withdraws from the Paris climate accord, some states nearly drown from never seen hurricanes and yet, "MAGA!" You all complain about "the media", but it´s you, with your sensationalism who made "the media" into what it is....
You hold up the values of "freedom", yet you invade countless countries, mingle with their political processes (Salvador Allende, anyone?), lead wars solely for oil and leave them with utter chaos (Iraq, Syria etc.), you bomb countries back into stone age simply for vengeance (Afghanistan) and complain about your army being shot at with exactly the same weapons you sold to Afghani warlords decades ago when Russia still was the big baddie...
You privatise jails and wonder why you´re the nation with the highest incarceration rate worldwide, locking away people for literally nothing because inmates equal profits. And don´t get me started on the entire health care issue....there definitely is a bigger problem in your country than just a witness and visits on a bestiality forum...don´t you think?
