I somehow stumbled across
http://madeleinemccannforumworld.blogsp ... etely.html today and disliked what I read. Somehow one of our own got his name tangled with a missing child case and a number of other difficulties. We have all seen how these cases get twisted into all sorts of directions to satisfy the basest of human qualities. So now we have witch hunters casting our interest in the darkest possible ways. Ugh.
Be careful out there.

Apparently this blogger has nothing better to do than to demonize those who interests different from theirs.

He closed his DA account, im guessing because of this. He had a lot of good fakes as well.
That blog reads like a paranoid schizophrenic accusing things and trying to connect dots that are not there. Creepy.

This was worth reading all the way through, because the blog author (who is actually critical of the whole dust-up) already sorted through pages of chaff and found this gem, probably the most even-handed comment about 'us' (and DA) from a non community member -
As to whether creating pictures of women in quicksand is anything more than an unpleasant (but essentially harmless) middle-aged fetish or fantasy, who know? At worst, it suggests to me the kind of low-level misogyny you find everywhere online in Facebook, YouTube, discussion forums, Twitter and so on - but that doesn't make him a pervert or a dangerous individual.
For your information, 'Deviant Art' is one of the oldest and - in internet terms - most respected creative websites for showcasing all kinds of digital 'artwork'. To go off on one about it being perverted and obscene reveals a lack of understanding of that community. Deviant Art is just a cross-section of the internet; it represents everything and stands for nothing in particular. Of course there are some pictures there that make you uncomfortable but that's a matter of preference, a subjective judgment.
Gives hope to those of us who believed that we could never catch a break from a non-fetishist.

That's understandable. In no small way, their brand of internet vigilantism can induce anxiety in the innocent.
Think of it as a bully newspaper on a
very slow news day.

My thoughts exactly. Just the standard hype for 15 minutes and then on to something else.
