That is the main problem with this kind of stuff, is that you have these sick people out there, and this kind of stuff adds fuel to the flame for them.
You can't live your life, act in certain ways, say certain things, based on how others percieve those actions or how they'll react to them. You can only try to offend as few people as possible (if your goal is to live pleasantly) or just say screw it and do whatever the hell you please.
The issue with child porography recently is that it's such a hot topic and so many people are snesitive to it (as they should be) that, as with any sensitive issue, people are becoming hypersensitive to the issue. Whereas before something like this may have been frowned upon, protested against (as is within people's rights), but not censored, now there is massive public outrage to the point where a man with absolutely no prior incidents of the sort and no other evidence to prove that he is an avid fan of child pornography (to the best of my knowledge) is facing possible criminal charges.
I can't say definitively what the truth is one way or the other, but part of me thinks that this may have been blown out of proportion.
