Sex-Offender Identifies as 8-Year-Old Girl and Claims Porn Is Protected Free Speech
BREITBART ^ | January 10, 2020

Posted on 01/11/2020 4:12:41 PM PST by Morgana

A convicted sex offender from Michigan who claims to identify as an eight-year-old girl and who was caught with porn on his computer is now arguing it is protected by free speech.

Joseph Gobrick, of Grand Rapids, Michigan, was arrested after officers discovered illegal child pornography — including scenes of child rape — on his devices.

The 24-year-old convict attempted to argue that his porn was protected under the First Amendment.

Prosecutors, of course, argued that video and photos of children being raped are not protected free speech. Officials identified eight children being abused in the porn on Gobrick’s devices.

While representing himself at trial in Kent County Circuit Court, Gobrick brazenly exclaimed that he is not sexually attracted to children.

“I would no sooner have sex with a child than you would with a rattlesnake,” Gobrick insisted in court. “It’s just not safe.”

He also claimed that he identifies as an eight-year-old girl.

“I’ve always been an eight-year-old girl,” Gobrick claimed. “And even my drawings and fantasies, I am always an eight-year-old girl.”

Still, prosecutors pointed out that while in jail, Gobrick constantly drew pornographic images of children, where he similarly claimed it was his First Amendment right to do so.

“Based on everything he’s said and done, including bragging about what he was drawing in his cell, he obviously doesn’t think child sexually abusive material is wrong,” the judge said.

But the judge added, “This isn’t just virtual stuff; this is also real people being harmed.”

The court referenced the 17-year-old girl police found in Gobrick’s home in 2018. The girl had been reported missing and endangered. It was during that investigation that officers discovered the illegal porn on his computers.

That doesn’t look like a 24 year old to me.

Kinsey got away with an illicit taxpayer funded porn collection (still contained in Indiana’s university at taxpayer expense) and “experiments” that measured criminal molestation of children for “scientific purposes”.

More proof that a task force of terminally ill senior citizens need to create an underground vigilante group..........

Another clue as to why the children aren’t the future for at least another 30 years.

Okay, I think they meant to say that he was sentenced to 24 years, and he’s 45.

Well we’re letting anyone identify as anything. We can’t judge anyone so this guy is an 8 year old girl.

Either all the idiocy stops or there’s no limits.

How does a sane person respond to that?

This is a rabid animal and must be treated as such. No, actually this is worse than that. This is an evil that must be eradicated.

Truly, such deviance is beyond the comprehension of a normal person.

You just kill it man!

No other way to treat or prevent this nut job from striking again than to just hang him.

He’s a monster and should be destroyed. Preferably with fire.

He also claimed that he identifies as an eight-year-old girl.

Why not? Never hurts to try.

Everyone else is buying this "identifies as" affirmation crap.
