There seems to be a mentality of let's get him in prison for any reason because we don't like what he has written. That what they do in Iran and North Korea, not what should be done in a Democracy.

I disagree. People just want books that describe in detail how to commit a crime on a child to not be publically available. I dont particularly want this person hung drawn and quartered; in fact, I am kind of pleased this issue was raised so that it can now set in motion a process to stop this kind of thing ever being sold again, before hopefully any children have been harmed.
To me, having a book like this available for distribution almost legitimises this heinous crime.
