Even if it IS a crime you don't think he should be jailed? Even though his actions contribute to the demand and subsequent production of photos which are made by exploiting children?
Downloading it, paying for it, commissioning it or encouraging it creates demand.
Scrolling through an image board then leaving does not.
If he only did the latter, I can't see how that contributes to any demand. It's like... sneaking into a cinema to watch a movie.
I've known friends who have shoplifted before. I know friends who have urinated in a public place before. I know friends who have driven whilst over the limit before. Should I call the police on every one of them?
Clearly you have no idea how the porn industry works, let alone the child porn industry.
In professional porn, the producers hate the amateurs that are producing free porn. I bet they hate the people uploading their own vids to free websites even more, and the porn makers probably try to press charges against the websites featuring their paid content for free.
By all means I think that people who watch child porn should be subject to any kind of penalty or jail time. Of course it is wrong!
I just did not want to jump to conclusions for a couple of pictures found on a blog. He isn't creating, downloading, or viewing videos.
I'm not saying that it is wholesome or innocent, but I also didn't want to betray someone I've known and loved for 5 years before getting an explanation.
As disthing says, I know people who smoke weed, who drink underage, and shoplift. Those are all cause for legal ramifications however, I don't think its a cause to get my panties in a fucking bunch.
Looking at a couple pictures one time doesn't mean you're a sex offender, maybe it does, but in my mind it most likely does not.
Is it normal that my boyfriend was looking at pictures of child porn?

I disagree. As I said below:
It depends on how he interacted with it.
Downloading it, paying for it, commissioning it or encouraging it creates demand.
