  I don't think this would have any serious effect at all.
  
  I mean, pornographic materials are almost always smuggled into barney n' friends materials. A children's book a long while ago had an advertisement for condoms and showed a nude man and woman doing 69 on a pic on the back page.
  
  Also in today's society, what dumb child HASN'T browsed 4chan for da lulz? At any rate though, someone or something will corrupt the youth, it happens one way or another through the use of media tools such as the internet or even children's books.

  Does the fact that something is bound to happen make it acceptable, excusable, or good to be the instigator?

  No, but when it comes to this stuff today, kids are bombarded with shiet.
  
  You can't simply block everything out, because everywhere you look there's either a sick bunch of prostitutes stripping across the street, or some guy is wanking off in his back yard in front of everyone, or a bunch of teenagers are having drunken meth orgy's in swimming pool or something near an elementary school on a friday. The society we live in today, you get slapped with a descrimination lawsuit for just about anything if you don't accept it, and it lets these weird people do just that without being punnished.
  
  Something like this however is small in comparison, and was dealt with almost instantly by the owners of the channel. I highly doubt the 2 kids responsible will be punnished, if the law covered internet deliquency, then every 4-chan user would have been locked up by now for pirating, hacking, DDoS, porno, and just about every other form of disgusting acts.
  
  Sad bloody world this is turning into.

  I don't find this in the least bit funny. :srsly?:
  
  This is for children; I just hope the parents who show this to them before the kids saw it.
  
  The guy who did that is a scumbag, and I don't know what they could possibly accomplish by doing this.

  I hope no kids saw this but that seems a bit far-fetched for the vast world that is the internet.
