Sexting in Jersey

The New Jersey legislature is considering a couple of bills which would allow teens to send dirty pics to each other without winding up in jail.

If only every article started with this phrase:

Recognizing that teenagers who e-mail nude or sexually suggestive photos of themselves to friends aren't really child pornographers…

The bills make exceptions to harsh child porn laws when the people producing, distributing, and/or consuming the pics are minors, while shoehorning in (likely useless) anti-sexting education measures designed to make adults feel less icky about the whole situation.
