According to some random Brazilian weeaboo news site, 21-year-old Bowd was supposedly more specifically arrested for having a 2023 tactical role-playing game installed on his phone, which contains “almost [sexually] explicit” scenes with “[sexualized little girl] characters”. Now whether Bowd was actually arrested for having that specific game on his phone remains “unconfirmed”, but what I’m much more certain of is that Bowd is in all likelihood currently having a cringe-induced out-of-body experience, and his mom probably is, too.
That Brazilian weeaboo news site also claims without anything to back it up that “”““most people are outraged””“” at Bowd’s arrest, and shows five supposed comments from anonymous average netizens. Most of these comments are just thinly-veiled pedo talking points which are only really useful as jumping-off points for explaining why they’re wrong, but the first comment was, “How did they know? Did they see him playing?” — which I’m honestly kinda curious about myself. Because either the Gardaí did what I’d consider to really be a pretty severe violation of this guy’s privacy, or he just fuckin busted out the pedo anime sex game in the middle of getting inspected by Homeland Security at an international airport, As You Do™.
In any case, though:
womp womp :anime-cool:
Honestly fears of having my own phone checked are a fairly big reason why I don’t intend to return to Seppoland this year myself.
knew a guy who was lucky while getting his phone checked because the officers somehow didn’t notice the several images of him holding guns (neither the country he was from or going to were gun friendly)
