I'm curious though, what kind of person actually reads such material, if not a paedophile.


Well that depends what it was since all we know is that some guy at a customs office considered it child pornograpy, could just be some high school manga with a few risque scenes or it could be full on loli hentai.  If it's the second than yes he's a paedophile, but if he doesn't act out on his desires I see no reason he should be punushed for thinking whatever he wants long as the material wasn't made by exploiting children (which it wasn't) then the law shouldn't have a say.

But if it really was lolicon then shouldn't he be forced to at least see a psychiatrist. I mean, today he reads a lolicon mag, tomorrow he rapes a pre-schooler. It's not as if porn prevents people from commiting such crimes.

Only if you assume that having such thoughts means he will definitely act them out in the future.  By that right every person that is into furries should go to counseling so they don't commit beastiality, or anyone with a rape fantasy should be on the sexual offenders list.  I know some would say that we could prevent crimes this way, but you can't punish people for what they fantasize about based on what you think they most likely will do in the future.
