The new “legal principles” document starts with another introduction from Edwin Cameron, a retired South African judge who notes how his experience as a “gay man” helped inform his work on this project.
“From long years in the law, and as a proudly gay man, I know profoundly how criminal law signals which groups are deemed worthy of protection – and which of condemnation and ostracism,” he wrote. “In this way, the criminal law performs an expressive function – and it has dramatic consequences on people’s lives. It sometimes entails a harshly discriminatory impact on groups identified with the disapproved or stigmatised conduct.”

And Comet Pizza was just a restaurant
I believe this is a needlessly fiery headline and a misrepresentation.
It decriminalized sex when BOTH participants were minors. If one is an adult it is still illegal.
United Nations has over stayed it’s welcome. Kick them out and turn the build into a luxury hotel. The UN can move to another country if they want it
That’s the next step
The slippery slope is real.
When those UN members get filled with caviar, lobster and fillet mignon and drunk on Champaign, they need young boys to fill their sexual needs. Its a wonder they don’t demand a covered throne to carry them out to the action.
I can’t imagine how bad they stink! Worse then what I scrape off the bottom of my shoe from their well-pampered dogs.
Throw the bums out of America!
When both participants in sex are minors then who is the guilty party?
For me it is not easy to decide.
When one is an adult then it is easy.
But that's the essence of the slippery slope. The UN is trying to get to the "simple" point that -- Minors enjoy sex; Minors are entitled to have sex; there is nothing wrong when Minors have sex.
Get that accomplished as a "simple" fact of life.
THEN bring an adult into the picture. Hey, it's just a little bit different -- you're not one of those prudes are you???
God, It’s time.
Please, soon.
Disband!!
From the article:
In this context, the enforcement of criminal law should reflect the rights and capacity of persons under 18 years of age to make decisions about engaging in consensual sexual conduct and their right to be heard in matters concerning them.
It does not specify sex between children. If an adult convinces a child to copulate then it is ok.
Sodom and Gomorrah were amateurs compared to today’s society.
I don’t agree.
Islam condones child marriages.
There are nations upon nations, all turd world nations, that all accept child brides. Why? Mohamed their model man had ayesha marrying her at six, deflowered her at nine.
Pakistan tried to outlaw the practice and the parliament deemed it to be unislamic. The controlling block of the UN is the OIC.
Jihadi heaven has loads of young boys, scattered like pearls across the floor.
It is not tradition, but codified.
After all and above all, Mohamed was the model man that all should aspire to emulate.
Now these retarded ingrates want to impose their successful ways on the developed world.
Screw that.
Let the obamanites rot in their retardation.
I think this whole minor sex thing, if accepted and passed, then the truth about Epstein and who all where involved will be released but those participants cannot be held accountable because it is now legal.
Spot on the life of the left on display.
invite their departure...
