there are 2 lines that people go over as I see it....
the post-pubescent and the pre-pubescent.
just pubescent or pre-pubescent is so far removed from anything acceptable to ellict folks to want to string these bastards up by their yarbles.....
post pubescent....eg she was 16 going on 32 is pedophilia in america and rightly so...but we have to look at a few things....first of all...if a person is 21 and oogles, or dare I say date a 16 year old is this truly pedophila....One can say this is for the courts to decide...
Up until the mid 20th century in this country it was ok to date and marry someone who had surpased puberty...their age was determined by their apparent 'filling out' into their adult bodies.....some states have the age of consent many years younger than other states....
so yes the frog who wanted a bugger boy (or girl for that matter) of 10 years old in exchange for a new tire...should be publicly castrated.....but as the age of the young person increases there are grey areas.....
just my $0.02
There seem to be few gray areas here ~ more like 6 months old, lenient French laws on pedophilia, compliant, if not corrupt, cops, social welfare specialists who are no longer able to tell right from wrong, and we could go on and on and on.
There is no gray area when a child is sold into prostitution by his or her parents and/or forced into incestual acts, age of the minor victim notwithstanding.
Your agenda doesn't fit this crime.
LOL - get real...My wife was 16 and I was 21 when we married.
In our attempts to explain this horrible tradgedy, we need to be sure not to confuse the facts of what has taken place here with what is considered socially acceptable.
1. Parents are supposed to PROTECT their children from harm, plain and simple!
2. There are absolutely NO gray areas here,this is not a matter of young children having conceptual relationships with older men, it is young children, some not even able to walk yet, being forced to have sex with their own parents!!
