No comment.

[CAWats]

Some Democrats may be OK with it.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Waiting for the obligatory knee-jerk Libertarian comment.

[tigtog]

Well here is a group deserving of special attention. Do the police track who are members of a group proposing screw young boys? I think this would be a real "clue" for those in law enforcement, to maybe hang around find out who belongs to the party.

[RoadTest]

That once proud nation is terminally ill.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Who do they think they are?

American school teachers?

[Tribune7]

Islam might actually improve that place.

Song: Anything Goes

[RENO]
Times have changed,
And we've often rewound the clock,
Since the Puritans got a shock,
When they landed on Plymouth Rock.
If today,
Any shock they should try to stem,
'Stead of landing on Plymouth Rock,
Plymouth Rock would land on them.

In olden days a glimpse of stocking
Was looked on as something shocking,
But now, God knows,
Anything Goes.

Good authors too who once knew better words,
Now only use four letter words
Writing prose, Anything Goes.

The world has gone mad today
And good's bad today,
And black's white today,
And day's night today,
When most guys today
That women prize today
Are just silly gigolos
And though I'm not a great romancer
I know that I'm bound to answer
When you propose,
Anything goes

When grandmama whose age is eighty
In night clubs is getting matey with gigolo's,
Anything Goes.

When mothers pack and leave poor father
Because they decide they'd rather be tennis pros,
Anything Goes.

If driving fast cars you like,
If low bars you like,
If old hymns you like,
If bare limbs you like,
If Mae West you like
Or me undressed you like,
Why, nobody will oppose!
When every night,
The set that's smart
Is intruding in nudist parties in studios,
Anything Goes.

[RENO, PASSENGERS & CREW]
The world has gone mad today
And good's bad today,
And black's white today,
And day's night today,
When most guys today
That women prize today
Are just silly gigolos
And though I'm not a great romancer
I know that I'm bound to answer
When you propose,
Anything goes

[RENO]
If saying your prayers you like,
If green pears you like
If old chairs you like,
If back stairs you like,
If love affairs you like
With young bears you like,
Why nobody will oppose!

[ALL]
And though I'm not a great romancer
And though I'm not a great romancer
I know that I'm bound to answer
When you propose,
Anything goes...
Anything goes!

[Kimmers]

I am seriously nauseated....

Toddlers should be given sex education and youths aged 16 and up should be allowed to appear in pornographic films and prostitute themselves. Sex with animals should be allowed although abuse of animals should remain illegal, the NVD said.

These are all lifestyle choices, and kids are a lot smarter than adults give them credit for. Besides, we have a medical system there for the suicide, depression and AIDS that will result, so why worry?

I hope I don't need to write "sarc" but these days...

[bpjam]

Well, my specific prediction actually was that we would see a political lobby group set up to protect pedophiles but this pretty much covers what I predicted. As soon as we saw people lobbying to have special rights to perform sodomy, it was only one short step before we are going to be asked to give constitutional protection to pedophiles, bestiality, polygamy and anything else imaginable. None of them has any moral authority over the other.

And I'm sure there are perverts here who are looking at the Dutch with envy. In the US they can just fold the out of the closest child rapists into the GLBT lobby by just adding a "P" for Pedophilia.

[Jeff Chandler]

If this becomes legal, will our annointed rulers in the Supreme Court use these laws as a guide for our own?

[ChadGore]

[Aquinasfan]

"A ban just makes children curious,"

Which is a worse fate than being sodomized. Makes sense if you're possessed.

[far sider]

The party's program also includes ideas for other areas of public policy including legalizing all soft and hard drugs and free train travel for all. The party also said everybody should be allowed to go naked in public. Toddlers should be given sex education and youths aged 16 and up should be allowed to appear in pornographic films and prostitute themselves. Sex with animals should be allowed although abuse of animals should remain illegal, the NVD said.

Well at least, they're compromising some.

[mad puppy]

Are there any parents left in the Netherlands?

Surely any normal parent will vote against this, right? Where do these whack-jobs get their 12, 13, and 14 year old kids now? At what point do they then vote that all the kids at some age MUST be subject to them if the parents don't allow their own kids this "freedom"?

As the father of 5, there are a few things that I get killing-angry about. Mess with my kids, and bad things will happen. I always thought that was just a parent-DNA thing, but maybe I'm wrong.

[GOPJ]

"We want to make pedophilia the subject of discussion," he said,

It's well known on the left that if anything can be talked about on a national level, moral barriers come down.

It's why there's no talk of second amendment rights here or anywhere, anymore. And it's why there's much talk of homosexual rights. Here there and everywhere.

The more pedophilia is discussed, rather than shunned or condemned, the more it will become a part of the culture -- and the equivalent of a "he said - she said" twisted equivalence.

We live in sick times.

It's time to start discussing the death penalty for pedophiles.

[kittymyrib]

Sodom, Gomorrah, Amsterdam?

[GOPJ]

Debate for a mandatory death penalty for pedophiles has started. Which side are you on?

[unlearner]

It might be of interest to point out that the modern age of consent laws originated with feminism, not Judeo-Christianity, as is commonly assumed.

If memory serves me correctly, I believe that at the beginning of our nation, the age of consent was as low as eight in some states.

Biblical morality has more to do with lifelong, heterosexual monogamy which begins after entering into a marriage covenant. Such a marriage requires the consent of the parties and minimally the consent of the girl's father.

Feminists persuaded society in the late eighteen hundreds that young girls' morality was at risk apart from a standardized age of consent law. Before this, if an older man had extramarital sexual relations with a young girl, it was primarily his word against hers over whether she consented. After the laws, consent did not matter because she was not considered able to give it (even if she was considered old enough to live away from home and work in a factory.)

The practical outcome of this type of law was not so much the protection of the innocence of young girls, or even the criminalization of their exploiters. It was that it robbed parents of their rightful role in giving their blessing to relationships AFTER the age of consent. Gradually, age of consent has come to mean the age after which anything goes (morally speaking).

In one sense, age of consent laws ought to be opposed by those who support biblical morality. In another sense, perhaps they should be supported with the stipulation that the age of consent is somewhere around seventy.

It is not morally possible to consent to doing something that is intrinsically evil, no matter what the age.

[virginiaspook]

Yep, this is where moral relativism leads. Who am I to judge - or to say what's right or wrong?

I'm dying to see their campaign posters!

Sheesh! This is sick!
