Why do you call Foley a pedophile rather than a homosexual?

Does he have to be one or the other?
I think he's both.

Washington D.C. Age of Consent = 16
http://www.sodomylaws.org/usa/dc/dcdocuments04.htm
[snip]
Section 30-103 of the D. C. Code defines the Age of Consent as 16. While that Section then goes on to apply that definition to marriage, the definition is clearly a more general one.

That Section was enacted in 1901. Thus this is deeply embedded in Washington law, having been in effect for almost a century, and possibly reflecting older District law. It is nothing new or recent.

The age of 16 is woven as a thread which pervades the entire body of D. C. law relating to sexual offenses of various kinds. For examp1es (there are others):
As indicated above, the current Sodomy law, which this Bill amends, draws a clear line at age 16.
Section 22-3501 creates a number of sexual offenses when one of the participants is below age 16, which are not offenses if involving only persons over 16.
Section 22-1112b creates a much heightened offense if certain things a sexual nature are said or done in the presence of persons below the age 16.
Section 22-2801- Rape effectively sets the defining age for so-called "statutory rape" in the District as 16.
Sections 22-2011(2), 2012(1) and (2), and 22014(a), dea1ing with "Sexua1 Performances", permit such performances by persons 16 and older.
Section 22-2704, dea1ing with certain prostitution-related offenses, incorporates an age of 16.

The applicable criminal laws might be drafted to call this guy a pedophile, but he's a homosexual pederast: preying on adolescent minors of the same sex.

[Twinkie]

Preying on young men, barely more than boys, in their teenage years. Let the light of TRUTH shine on ALL and may it disinfect everywhere it shines.
