I agree with you it’s absurd but I think 16 is old enough. The infantilization of America continues apace but it is one with the ever increasing nanny state.

My grandparents had mastered Shakespeare and trigonometry by the 9th grade upon which they graduated and got jobs. They were married at 17 and had kids at 19. This was all done in hill country. Oh did I mention the war that his younger brother lied about his age to get into?

If it pertains to parents paying for something, then the kids are minors until age 26.

If its licentious behavior then the kids are adults at 16, 17, 18.

Shaun King is the white guy pretending to be black who is a forefront member/proponent of #blacklivesmatter.

For the WaPo, being a white Louisiana sheriff is enough to brand someone a racist. Those are all the facts they need. It’s all about racial stereotyping, and that’s where their thought process ends.

You think the Obama era media gives a damn about the truth when they can fan the flames of racial hatred for the slightest reason?

Except, not only was the girl charged as well, she was charged first.

And as clearly explained, if the ages were reversed, she would have been additionally charged.

Well, we can’t have the facts getting in the way of a good lie. And in the climate of political correctness today, everything is racists.

Before phones there were Polaroid cameras. The sin is in man not the tools.

"...This 'star athelete' is a sexual predator..."

...Of white girls.

We used to protect our most vulnerable against this sort of predator, and I resent the desire to protect them from this type of criminal being portrayed as "rayciss", because it is not.

It is simply maintaining minimum standards.
