You've been on at least two threads recently where consentual was explained to you and why children and animals can't legally give consent. Either you are one of the most disingenuous posters here or you have severe old-timers disease.

Get another schtick or move on.

And I’ve dismissed your logic with facts and proof you’re wrong. Care to debate your hypocrisy starting with incest? Or are only capable of moronic sophistry?

BTW no answer for the 10th amendment hummm???

Relieve your boredom! Be jaded no longer! Tune in at 8 PM on Mega-Progressive Ideologue-TV for the weekly consensual pay-per-view presentation of Colossal Consensual Gladiatorial Combat to the Consensual Death For That Consensual Million Dollar Prize, where you, the consensual audience, get to vote electronically with a consensual thumbs up or a consensual thumbs down! Join in all the consensual fun, where only the consensual contestants consensually lose their unvalued, alienable lives! Laugh at the consensual death-throes! Joke at the consensual contortions! Bet on the consensual blood! Take a calloused, inured, and consensual stab for liberty!

(Tell your cable operator: 'I want my Mega-Progressive Ideologue-TV, you judgmental statist!')

Most of those distinctions don't hold water. The "age of consent" is one of those fluid things that make the entire "consensual" argument useless. Another is that parents regularly impose behaviors on their children to which the children don't consent. It is considered good parenting. In point of fact, many in the pervert realm are trying to create scientific arguments that the best way to introduce a young person to erotic activity is to have an adult teach him/her. They are arguing this is good parenting.

WRT pets, there are many times I call my dog when she wouldn't otherwise want to come. But she obeys. Is that consensual? If not, is it an abuse of my dog? Training my dog to live well in my household might not have been her idea, but it is generally accepted as a good practice. Someone into bestiality might argue that it is a net positive to teach his dog to have sex with him. If the dog didn't complain, would it be consensual? Would it be for the good of the dog since it is a requirement to integrate into that home?

The big problem with the "consensual" argument is that it is arbitrarily defined by us. It is not "unalienable" and therefore not supportable. Our rights need to be based on "unalienable rights" or our Republican experiment is useless.

Shalom.
