Bottom line, the 17 year old won’t be messing with the 15 year old again.

"Your definition of a man is someone who assaults a child on school property in front of other children?"I'd submit, as the father of two daughters, that if this kid was 'man' enough to screw the guy's 15 year old daughter........he's no "child".
To: Chanticleer
I don't think you can lay all the blame at his feet. If she were my daughter, we'd have a lot of talking to do. Good point ...it a rough time after the initial anger and the rationality occurs.

Almost.
Judging from the posts here cheering on the father's assault of a minor, and the statistics of teen promiscuity, I would expect thousands more of these cases to occur daily. The reality, fortunately, is that most of us aren't that stupid.

Age of consent laws (apparently sixteen in NH) that make it statutory rape between two high school students only two years apart in age are ridiculousAnd yet, when I was sixteen, these laws were enforced by the State of New York, and they were clear, comprehensible, and didn't cause any major social disruption.
Almost every attempt to lower the age of consent in US jurisdictions fails, so the People, at least to the extent that they speak through their representatives, favor age of consent laws.
As they used to say, "Fifteen will get you twenty".
Easy to understand, it's the law.
What's the problem?

My dad lied about his age and joined the Navy at 16. Nice to meet you.
My dad also expected all of his children to take responsiblity for their actions. I'm sure you do, too.

I'd submit, as the father of two daughters, that if this kid was 'man' enough to screw the guy's 15 year old daughter........he's no "child". By that definition, a boy of 13 would also have been 'man' enough as well. Would the father also have been justified in whaling on a 13 year old, just because his junk works?
To: VaBthang4
I'm telling you, we had a woman sentenced to a year in prison, not probation, for the misdemeanor of trespassing on a bus and contributing to the delinquency of a minor for encouraging her daughter to beat up another girl who had slapped her previously. There were no injuries. This guy committed a felony. A minor had stitches.
You just don't know how a court or jury is going to rule. I wouldn't want my family's security to ride on it.

Instant justice--instead of having to play the "mother may I?" game of our current judiciary system...

“And yet, when I was sixteen, these laws were enforced by the State of New York, and they were clear, comprehensible, and didn’t cause any major social disruption.”
In what percentage of the cases of teen sex between sixteen or seventeen year-olds and fourteen or fifteen year-olds do you think those laws were enforced?
You have cases of a boy and girl in the same grade, only a few months apart in age. Do you think in such cases someone should be charged with statutory rape?
I’m not saying the age of consent should changed, but it should protect teenagers from adults, not from other teens and schoolmates who freely choose to date each other.

If one level headed person on the jury votes innocent there will be no prison.
To: Chanticleer
He wont be able to protect his daughter from prison. He's not going to jail, the kid will not press charges, the kid is looking at a long jail term for rap of a minor.

Im not saying the age of consent should changed, but it should protect teenagers from adults, not from other teens and schoolmates who freely choose to date each other.The purpose of age of consent laws is not "to protect teenagers from adults", any more than the purpose of no driver's licenses for fifteen year olds is to protect them from adults.
The laws are to protect them from themselves.
And dating fifteen year olds wasn't illegal when I was sixteen - having sex with them was.
I understand that "dating" has become a euphemism for vaginal intercourse, but it was not always the case.
I'm prepared to listen to arguments why these laws should be repealed - but not to arguments that they shouldn't be enforced.
