You're one of those guys on Dateline NBC, aren't you?

So you’d be kewl with it if she were 12? Eight? Six?

Case-by-case basis. Not all 14-year-olds are created equal. To be clear here, I'm not talking about the legalities, but rather my sense of whether or not the the precious little snowflake is the "victim" here or in this particular case is engaged in consensual relations. How do you know that she isn't old enough to have informed consent?

I have made the same mistake about Canada's age of consent. This in posting about Bountiful BC, which is FLDS. I am a dedicated newspaper reader as well.

Could be under reported though. Lots of the Canadian press do not like anything that pleases conservative thought.

That's the whole point of Lolita; the precious little fourteen year old was more the aggressor than Humbert Humbert. She's taken the whole thing more or less in stride.

However, Reese seemed awfully casual about the prospect of a 14 year old getting pregnant. I sorry, but getting a 14 year old pregnant is not something that I'm comfortable with, and a 27 year-old man who takes advantage of a 14 year old is still a creep imo.

“The solution to this story is to load up the shotgun and have a wedding, not throw Romeo in jail for 30 years. “

So, if I am going to a rape a young girl I should at least pick a looker cause I get to keep after I do rape her??? Boy, that ought to make her dad happy: “I raped your daughter so I get to keep her.”

It's believed that the two were traveling in a bright yellow 2008 Chevy Aveo, Alabama license plate OMGROFL.

Well, at least the genius won't be very hard to spot.

"Hey! What's the big deal? It's not like he did anything wrong!"

I sorry, but getting a 14 year old pregnant is not something that I'm comfortable with, and a 27 year-old man who takes advantage of a 14 year old is still a creep imo.

In general, it's probably not the best thing, but my point is that not everyone is Harvard-bound and that relations between older people and younger ones is not categorically wrong but depends the level of consent in the relationship. You have right to your opinion but I don't think in this particular case the 14 year old was taken advantage of.

You're covered. Idaho's law says:

18-4504. PUNISHMENT -- LIBERATION OF KIDNAPPED PERSON. 1. Every person guilty of kidnapping in the first degree shall suffer death or be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for life

Those aren't potatoes they're throwing.
