So the whole sex email scandal rumbles on in America and I'm glad to see that the Democrats are keeping it in perspective...
Something really pissed me off about this... the word "Pedophile" is mentioned. Several times. Now excuse me if I'm wrong but I believe the age of consent in D.C. is 16? And that, in fact, no sex actually occured involving anyone that young anyway? So erm... "pedophile"???? WHAT THE FUCK?! For years us gays have had to put up with the pedarist/pedophilie accusations. Enough is enough. The Democrats are just as bloody homophobic as the Republicans!
Now get him for sexual harassment or something like that but don't fucking call him a paedophile (I couldn't continue spelling it US style, it looks silly).
Oh and to be perfectly honest what those who are above the age of consent do with each other be it sex or just smutty emails shouldn't really bother anyone else... so Democrats move on and actually find yourself a platform to fight Bush and the GOP!!! Stop relying on smut peddling...
For once I'm secretly hoping the Democrats are fucked over at the mid terms...
Come on Libertarian Party...
I agree with your rant however the US justice system is just as screwed up as ours when it comes to sexual offences. In many instances the US age of consent is 16. However I understand that in the law regarding communicating with a minor for immoral purposes, a minor is deemed as under 18 not 16?!
ReplyDeleteIt's much like our fucked up law which says if you're 19 you can have sex with your 17 year old girlfriend, but if you take a picture of her puppies on your camera phone - you are a sex offender - go directly to jail - do not pass go.
