medusa 0 #26 September 30, 2005 Don't get me wrong. I'm not a pedofilic. And I agree with you people 20 and over daiting 15 year old or less, they should kill them or lock them down. I'm talking about normal human being relationship a 19 year old guy with a 17 year old girld. So if there is a couple daiting the girl is 16 and the guy is 17. he is soupoused to broke up with her when he turn 18??? .Medusa Get Killed or Die Trying!

diverborg 0 #27 September 30, 2005 QuoteIt shouldnt be about following the rules, it should be about being a decent human being. A child is a child is a child. I would spend the rest of my life in jail to protect my children from people like you. Who think it is okay to pray on innocent , vulnarable CHILDREN.Quote Awww c'mon anyone that speaks three languages can't be a bad guy. Anyway, not trying to defend the behavior, but it is viewed entirely differently in other countries even western Europe. Pedophilia is one thing, but sixteen, seventeen err ok. I don't like the idea myself, still way too immature, but many developed countries view this as a legal adult age. And in many countries, girls at this age act like adults. I met this girl in Germany from Lithuania once. I didn't have the intentions of picking her up, but we met at a bar and soon became friends for the time I was over there. We hung out often and she was very brilliant, we had very in depth conversations and it wasn't until several weeks later that I found out she was only seventeen. I felt so guilty that I couldn't even continue talking to her on the phone let alone see her. She and her friends didn't understand why this was a problem for me and either did some other older people that I made friends with over there. There was an obvious maturity difference between a her and a normal teenager in the states. I can usually tell people's ages pretty easy, but I thought she was lying when she told me how old she was. Oh yeah, for the record, I was only 22 at the time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites airtwardo 7 #28 September 30, 2005 QuoteDon't get me wrong. I'm not a pedofilic.

Didn't there used to be a distiction between pedophilia and statutory rape? I don't know which this guy alledgedly committed, and I am certainly not defending his actions. I just have heard the threads speak of the two interchangeably, and wondered why. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites skycop 0 #50 October 1, 2005 There is a distinction between the two. If a 19 year old boinks a 15 year old, that's statutory rape so to speak. This situation is not uncommon and many times it is not actively prosecuted, unless someone pushes very hard (like a parent) to have it go forward. BUT, a 40 year old man having sex with a 14 year old is pedophilia. I thought i made that clear in my post. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

I could tell stories that would make most people on here vomit. Pm me and I'll expand. The guy deserves what he gets. For every pedophile they catch, several are probally successful in the encounter. I can't remember the exact stats, but the reporting rate is less than 20% ( I think) for child sexual abuse. I'd rather write tickets, fight drunks, or listen to people bitch (what we do in patrol) than deal with these sick bastards. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Didn't there used to be a distiction between pedophilia and statutory rape? I don't know which this guy alledgedly committed, and I am certainly not defending his actions. I just have heard the threads speak of the two interchangeably, and wondered why. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skycop 0 #50 October 1, 2005 There is a distinction between the two. If a 19 year old boinks a 15 year old, that's statutory rape so to speak. This situation is not uncommon and many times it is not actively prosecuted, unless someone pushes very hard (like a parent) to have it go forward. BUT, a 40 year old man having sex with a 14 year old is pedophilia. I thought i made that clear in my post. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
