  • Ok, buddy… Try that argument out on the cops when you get busted for having nudes of teenagers on your phone… “The traditional view is that teenagers are adults-in-training; I was clearly just allowing them to gain valuable adult experience.”

    I bet the judge would absolutely adore that argument. I’m sure they’d see things your way.


  • I dunno, maybe I’m in the minority here (hope not) but I don’t ever recall hearing about any child rapist/molester - regardless of the depths of their depravity, how prolific they were/are, etc. - and thinking “wow, they must be an absolute sexual tyrannosaurus rex; I should subscribe to their newsletter”… Like, there isn’t an amount of nine year olds you can pay/coerce/cajole/force into sex (which, again, is by definition rape as minor do not possess the ability to consent) that is somehow going to impress me. Or anyone who isn’t a piece of shit, for that matter.

    So… That’s a pretty weird point to make, honestly…

    Can we arrange to have their parents come in and ask them what they’d do if they were ordered to jump off a bridge?

    Ya know, just in a little extra bit of effort to kinda hammer the point home?

    Well, maybe not their parents (cuz they’re probably racist pieces of shit too), but like… Like Tom Hanks, maybe? He seems like he could properly portray the level of “I’m not even mad at you, I’m just disappointed, son” this requires.
