Like drunk driving, which MADD and the mainstream media treat as a capital offense unless the accused is a pro athlete, sex with underaged girls is considered worse than murder by nearly everyone in our society, again unless one is a pro athlete. Oddly, pro athletes just happen to be unjustly accused of this offense on a frequent basis. Presumably, there are a lot of Lolitas out there willing to lie to these poor, unsuspecting multi-millionaires.
THERE ARE LOTS OF MALES SERVING LENGTHY PRISON TERMS FOR HAVING CONSENSUAL SEX WITH A 16 YEAR OLD WHEN THEY WERE 18. If LT was an unkown "troubled" middle-aged black man, he would be spending the rest of his life behind bars for this. But he is a black celebrity, and they "don't do prison." The sickening forces that run Don King's America will see that he escapes justice.
Sorry for this long post as it's almost an essay:
I wanted to state my opinions on how much I was disgusted by the American legal system and my experience with how different the social moral laws are up here in Canada compared to the U.S.
Strangely the age of consent here in Canada is 14- which I think is a problem. The Netherlands used to have an age of consent of 14 (if I'm not mistaken) before changing it to 16- which is what I think Canada should do. Spain has an age of consent of a ridiculous 13 years old, but in Spain a father would get a slap on the wrist for beating to a pulp a full grown man who had sex with his daughter that age- (as I would do myself- although I think the Canadian legal system is less forgiving of vengeful violence for crimes to ones family). I think Bulgaria and a few other European countries have an age of consent of 14, but the typical Euro age of consent as well as in Australia is 16.
Bigunreal, speaking of 18 year olds having sex with 16 year olds and getting locked up in the U.S, I think that is complete BS. I have little faith in the "police" state down in the U.S- after I was falsely arrested and roughed up by a very large cop (who thought I was high after I had a panic attack as he probed me with multiple questions and patted me down) simply for sleeping in my car in a parking lot after getting tired on my way home from a rough day at work- instead of being dangerous and continuing to drive (happened early last march).
The U.S currently locks up a higher percentage of its citizens (around 1%) than EVERY COUNTRY ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH (including those "crazy"Â Muslim countries, or communist North Korea or China). The legal system is also so full of hypocrisy and money making off of petty offenses down there, it's boiled over to the point of a nuclear explosion. I am so disgusted by how I was treated in NJ by people and by the "police"Â state that I don't think I'll ever set foot in the U.S again.
My cousin (who I think might have Aspergers), who I got very close to when I lived in my aunt and uncle's garage apartment- is a very nice guy with social difficulty and anxiety- like I used to have. He has been wronged in Jersey as much or more than I was. He was brought by some "friends"Â for his 21st birthday down to Atlantic City for a drinking trip and to see a sex show with people being paid to have sex. Some of his "friends"Â aren't literally friends and pick on him for being a virgin and after talking to him I can tell you he has had it rougher with getting picked on and with girls than even I did before I met my wife.
All his "friends"Â put money together and told him to get a hooker for his birthday. He got a hotel room with 3 of his friends and called a "so called" escort service and an undercover female cop showed up (I kid you not) at the hotel and he was arrested on his 21st birthday when he tried to solicited her for sex and was then roughed up by two male cops who showed up. What did these "friends"Â do, they stood by and blamed all of this on him! Meanwhile the hardcore porn industry in California and the sex shows in Atlantic City (although much less so) make billions of dollars off of having lonely men (some of them virgins like my cousin) pay to watch these "studs" have sex while they can get arrested and beaten for the same thing (despite being underdogs and making no money off of dealing to addicts like the porn moguls do).
This is the DISGUSTING issue with the U.S, if the government can't make money off of some "minor" petty indulgence they will criminalize it so they can make money off of it legally (unless you're a corporation (making money off of addicts) or a politician or police officer doing the exact same thing). But when you count all the people getting locked up it hurts the economy in the long run. It costs money to pay for confinement of criminals and you don't come out a better person after going to jail and possibly "dropping the soap" in the shower there. The U.S is staunchly anti-Christian, anti-white, anti-male and anti-underdog more than any first world country I can think of- and that probably even includes Norway and Sweden.
It used to be that most men and women got married young and waited until marriage for sex, but those who didn't usually did the deed with a hooker. Now in this sex crazed materialistic age (in a sense you could say gold diggers and "playas"Â are prostitutes themselves, just the "cool"Â version) it's just the opposite- and those that don't follow this "norm"Â are often picked on for being different until they "get with the program"Â.
And for you Christians that believe in the U.S; Even in the bible Jesus saved Mary Magdelin from being stoned to death for being a prostitute and forgave her. But the U.S is the least forgiving (western country) legal system that I can think of and by far the most hypocritical legal system IN THE WORLD.
Getting back to the age of consent in Canada thing, I researched the "supposed" reasons behind it. 18 year olds are sometimes in H.S at the same time as 14 year olds which is supposedly one of the reasons for decriminalizing what should be statutory rape. In most western countries- including the U.S- you are eligible to work at 14 and can be charged for serious crimes as an adult at 14. At 14 you start H.S and have the mental fortitude to study things like Geometry and Biology in school. The other study behind this was that supposedly at 14 it is "unlikely" that sex with a much older person would cause serious psychological damage such as causing the person to be suicidal and the person is old enough to reason their decisions. Still, I think for a middle aged man (or woman) to be able to have sex with a 14 year old and get off scot free is morally wrong and sets a dangerous precedent.
However, since I have no faith in police, jails or publicly revealed criminal records (which makes it very hard to find jobs) rehabilitating people- this is how I would change the law if I were Prime minister of Canada. Age of consent for 14 would be 12, for 15 and 16 would be 13, for 17- 14 and for 18 (the drinking age in some provinces)- 15 and for 19 (the drinking age in Ontario) and above- 16. First offense for an adult 18 or over who commits statutory rape of a person under 16 (15 for 18 year olds), but 14 or over would be given a sealed record misdemeanor for first offense with the goal of rehabilitation (a fine, community service, psychological evaluation etc.) and only second offense would they do any jail time.
I have little faith in the American legal system and the lock up state down there. After seeing me and my cousin- who I am close to and one of the nicest guys you could ever meet wrongfully arrested, I can tell you a liberal legal system is better than an outrageously conservative and radically hypocritical one.
Another problem is the crazy drug laws down south. It is theorized that "at least"Â more than half (conservative estimates) of American adults over 18, born in 1950 or after have "puffed the magic dragon" (lol) at least once. In the U.S- they are now admitting that Marijuana is useful medicinally for some medical conditions, but they still lock people up for something that the majority of adults (and probably almost half the cops themselves) have tried. Making marijuana possession a crime- brings the price of pot up and causes crimes to be committed over marijuana due to monetary reasons. Only possession of hard core drugs should be criminalized, and even for these, you shouldn't go to jail for possession for "first offense"Â.
The legal system is so broken down in the U.S that I am appalled. I think the Canadian legal system in some regards is too liberal, but on marijuana and prostitution (the latter I think we're a little too conservative) we have stopped the EXTREME hypocrisy that goes on south of the border. Heck Hollyweird makes money off of marijuana movies that cops themselves quote for humour's sake. The hardcore porn industry makes billions of dollars and almost got a "bailout"Â from Obama, yet (down there) 40 year old virgin porn addicts who buy sex even once can be arrested, beaten and locked up. That is unless you're in a position of power like the governour of NY, who prosecuted prostitution himself before getting off scot free for buying one. To me this is as bad as saying lets let dealers make billions of dollars off of dealing cocaine, but arrest and lock up an addict with even a gram of it.
Is there any more that you American Caste Footballers can do to speak out about these EXTREME double standards?
