No Hank, what you said when you started this was:
"FSP, the supporters of having sex with children, as young as 6, maybe younger, not exactly my type of society."
OK, fine I guess I should have said: "FSP, while they may not endorse sex with children, they won't specifically define what having sex with a child is and further they have no laws against it or punishment for it, because even tho they don't personally agree with it, it is not their place judge or force their "Puritan" values on anyone else" ---Is that better?
To which I stated:
"And by the way, libertarians can at least agree that the ONE legitimate government function is to protect the week from the predations of the stronger. And children would certainly fit into that former category. If you were once the libertarian you claim, you would have recognized that and seen any deviation from it as anything but normal or representative."
Yet you refuse to define what a child is.
I then went on to say however that if I were fourteen and an older woman slept with me I would have felt about the opposite of "victimized." And that the woman should not be prosecuted for something that did me no harm--and, in fact, something that actually made me a whole lot happier for. This is a case where blanket underage laws trample the rights of individuals and a clear example of how unchecked government will inevitably move toward unwieldy gigantism and clumsily begin to step on the very people it was originally designed to serve.
Whether or not it would have made you happier is irrelevant. You don't know it would have made you happier, she could have been some psycho who did things to you didn't want, she could have given you a disease, you could have gotten her pregnant - that is not a decision for a 14yr old to be making. Sure, plenty of 18yr olds do stupid things too, once again, I don't claim a perfect age, but I most definitely would lock that sick bitch up and if you were ever putting the moves on a 14yr old I'd say do the same to you.
We've created a monster that is out of our control. And that I have to sit here and explain that to you makes me wonder how you could ever have thought about being a libertarian. What exactly were you thinking? I sure don't want to convince you to be a libertarian, obviously you don't "get it," nor will you ever. And in that semi-mythical future where we may have a place to live in under the tenants of our own values I sure do not want to have to be dragging guys like you along with me.
Boinking 14yr olds is "one of our values", funny, I've never heard Ron Paul say that one, and if that is the kind of shit you guys are selling then yeah, I'm not with you and never will be.
Since then you've attempted to pull every trick in the book, including misquoting, misrepresentation, convolution of intent of statement, and finally out-and-out physical harm in order to bully people into bowing to your self-righteousness.
When? You've clearly stated you feel a woman who sleeps with a 14yr should not be punished, you further refused to state an age where you feel no way no how should it be allowed - do tell how I've misquoted you or any of that other stuff you claim.
You insist on reading people's minds and then telling them that what they're REALLY thinking is that they would approve of the most deviant behavior that can be cooked up in some demented person's mind (uh, Hank) and refuse to acknowledge that in some cases the blanket laws as they are can result in tragic consequences.
Again, when was this? Wasn't it you talking about screwing people's sisters and what not? I never made any statement relating to blanket laws, I suggested 18 was a good number, I left the floor open for other opinions, I fully stated some common sense should be used as in an 18yr old and a 17yr old type situation, and I certainly never tried any violence on anyone. I was pointing out what would happen in a private society if 30yr olds were trying to get with 16yr olds or younger.
The basis of your argument is taken right out of Alinski's liberal handbook, which has been used to paint Republicans as racist and which goes something like: if you don't agree with government handouts and government handouts are given disproportionately to minorities then you must hate minorities. You've turned a deaf ear to people's suggestions about more case-specific decision making and continued to flog your simple-minded insistence that if it's not your way you're a paedophile
Not what I said at all, and you flat out said you agreed with pedophilia, such as in your childhood fantasy that you keep bringing up over and over, so how exactly do I have it wrong?
How in the world do you even sleep at night?
How do you, you sick bastard?
Very few of whom?
I'm just one guy, not some part of a collective.
And you quoted me specifically didn't you?
Yes, I quoted you, I also quoted someone else, and as I said, you as well have made criticisms, no suggestions.
I have no idea why you're "on these boards"...
From here you promote more of the same big government behaviors that Ron Paul fought against.
Oh, OK, so Ron Paul fought to get rid of age of consent laws? Must have missed that one. I do confess I don't agree with Ron on everything but I'd hardly say he and I oceans apart in our views.
Simple, no more federal money for law enforcement or courts.
OK, fine, I'm game, then what?
Any and all employees of any "Just-Us" department or organization are low life scum, from the kops and judges to every one drawing a check from government in order to even remotely support sitting in judgement of another. These people are who whore out their morals and ethics, the same people you have supported throughout the discussion taking place in two threads now.
I support having age of consent laws, I support enforcing those laws, I say that with no shame, you disagree, don't really care.
The solution is simple, no federal money.
Again, great, and then what?
I quoted you yesterday posting in support of the FBI.
No, you quoted me saying I don't care if the FBI raids pedophiles. I don't support the Latin Counts, but the other day they beat the shit out of some guy who tried to steal a March of Dimes donation box, so, in that instance, I say Bravo to them.
"Government" in the context I use it is a group of people who claim authority over me and mine who I cannot approach in their home on a Sunday afternoon.
The solution I keep offering is to cut all federal funding of all law enforcement, courts, kops and legislators.
Go ahead and cut the funding - something else will just pop up in it's place, you will never change that, you will always have someone who "claims authority over you" regarding certain matters. You can have more or less of that type of thing, but you will never have none, that is a just a fact of life.
