Sexual Predator Honored With U.S. Postage Stamp

[oyarde]

I thought everybody was on a stamp these days.

The last stamp article I read was millions in losses on Simpsons stamps that were to be destroyed because they did not sell before the price was hiked...... for real.

I bet you have a bunch of these:

I can remember very large tracts of forest that scumbags used to disappear into, never to be heard from again.

I miss the days when Nikkivagina would come into these threads and tell us what disgusting slimeballs male libertarians are. :^(

I bet you have a bunch of these:

Hell , I have never even seen one of those . Art work ( I hate to be a critic as I have no talent ) , not really impressive, my annual state duck stamp and upland bird stamp ( back in the day when I bothered to buy them ) were much , much better. I cannot tell by the depiction what she represents , except maybe Wolf Clan, which could be Cherokee , or about a hundred other things , lol

I bet you have a bunch of these:

If you are sitting on a couple sheets of those , I will take one , lol

By the way , that Milk dipshit is a very good rep for the modern San Fran Dem party, he probably had more morals than they though ....

Well, that's a really good argument.

Because I can't believe you're serious. You act as though Christian, westernized definitions of the family unit are the only ones that ever existed among peaceful people. What about all the cultures in the world that have successfully practiced non-monogamy for thousands of years? With much lower rates of divorce & mental breakdown than are caused by our version of "responsible, moral" paradigms? To say that churchy white patriarchal attitudes above love & sex are the only ideas ever widely accepted by civilized people is patently absurd.

A 33 year old man with someone younger than 18 is considered rape.

This is a jurisdictionally variable integer.

Well, that's a really civilized point of view.

Well, many of these cultures produced buck all in terms of progressing humanity past the point of living in huts and caves. Something to think about.

Yes it is, so?

 

[Tod]

By who?

I expect a whole lot of fathers would have given Milk a bullet if it were their son he had raped. That's why people like him target kids that lack a loving, supportive family.

That's a good point. I'm not sure if any of them were as successful at killing & enslaving people as white people have been. Many primitive, violent cultures have been monogamous ones, too, or at least shared our paradigm of woman-as-property of thou who bops her.

Yeah, because a weird/dangerous/rogue Dad is always less vicious than a jovial/optimistic one.

By putting it the way you do, you give sanction to the government/media establishment's misuse & abuse of the word "rape." Calling these volitional, peaceful sex acts "rape" is a disrespect to actual violent rape victims.

I'm no fan of honoring the wicked, whether they be murderers or perverts.

Nobody'd be honoring them, that's for sure. For me, the only difference would be that we'd be honoring a semi-pedophile who isn't a homosexual rather than one who is. One form of perversion instead of two. So what?​

Martin Luther King Jr., Jerry Lee Lewis, Elijah Muhammed, Elvis Presley, and probably Joseph Smith and Brigham (Bring'em) Young are just a few examples of culturally and historically beloved figures who were into underage girls. I don't defend what they did, but to say that same-sex pedophiles get a free pass in the history books while opposite-sex pedophiles don't is, I believe, not entirely accurate.

 

[pcosmar]

Well of course this is the kind of person this country should be honoring.

Don't buy the stamps.

it really is that simple.

 

[Origanalist]

Well ya, there's that. And I won't. I don't know why I'm even surprised at a sexual predator being put on a stamp.

MLK Jr. was into underage girls? That I didn't know.

The thing with this particular dude, though, is that he's being honored BECAUSE of his sexuality. That isn't the case for the others you mentioned.

Pfft... big whoop. War criminals get bloody great marble monuments in the fashion of legendary gods built to them in Washington D.C.

Stamps are amateur hour.

100% agree. Abe Lincoln has been on our currency for a hundred years now, people. A warmongering tyrant who jailed thousands, killed millions, and took a big ol' dump on that Constitution thing we all like to talk about so much. I think that's worse than some gay "statutory" rapist who may or may not have actually been a rapist since it was all apparently consensual making it to a postage stamp. Does anyone even send letters anymore? We should bring that back. Letters rule.
