Bi-partisanship only counts in sex scandals...

Homosexuality is rare (that is why it was called "queer" back in the day) in a normal society - when encouraged as is being done now by the liberals - the predators flourish and young boys are at risk... that's just the way it is.

Penn State families learned that the hard way too.
 
MEN are natural predators, NC... we have to reproduce, and often, and until we learn to be civilized, we are not good people. Most of us learn early; I have 4 sisters, and they kept me in line. I don't think gay men are that different from straight men, except they may have more opportunity.
 
In answer to this, your changed post, I will say only that predators are as numerous amongst straight men as gay men. In any case, predator or not, sex with a 17-year-old at a rest stop is unacceptable for an elected official, no matter if it is conscentual or not, gay or straight.

Kerry Gauthier, dem representitive for Duluth at the state house, is in trouble for having sex with a 17-year-old boy at a rest stop.

Time to pack your sh*t and git, Kerry; no party wants you representing them. Openly gay=acceptable, closeted with pedophile tendancies=unacceptable.

Seedy and unseemly...but neither pedophilia....nor illegal.

From your link...


Authorities have said Gauthier, 56, admitted having a liason with the boy. They say he won't be charged in the July incident because the boy was older than 16, the legal age of consent, and no money was exchanged.
 
The young man was too young for him. If it had been a 17-year-old woman, I would say the same thing. Either way, sexual behavior should be a private thing, not an act for public display.

The man has no discretion, no sense of restraint.

I'm not disputing any of those comments.

I'm disputing that a liaison with a young person of legal age qualifies as pedophilia. It's not close to pedophilia...and such a heinous charge shouldn't be leveled cavalierly.

It is all those other things. He is not my Rep...and I don't give a damn what his constituents do about it...
 
It's not legally pedophilia, and I didn't say it was. I said he has a tendancy towards it; my opinion.

No...he does not show tendencies of pedophilia. There is nothing in his actions that indicate he wants sex with pre pubescent children. Ephebophilia is desire for post pubescent teens...and again...the later years of that fascination are not illegal, as in this case.

Again...the boy...and I agree...too young...seedy...unseemly...and all that...is...and was...of legal age of consent.

LeRoy: Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says that there are NO homosexuals in Iran. Zero. Zilch. By your reasoning, that makes Iran the most 'normal' society on the planet.

Interesting.

Stupid, but interesting.

Maybe you should think about emigrating to Iran, eh?

I mean, if you really want to get away from the guys who prefer laddies to ladies, Iran sounds like the place to go! You could raise your sons there, without any fear that they're going to be 'recruited' by older homosexual men!
 
Dude should step down and hang his head in shame. Pedophiles, regardless of political affiliation, are despicable creatures and have no place in human society.

Iran is more his speed politically across the board. Cheap gas, strict religious laws...

I always thought it ...well...queer...that folks say homosexuality is rare and unusual and was practically unknown in ye olde times. But...then I see it mentioned in an ancient book penned by the word of a founding spirit...as if it must have been common enough to speak about it the same as eating bacon...

Go figure...

He isn't a pedophile. Sleazebag? Yes...pedophile, no.
 
NCM, there are as many, if not more, homosexual conservatives as there are liberal ones, hence the "log cabin" republicons, but regardless of political affiliation, pedophiles should not be tolerated. And homosexuality and pedophilia are not the same thing moron.
 
Maybe where he's from the legal age of consent is 17, where I'm from it's 18, so I stand by my comment. Besides anyone that has to use a highway rest stop for a "laison" isn't quite right in the head, IMO.

LeRoy: Technically, you may be correct, but I still think the man should step down. He is the Democratic equivalent of Larry Craig. He does not reflect well on the Democrats, and can only hurt the national party. Surely we can find a better candidate than this!

Again...he's sleazy. I have never disputed that.

Most states age of consent is 16. The law in your state doesn't define his actions. Don't know for sure...but if your Colts logo is an indication...Indiana shows as 16. http://www.webistry.net/jan/consent.html

Pedophilia is specific. It is attraction to prepubescents. One having a liaison with a 17 year old...of legal age of consent in the jurisdiction....can in no way...ever...in any world...be called a pedophile. It is a very serious charge...but it is not one this man is guilty of.
 
I stand corrected, based on your bringing your knowledge and sharing it. Thanks for the correction, but why is ephebophilia never mentioned, only pedophilia?

I haven't argued that point other than to defer to his constituents.

I'm starting to wonder if "we"...either side...can find better candidates.

LeRoy: Well, I wouldn't even leave it to his constituents. I think the national Democratic party, right up to and including President Obama, should 'invite' him to step down. The PARTY should make it clear that in no way do they approve of this type of behavior.
