I’m not paternalistic I have no objection to him fucking an intern, and while I’m a bit surprised by all the people who think a teacher fucking a high schooler 16-18 is okay, I don’t disagree with your point altogether. The laws are very harsh.

Wow you mean the same organization that refers to Hispanics as “tacos” and the Latino vote as the “taco bowl vote” and conspired to question the faith of a party candidate because he’s Jewish and rigged the debates, is somehow not going to do anything about sexual assault?

If the 19 year old is a student of the teacher? Or did you just not read that part. It’s sexual exploitation and third degree sexual abuse. All states have it? And you’d face up to 20 years in prison. Most states also have a law that says you have to wait 30-90 days after a student’s graduation. I published a story in…

What about the video of her having a seizure while the reporters grimace? Or does that just not fit your narrative?

You’re some kind of stupid, aren’t you? Defend him at any cost no matter how wrong you are. It’s not rape, it’s sexual abuse or exploitation

“It wasn’t rape”

Then why do no states offer an exception for the age of consent? Why do most states say a teacher must wait 30-90 days after a students graduation? Hint: fall sports and waning infuence. It has everything to do with power and little to do with the age of consent or teachers would be banging juniors in Iowa (where the…

My point was never the legality of his actions you need to read a little better. And none of your strawmen remotely relate to my examples, which were also in response to the commenter’s contention that a teacher banging an 18 year old was legal.

A high school teacher spends much more time and has much more power over a student. Thats why its illegal. I’d think the President of the United States would have amply more power over an intern. College aged kids are hardly more mature than high school kids, and developmental psychology and modern science tells us…

I don’t disagree that the situation is different, but my intention is to not move the goal posts, but to look at the impetus in both situations: a person in a position of power entering into a relationship with the person they have power over. The theory behind the laws is that the person in the position of…

I actually know from experience that if the 19 year old were a student or within 30 days a student, it would be 3rd degree sexual abuse and sexual exploitation. The Texas Legislature originally DID cap the law at age 17, but after some outcry, amended the law so there is no age exception/reference. ANY student…

“A teacher having sex with a 19yr old is just morally reprehensible”

I can’t tell if you’re actually ignorant or trolling or defending the idea that a teacher having sex with a student is not morally reprehensible and illegal, but it most certainly is. What state do you live in, I’ll look it up for you.

What state are you from, I’ll even look it up for ya

If they were a teacher they would? If the person was a student. And in most states, including Iowa, they’d have to wait 90 days after graduating to engage in any romantic or sexual behavior

You’re joking, right?

In most states, third degree sexual abuse. Google it. I’m not your personal search engine.

It was a Gawker story last year? And he was named in a lawsuit this year about visiting sex slave island. And before any Hillary shill gets their panties in a knot, his name is on the flight logs with known underage er...”masseuses”

“At this point, what does it matter?”
