Re: Re: Deserved Sentence?

I don't understand why anyone would think that a 45 year old man having consensual sex with a 17 year old is evil?

Isn't that showing a lack of tolerance?

Well, I think it's unfortunate that there has to be any such law on the books but it's obviously there for a reason. There has to be some middle ground. A 19 year old sleeping with a 17 year old shouldn't be persecuted, but a 45 year old who does should be. I think the law is too black and white the way it is written and needs to amended, but I also think the law serves a purpose.
