Lastly, how does if feel to get a dose of your own medicine. I remember when Bush was in office, a large % of liberals were "looking for anything they could find to jump on the other team".
Or didn't you notice back then, because it was people from your team doing it?
Can you actually give an example of the Main Stream Media being biased in the way they cover a story though ?

To me many of the conservatives seem to have a problem with the media being inclusive. That is a societal bias, not a political one. Same with them being neutral

Here's a huge list of convicted Republican Child Sex offenders. Funny how they didn't make it on the Conservative controlled media.
Republican List

Democrats don't go around preaching to other about Family Values and attacking people like they're above everyone.

Take a good look at the website I posted above.

There was also a case where a Republican Anti-Gay activist who fought to prevent a gay man from adopting kids. Instead, he adopted the girl himself and ended up MOLESTING her.

Funny how he only adopted the 8 year old Girl. This anti-gay activist allowed the Gay man to adopt the 3 boys.

Based on his thread title. He probably now wants to move to CA.

Unfortunately, he failed to read what the bill actually is about. But yeah. go ahead and try to have sex with a minor in CA. See what happens.

BTW, in CA, the age of consent is 18. I bet the OP lives in Hickville where the age of consent is 14.

Right Dems don't preach family values..

No, I live in Los Angeles, CA . Never heard it called Hickville before .
Ironic you are accusing me of failing to read when it says I live in L.A on all my posts.


Wrong ....AGAIN!

But they will be less likely to encounter law enforcement at all, and therefore more likely to continue doing what they're doing.

Can you imagine that being an improvement?
No, not really.

No that's new laws being introduced to go that way, which everyone here is twisting.

If prostitution is legal, should be men only who turn the tricks. That's my view point. Some think it's like porn they see, but Porn is on a set of known approved people, and controlled environment. Having to make your money from turning tricks. Is not pretty woman...
