EdwardA, this is amazing. You managed to anger the gay community, people in favor of procreation, people not in favor of creation, liberals, and independents all for different reasons in one four page thread. THAT, is skill.
How do you know he wasn't trolling playgrounds? How many children did he force sex on? He's a grown man having sex with minors and that makes him a pedophile. Pedophiles ruin lives. Too many of you are more worried about this jerk than the minors he had sex with.
You don't know a single thing that the rest of us do. All this is just your speculation. In your mind, you have already tried, convicted the guy. Nice lynch mob mentality going on there, Dockside.
Why don't you button you lip until justice runs it's course instead?
I'm not willing to support or condemn him at this early point, and we will all know how it turns out soon enough.
I feel bad for this guy and I think the gay lifestyle is unproductive. This is why I have a problem with the media making everyone a victim automatically. A 15 year trolling around gay chat lines knows what he is doing, to act like he's a victim of some nefarious abuser 20 years later is simply ludicrous.

Oh well I guess if I was running for some Internet message board popularity contest I'd be concerned.
A 16 year old is not a child. While not ideal and often exploitative, 16 years old was historically prime marrying age, with women that age sent off to marry and bear children for much older men. It's also the age of consent in many states.
A 16 year old is most certainly a minor if not a child.
And I don't care if third world countries marry their daughters off at the ripe old age of 10; here in the modern 21st century first world, we don't.
