George Takei, who starred as Sulu on Star Trek and is an outspoken anti-Trump celebrity on twitter and Facebook, went on Howard stern and bragged about pedophilia, and said that it's not molestation if the 13 year old boy finds the man attractive at 2:20 at this video.

Milo got blasted for making similar comments, except this was more in depth even.

If I don't see media outrage on this, it just proves a point about how the media' equal treatment of both men (milo and takei) twisted issues is complete garbage. Both are equally as sick, in my opinion. But if a leftist defends this behavior, but shuns milo, it's not about "freedom of speech ", but more about preference of party.

Hmmm, they're starting to take pedophilia seriously and not calling it " Fake News" any more. I wonder if that means that something big is going to be revealed some time soon.
If they start doing reports on cannibalism, I think Podesta might want to worry.

I don't care about George Takei, but I will say this:

The age of consent in Austria and Germany is 14 as long as the adult does not force the youngster into sex. That sounds reasonable and civilized to me. I'm not sure why so many people in the US panic over teenagers having sex with adults. As long as no one is being forced against his or her will, it shouldn't be a crime.

That is not at all what Takei says. Takei states he was 13 at the time and says he does not feel he was molested! Talk about twisting words!

Hearing the story I whole heartedly believe Takei was molested. Takei doesn't feel that is what happened whatsoever. It's quite sad really.

How is the OP twisting words when Takei did state that he didn't feel it was molestation since he thought the guy was attractive?

Q&A from the video...

The question - "Were you molested in a sense, because you were 13?"'

Takei - "No, no, 'cause I was kind of, ah, I thought he was pretty attractive"

Agree, I would say unless they are in an authoritative position over them; teacher, priest, etc. Even then the punishment should be in civil courts.

Just kinda funny that even CNN's Jake Tapper responded about this on Twitter and I wake up the next morning and...nothing.

Yet, George is gonna keep talking about Trump in a negative manner. Similar crimes, and no outrage whatsoever.

The OP stated in bold "It's not molestation if the 13 year old boy find the man attractive"

Takei never thought he was molested, he was the victim. Entirely different than if he was the older teenager victimizing a 13 year old.

I never liked George Takei and they can beam him up
