They're saying this user posts nothing but rage bait. What does this have to do with American conservative politics?
As a conservative, I believe in:
This story is an outrage according to those values
Oh so you don’t notice that those values contradict each other?
If this story involving a 12 year old in Spain upsets you, I hope you’re also as upset at how many states in the US have an age of consent for sex as low as 13, no “culture” argument even needed:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_the_United_States
What if in some one else's culture they think its fine to murder people who sleep with 12 year olds?
I think that's called western culture which I've been told is very bad.
If that were true that’s fucking horrible, but I don’t see what your point is?
All I said was the previous comment’s points contradict each other, and that the US has current laws that are also horrible.
Romeo and Juliet laws. A 20 year old cant have sex with a 13 yo and get away with it.
You’re correct, the consent age of 13 is with the provision of someone else of the same or older age consenting.
Even still, the full age of consent in some states can range from 14-16. Not much better.
