Just once could one of these guys get beaten to death with a big fat stick? The fact that we let these people walk around breathing air after everything they’ve done is enough for me to throw my phone in a lake and check out from society and never talk to anyone ever again
China would probably execute serial r*pists like Dersh and Epstein but in the USA they get a book deal and a speaking tour.
too high for what
Too high for what Alan?!?
He should epstein himself
How much to hire the hitman that did Epstein in, surely we can crowdfund it?
It’s not about the money for Hillary, I don’t think you can get her.
Hilary sneaking in and taking out cameras in a disguise hitman style is an incredibly funny image
The fact he can say this and continue to walk around his social circles without being beaten should be sending a pretty big message to libs. This dudes just saying it out loud, they’re all okay with it.
He was complaining a few years back that nobody in the Hamptons would even talk to him any more, I think he’s burned all the wealthy civility liberal good will already. He probably only knows guys now who have perfect recall of the age of consent in every state.
And that club is full of the most revered people. All this talk about elites etc but these lots laugh because they know mfs aint gonna do a damn thing about it
Nonce detector readings off the charts, holy shit.
It’s always the decrepit looking freaks that argue for lowering the age of consent.
age of consent laws have become controversial
i think we just know different people because that’s not one im seeing many people talk about
The only thing that needs to be lowered in this scenario is Dersh and his ilk…into a pit…at very high velocities. Or just fast enough for them to be horribly injured while they starve to death. Either way. On this topic I am open to debate
It’s weird that people who sit there and humiliate themselves constantly like this are beating us
I don’t think they have shame is all. You have to be shameless to publicly announce you want to fuck children, I mean, right?
Honestly should be higher.
Agreed, always felt it should be at least 21.
Completely agree as someone who had sex earlier than most
The age of consent should be the age when most people are, like, independently living in their own place. It keeps going up.
We should increase it to 21 to make these people even more mad lmfao
Hot take: 18 is too high an age of consent, it should not be a concern for the criminal justice system if teenagers have sex with eachother. You probably should have some kind of sliding scale kind of thing though so a 50 year old can’t have sex with a 15 year old.
That’s how the law almost always is: close-in-age exemptions of like 2-4 years, down to a certain point.
Romeo and Juliet laws already exist to address that scenario
Ugh I remember romeo and juliet laws explained in that transformers movie in what was clearly an inappropriate thing and I’m here like why is it in this movie
They could have just made her 18:joel-haver-joker:
I agree, but -
The thing about Age of Consent laws is that a case will never stand up in court unless the victim testifies. Even if a 50-y/o man is sleeping with a 14 y/o girl, it’s practically impossible to prove criminality unless the victim testifies in court against him (and even then, there’s a good chance that the judge will throw out the case anyways).
I think men that are paranoid about the legality of age gaps in relationships are either (1). Worried because they are taking advantage of young girls and think they would testify in court against then given the chance, or (2). Are more worried about what their social circles would think of them than a court of law.
I HATE to be this person but there is a good faith reason to care about this stuff.
In some states without these laws, statutory r*** can be weaponized by parents against partners they don’t like. So if an 18 or 19 year old person is with a 17 year old and the parents don’t like him they can definitely use these laws. It’s an edge case but I wouldn’t put it past bigots to try and use this shit. Racists or homophobes should not be trusted with this kind of leverage. And then you put someone on the registry as an offender for… What is basically normal age gaps.
Most, of not all, states that enforce age of consent laws also have provisions for people who are close in age, “Romeo and Juliet” laws.
Like, in theory I agree, state law enforcement should not be concerned about a 17 year old and a 19 year old in a consensual relationship. But I also have to question if any 19 year olds are actually facing charges because of a 17 year old partner. Is it actually happening or is it just useful rhetoric that legitimate pedophiles like Alan Dershowitz employ so often it SOUNDS like a real thing?
I mean, according to this there’s still 5 states without them.

Not gonna do deep age of consent research btw, but seems semi-reliable.
Btw, once Romeo and Juliet laws are universal then there’s no good faith argument against age of consent being 18. However I don’t know about you but I wouldn’t want some reactionary parents being able to leverage the lack of these laws against an LGBTQ partner they didn’t approve of, for instance.
Btw Dershowitz is totally bad faith, but there is a good faith version of the issue that actually probably should be a priority in states without these laws. Again, my concern really is its weaponization by reactionaries more than anything. Why leave that shit lying around, as it were.
Could codify “half your age plus 8” I guess?
14 year olds and younger: 👁️👄👁️
14 year olds, shocked to find they’re still below the age of consent
I would like to put this man in a little box and throw that box into the ocean. The world would objectively be a better place.
Chomo fomo?
