Is a policeman returning to a little girl, the doll she dropped, sexual assault?

[xrp]

Pretty nasty.

[cinFLA]

How is returning a child to his/her parents meddling in family affairs?

You have taken the child into custody and forcibly taken him home to his parents without making any charges. That is simply meddling and NOT enforcing the law.

If there is a law against minors having dope, shouldn't there be someone charged? If there is no enforcement, then the law is meaningless.

Is a policeman returning to a little girl, the doll she dropped, sexual assault?

Colorado law defines sexual assault as requiring penetration. More information is required.

[xrp]

The child is being placed back into the custody of his/her legal guardian. I even had this happen to me once when I was out late in the city I grew up in.

Again, I said the 18 year old would be charged for providing dope to the minor. You then said the 17 year old provided it, he has a supplier somewhere, that person gets the slammer. Was it you who provided him the dope?

[cinFLA]

Pretty nasty.

I take that as immoral. But we really don't want to legislate morality do we?

[xrp]

So, if the policeman penetrated the doll, that is sexual assault?

[xrp]

Nah, do you?

[cinFLA]

So, if the policeman penetrated the doll, that is sexual assault? Only if he touched the girl.

[xrp]

So he penetrates the doll and hands the doll back to the girl and pats her on the shoulder saying "here's your doll back" and that is sexual assault?

[cinFLA]

So he penetrates the doll and hands the doll back to the girl and pats her on the shoulder saying "here's your doll back" and that is sexual assault?

Try that at the mall in Denver and you will find out.

[xrp]

I'm not a policeman.

[cinFLA]

Placing an arbitrary age such as 18 for majority status is placing your morals on others. I thought you were against legislating morality.

[xrp]

So, you've sexually molested dolls in Denver shopping malls, before.

[commonerX]

But if someone is sitting at home watching a movie not beating his family (not depriving them) of anything and not infringing on someone else right,

But what if he/she is depriving the kids of something?



Did you read the sentence?

[truenospinzone]

Yow. Thanks, I think. Man, these just get more and more depressing...

[truenospinzone]

He doesn't have to, since that's not what the quote says. It says, in fact, "socialist community", not "socialist society", and it means, quite simply, that under libertarian government, communities/cities/states that wished to set up their own socialist construct, and had enough willing members to do so, would be free to live in a "socialist community", and to outlaw or regulate whatever they wished. Under the current socialist government, libertarians don't have that same right.

Whether or not any of us agree with THAT sentiment is an entirely different question, and one you're free to ask.

Blessed are the peacemakers:

Convair B-36A Peacemaker
Colt Peacemaker 45

[xrp]

But people have died from guns! I want to prevent deaths. Surely we should ban all guns?

[Jim Cane]

Now just wait for your "entitlement".

I still don't understand your reference. I run my own business, started without any loans, SBA or otherwise. I neither solicit nor recieve handouts. I don't do drugs.

Are you merely engaging in ad hominem in an attempt to avoid justifying, in debate, pot's illegality based on it's so-called "health risk"?
