I know the law is the law, but in this case I think they went too far to charge her. Ther person she was talking to was months away from turning 18.

As I've stated before, I think it's a waste of taxpayer time and money. Nothing is going to be served by it. The local PD has better things they should be doing.

Face it there is a group of people who love bringing the hammer down on others. They burned witches in the middle ages, the turned hoses and dogs on civil rights protesters in the 1960s, they came up with bogus childcare molestation cases in the and roughed up abortion protesters in the 1990s [and even arrested the operaton rescue people for having pictures on their truck.] They will use the power of the state on whomever is the disfavored group.

These are only some of the examples in history. I completely ignored the “war” on drugs etc.

One cause of the day is anyone in any minor way running afoul of sexual laws. At one point in history prosecutors behaved as if the understood the potential damage done by an adult male having sex with an underaged girl who might get pregnant was different than the potentail damage done by adult female having sex with an underaged boy who can not get pregnant. This male does. Probably man presecutor do. But alas there are seemingly many Mike Nifongs out there.

Ironically one of the things communism/socialism has done is turned the Dims from protectors against the witch burners to the biggest zealots at bringing the hammer down on those who are out of fashion. So Dim interest groups, homosexuals, protesters are off limits to the thugs so the thugs become Dims and go after whatever group is out of favor including conservatives in general.
