In your scenario the law has to do with a physical act which may or may not produce a victim, depending on the age of the would-be victim. In the story, the law has to do with a THOUGHT, which obviously does NOT have a victim at all. Is the guy a sick puppy? Yep, but that's not a crime either. What's really sick, though, is that if they caught this guy actually raping/molesting the girl he'd just get a couple of years in jail. I'd save us all a lot of money and simply spend 50 cents on a .45 and be done with it.
My understanding was that there never was a girl. It was all a sting, and I doubt if they use real girls in their sting operations. You just condemned a man to death for flirting with a 45 year old FBI operative. When my girls were 14, they found out about IRC and suchlike. Initially, I used to lurk in the same channel or chatroom they were in, so I could check up on them. But they didn't do anything much, and now I don't bother checking on them any more. Well, they'd probably be quite annoyed with me if I did, they're mid-twenties now. Shouldn't someone do something about all the rape, underage sex and incest in the Bible? _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
