I always like it when somebody plays the "so are you saying" and then comes up with some ridiculous thing and expects me to defend it as if I said it, rather than it being something they pulled out of their ass.
Here's the problem: in your rush to jerk yourself off over thinking you've "got me" you've missed a few key points: I do know what prepubescent means. It means before puberty. Puberty starts for the overwhelming majority of people before their teens. Pedophilia is an attraction to pre-pubescent children. Not post pubescent. Not pubescent. Pre-pubescent. Meaning before puberty has started. The commonly accepted cutoff to define somebody as a pedophile is when their interests skew to kids over 13. I don't have a math degree but I'm pretty confident 14 and 15 are both after 13.
You'd look pretty silly making # up and attacking me over the # you made up, then asking me if I know what terms mean when you yourself clearly don't. You'd look pretty silly calling me a liberal, as well. Unfortunately you've already done that, though, and here we are.
Don't confuse my having a better understanding of the subject matter than you do for defense of the act. Just because you fell for the click bait and I didn't is no reason to get upset at me over it. Sandusky molested kids as young as 8, which is (surprise!) prepubescent. Ergo, he's a pedophile.
You'd do well to read the entire thread before showing your ass, for what it's worth. I already said based off his previous convictions the guy is probably a pedophile, regardless of the age of his most recent victims.

I noticed you left out the age of the "child".
He was 17.
Washington's Age of consent is 16.
Correct. Technically, this means that Micah Rhodes is not legally a pedophile. As for the fake news that concludes the OP, we find an unnamed (of course) whistleblower leaking the upcoming "Pizzagate" busts because the DOJ wants people to know they are coming. On the other hand, President Trump had to rush the Muslim ban because he didn't want the bad guys to know it was coming. Which lie sounds more plausible?
The only difference is that one acts on the impulses and one does not. What would you say is the difference between wanting to axe murder people and actually doing it, oh by the way conspiracy to do a bad thing is still punishable,

Careful, knowing there's a difference will cause the less intellectually gifted here to assume you support pedophiles.
No i just think its important to understand and see it for what it is. Without understanding and knowledge no progress will be made. I really dont like the witch hunt kind of attitude people have towards pedophila it makes things worse..
Ahh a post by the wonderful Progressive Liberal Left who have yet to realize illegal means against the law....

I might be the only conservative Christian here that agrees with the liberals here. This is highly sensationalized. BLM is rotten, but that has nothing to do with these specific charges for the purposes of common sense.
23 year olds meet and date 16 year olds commonly. There was a time when a woman became emotionally mature more quickly than a man. So I think if this was heterosexual in nature, conservatives wouldn't be losing their collective minds. Not a fan of gay, I've been hurt by gays, but I know how to be unbiased.
I agree with a lot of what you said.
The issue I have in this case is that the BLM generally protest cops.
This guy is a lawbreaker.
He is the reason that we need cops.

So try the guy in court and be done with it. BLM will live on. I'm not sure why people who are right leaning,alt-right,,mid-right..wtf ever u want to call urselves... are posting like this is some kind of WIN for the right.
Nice thanks for the surprising information that Democrats under the guise of sexual liberty have been taking advantage of "barely legal" individuals.
