Well, I mean, okay. But the guy in question is 23. And his (I can't even put enough quotes around the word victim so I won't even try) "victim" was 17. Not a big deal, IMO.
Six years difference is not all that much, and it would have been legal just across the state border. The issue here is not pedophilia, it is an attempt to discredit a movement. Where was the thread when Mr. Rhodes was first charged back in 2015? Where was the shock and anger here on ATS? Is the "anti-pedophilia" lobby here concerned with the welfare of children and young adults, or are they using it as a political pretext?

I could not figure which forum to place this in however it does need a place for all to see IMO. Further more I have been seeing articles where the pedophiles days are numbered as the new leadership in Washington will actively pursue those who can be proved guilty.
One of the leaders of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement is facing pedophilia charges after police claim that Micah Rhodes had sex with an underage boy.
Rhodes was arrested last month after he was accused of being in a sexual relationship with an underage boy.
The affidavit does not specify what led police to the victim and Rhodes now. It does say that in 2015, the Oregon Youth Authority informed Portland police that Rhodes reportedly confessed that year to having sex with the victim. At the time, Rhodes was on parole for first-degree sex abuse and first-degree sodomy crimes.
This guy besides being on parole, is the self proclaimed head of the BLM of Portland which they call themselves the Portland resistance... Yep the organization which did all the mayhem in Portland with their not so peaceful protest..

As far as going after the pedo rings: www.whitehouse.gov...
Presidential Executive Order on Enforcing Federal Law with Respect to Transnational Criminal Organizations and Preventing International Trafficking
Sec. 2. Policy. It shall be the policy of the executive branch to:
(a) strengthen enforcement of Federal law in order to thwart transnational criminal organizations and subsidiary organizations, including criminal gangs, cartels, racketeering organizations, and other groups engaged in illicit activities that present a threat to public safety and national security and that are related to, for example:
This particular E.O. gives wide ranging authority and renews (with motivational time limits and reports) on getting various agencies to work together and not turn a blind eye to nefarious activities within our borders.
The next link I find hard to believe but if true I would expect some high profile arrest within the next 120 days..www.socialmediamorning.com...
An FBI whistleblower estimates “close to 30% of the political spectrum” in Washington D.C. is connected to the elite pedophile ring that has been infiltrated by law enforcement, with “high level arrests of close to three dozen pedophile politicians” expected next week.
The insider at the Federal Bureau of Investigation says that the FBI finished submitting paperwork to the Department of Justice in preparation for the “Pizzagate” arrests which will begin as soon as Jeff Sessions is confirmed as Attorney General.
Mr. Sessions has been briefed on the investigation and all of the evidence three weeks ago.
“We expect some movement next week. Another 42 people also expected to be arrested in the drag net. 72 in all.”
I would be willing to bet the Sessions Trump team will uphold the laws on the books and not turn a blind eye to this crap.. Either way time will tell what will go down and if justice is truly blind and equal for all.. Not holding my breath... but interesting none the less with the recent arrest reported.
A lot of child abusers do hide but a lot of them are professional people and yes even activist.

Weird how we don't seem to get threads about pedophile female teachers on here when they bang their 17 year old male students.
I feel like 17 is pretty solidly post-puberty for the overwhelming majority of people on the planet, as well, so how does that qualify as pedophilia?
Maybe it's different because it's gay sex this time.
Uh I was talking about BLM's bizarre behavior. And that BLM members are Batshirt crazy. Even the "non-violent" ones because of what they preach in the first place.
And your definition of Bizarre behavior from Trump is what? Just because you get triggered doesn't mean the triggering incident is bizarre. Facts are bizarre in that case then.

Seems people are just mad that a "activist" may have got caught, and while I will not paint BLM with a broad brush because of the alleged actions of one of its members, there are those who are sick of the hypocrisy and will take pleasure in saying so.
