There's no equal justice under the law, why should I give a damn?

if he's guilty he should be put to death.


For having sex with a 17 year old?

String me up I guess. I had sex with a 17 year old back when I was 20. I dare you to be the one who brings the rope.

Technically that would not be illegal in Florida. There is a Romeo & Juliet law that allows for people over the age of 18 to have a sexual relationship with a minor as long as the age difference is not more than four years, the relationship is consensual, and the older party does not have any prior sex offenses.

Ah so you're doing some whataboutism. I wonder where some certain users are that give out awards for that.

I don't know about you but I tend to think there's a major difference between visiting family in Florida and paying a 17 year old girl from Florida to have sex with you.

Man, you're trying really hard to deflect from the fact that Gaetz is going to be indicted for paying a 17 year old for sex and transporting her out of the country.

It's kind of extremely disgusting.


OK..he had sex with her OUTSIDE of the US? If so then unless the girl was a US citizen their local laws apply not US law.

Also allegedly had sex with her in the United States. Also allegedly transported her across state lines for sex. Also allegedly paid her for sex in the United States.

All felonies.

Equal justice, equal criticism, equality.



So if you're critical of Gaetz, the question remains; How long have you wanted to date him?

(It's the hair, isn't it.)

If he's guilty, he should pay. But an anonymous unknown protected testifier.... we've been down this road 1000 times.

I'm all for doxing people who were allegedly abused as children. It's the way to go.

He was hoping to be the next Epstein. It’s no fun to be rich and powerful if you can’t find underage girls to have sex with. Ffs, Putin has all the fun…

Poor Matty.

The girl is a US citizen. He allegedly paid her for sex and then brought her along with him on a trip to the Bahamas. That, along with also taking her across state lines, is what takes this from just a simple "Unlawful sexual activity with certain minors" case for the Florida courts to a Federal case of sex trafficking of a minor.

Interestingly enough, Gaetz is also under investigation for corruption because of that Bahamanian getaway.

To be fair, the ex-girlfriend is not the minor that Gaetz had sex with. The ex-girlfriend helped Gaetz intimidate the victim so she wouldn't tell anyone her story.

She was looking for immunity from being charged with witness tampering before she would testify.

The girl allegedly testified too. Gaetz's ex's name can be easily found as they had a public relationship.

Ah well whatever happens happens. These guys need to learn you dont mess with your own countrymen when you can find some young tail in other counries while out and about. At least then you can get rid of the evidence.

You can't pay an underage girl for sex and then take her across state/national borders.

Once again, the girl Gaetz allegedly had sex with was from Florida. This isn't some random girl he met in the Bahamas. This is a girl he brought with him with the intent to have sex.

Sounds like an escort service and he didn't check her ID first age first. I agree he is most likely is in big trouble if it is true, but all in all is it a big deal?

Nah, child rape isn't a big deal at all.
