Teen boy to be charged as adult for having nude photos... of himself

[crazy canuck]

While it is a self-evident truth that what we say here means less than jack and shit, that is a cop out garbon and you know it 

Well I think one has to pick one's battles unless one wants to be outraged all the time.

And you choose to get outraged that someone raised this issue? 

[garbon]

Oh my god - so shocking that a lawyer, somewhere, might decide to move forwards with ridiculous charges!

Um, yes, yes, it is shocking.  Did you just adopt this ridiculously idiotic position to spite Martinus?

Maybe, unlike several of you, I live in the real world where it isn't unheard of that fucked up shit like this happens.

Ok but in the real world when something goes wrong reasonable people don't attack the person who identifies the act which was wrong.

I can easily prove that to be false. Just look at the reaction that's been had in response to the most recent wave of people caring about black lives/issues.

This isn't me outraged.

True.  Just wondering why you decided to pick this particular fight when your mantra is that one needs to be careful about what fight to pick.

I don't think it is much of a 'fight' to tell Marti that I don't give a shit what he is outraged about. YMMV.

You sure have a lot of shit on offer when you don't give a shit.

[Razgovory]

I think there this is something to be validly outraged about.  Making a legal distinction between adult and minor and then just ignoring that distinction whenever a prosecutor feels like it is unjust.

You seem to be making a point that it is a waste of time for others to "give a shit".

For someone who doesn't "give a shit" you are sure making a point that it is a waste of time for others shouldn't either.

Sorry, English plz?

Yeah, sorry.  Your point seems to be more that others should not give a shit and you are going all drama queen on people who do.

[garbon]

No, I don't think that was my point.

Yes Martinus - between our 50 states and countless counties and subdivisions there is plenty of foolishness to go around in the good 'ole USA.

Then again, the EU has Hungary.

Glass houses and all that.

Then again, the EU has Hungary.

Yesterday I read about a case which is pretty much the same in the uk. Kid getting charged with making child porn where if he had been a few years see he would have been seen as the victim under revenge porn laws
