Yes, your right. Your the one totally clued in. Your right. The US government shouldn't EVER say anything when US citizens go around fucking 14 year old girls!
You said it all when you said you wanted the government butt out when it comes to guys fucking underage chicas.
You know way to much about this case to be just another poster, with your whole 1 month membership and 8 posts. Either you're him, or you're a travel buddy that enjoy's younger than you should, and you're use to paying off the local PD, and not liking it when the US government sticks their nose in!
Just my opinion of course.
Jeez, talk about not living up to your name. Gallant? Not so much.
