35. What difference does it make if the officer pretended to be 10 or 17?

Mon Aug 18, 2025, 05:25 PM

Monday

The person arrested was going to prey on a CHILD. A 17 year old victim is STILL a CHILD. Would his behavior seem less predatory to you if he was going to prey on a teenager?

A 16 year old transgender girl was raped and murdered in my city last year, she was killed by a 30 year old man, is that crime less horrific because she was a teenager and not 'prepubescent'?

Don't bother to answer, I'm not in the mood for semantic predator apologist word games.
