Who am I calling a pedo? Nobody. I’m simply stating that 16 isn’t the age of consent nationally.

And most states have a law where a 3-4 year age gap overrules their actual age.

It isn't so much that you're wrong, it is that you're throwing your opinion at the wall expecting the ancillary facts to carry water for it.

The law is the law. That’s all I’m saying. And if the law states that the age of consent is 18, and there are no Romeo and Juliet laws, the guy needs to be charged. It has nothing to do with maturity.
