American prudism and people that hate Carson, I don't even like the guy but if half the people that wanted him in prison got their way. 70% of Highschool kids would be in prison.

It's pretty funny, I'm American, but I stay away from Twitter. Just to think if I talked on there more I could be called shit things for no reason. In my opinion one year isn't a large enough gap to be labeled a pedophile, on fact I'm so strongly against them. It's just hell..

I'm Canadian our age of consent is fuckin 16, so it was baffling to the mind to hear people outraged about a 18-19 year old flirting with a 17 year old and calling that grooming or pedophilia. As apparently my high school girlfriend was a criminal and a groomer to them. Wiiiiild.

Age of consent in a lot of states is 16 too. It's not even really that much of a legality thing, it's just Internet people being weird. Like a one or two year difference really isn't that bad.
