Peru has legalized medical marijuana.

Two dirty New York City thugs claim that a teenager under arrest and handcuffed consented to having sex with them.

Three white supremacists tried to shoot protesters after a right-wing rally.

The chemical Agent Orange, which the US dropped massively on Vietnam, continues causing birth defects there.

Zack Anderson's life has been turned into hell because he had sex with a 14-year-old who said she was 17.

Now Indiana is grasping at straws for excuses to put him on the sex offender's list for 25 years.

Excuses such as that a minor started working at his church and was there when he was.

The normal occupation of human adolescents is sex.

This case demonstrates what everyone should already have known: a human of age 14 can consent to sex, even seek it out.

Claims to the contrary are false, and when these claims appear in a law, it's a lying law.

The term “statutory rape” is a reflection of this lie. It means, “We know that wasn't rape, but we will pretend it was.”

Adolescents can be bullied / tricked / bribed into sex.

So can adults, as the recent accusations against Weinstein and others demonstrate.

It could be useful to do something to help people of any age resist such pressures, on the occasions when they would rather not have sex.

However, denying the fact that people also do have sex voluntarily is not the solution.
