‘Absolutely Bonkers’: Evil California Democrats Refuse To Make Buying Kids For Sex A Felony
Lawmakers in California, stunningly, have refused to make buying kids for sex a felony.
There’s a new report in the Federalist that explains the antics of Democrats who insisted on having their way with a new law, and what it means.
The report, written as a commentary, explained, “Should it be a felony to purchase an underage minor for illegal sex? For most of us, the answer is a very easy yes. This is not a hard one.”
But Democrats in the state, “feel differently.”
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
“The state assembly there this past week considered a bill — AB-379 — that would have amended state law to make it a felony to solicit paid sex from ‘any person under 18 years of age.’ In other words, if you seek out and pay a minor for sex — if you engage in child sex trafficking — you would be guilty of a felony.”
Democrats there, the report said, “mounted a major opposition to the bill. By the time they were done with it, the bill’s protections for 16-year-old sex crime victims had been stripped from the measure.”
They added their claim that it was “the intent of the Legislature to adopt the strongest laws to protect 16- and 17-year old victims,” but then they refused to do just that, the report said.
The opposition, the report said, stemmed from concern “that the measure could disproportionately affect … LGBT Californians.”
“The ACLU of Southern California claimed in part that similar measures ‘have been used disproportionately against … LGBTQ+ individuals,’” the report said, while “Other opponents of the bill claimed that the measure could be used by parents who are upset that their children are in ‘LGBTQ relationships.’”
Those beliefs were justified by state Sen. Scott Wiener, who long has promoted the LGBT ideologies, the report said, when he commented, “sending an 18 year old high school senior to state prison for offering his 17 year old classmate $20 to fool around isn’t smart criminal justice policy.”
Social media backlash was harsh.
“This pervert wants to allow children to be prostituted.”
And, “You’re an embarrassment to the party…”
And, “This is absolutely bonkers.”
The report explained, “At best, Democrats and other opponents of this bill are attempting to defend underage prostitution as a normal feature of young relationships (it’s not). At worst, they are revealing, inadvertently, that LGBT individuals are apparently regular participants in the sex trafficking of minors.”
The bill itself concerned itself only with “paying for sex with minors.”
And the report warned, “Most functioning adults consider it a very bad thing when underage children are paid for sex, no matter the circumstances. Opponents of this bill are acting as if they are defending meaningful, intimate relationships, rather than innately harmful, exploitative, and dangerous ones.”
The report said, “The party has sent an unmistakable message to sexual predators around the country: If you come to California to buy a minor, the state government is prepared to go easy on you.”
