    You need proof that we don't get to determine who is guilty without a criminal charge, hearing, testimony, and a judicial process?
    If you need proof of that, I have no interest in responding with the Constitution and state laws.

    Fake post. Not worth my time responding to idiotic childish rants

    Its your claim, you prove it.

    I have posted countless times that their attempts to claim non-heterosexual people are pedophiles is false. Almost all pedophiles are heterosexual and known to their victims. Non-heterosexual people aren't just grabbing kids off the streets and seducing them in classrooms as they are trying to claim.

    Secondly, teaching children about sex, in general, can only have them prepared when the hormones come-a knockin'. Knowledge has never killed anyone but stupidity and ignorance have. It makes no sense to be in consenting adults' bedrooms and completely ignore non-consensual sex. We all read it in the thread about the 10 year old. They went from calling it a Leftist's lie to highlighting the predator is an illegal immigrant. Never any concern for the little girl that had her situation thrusts into the public eye.

    So, they will scour the net to find some negative articles about minorities and non-heterosexual people to try to drown this out but this tells us all loud and clear exactly what they think of all "those precious little lives".

    So what does that have to do with this thread and 20 Republicans voting against the sex trafficking bill?

    Thanks, you provided exactly what was expected.
    You - make wild false claims.
    Others - ask you to prove your wild false claims.
    You - I won't waste my time proving claims

    Those posts where there's wild false claims and refusal to offer proof are just troll posts.

    Enjoy your day. Responses are no longer needed.

    My side? I am one person. I am not a side.
    The deal? No deal. You made a claim and now can't explain or defend it.
    Good day, It seems you just want to troll

    If You need proof that we don't get to determine who is guilty without a criminal charge, hearing, testimony, and a judicial process, then you are on a site that is way WAY over your head.
    And I have no interest in educating you on historically known undisputed laws.

    Looks like Gaetz is worries that his supply will dry up. Perhaps he is looking to change profession once he is thrown out of Congress. With daddy's money behind him he could take Geoffrey Epstein's place.

    Gaetz was implicated in the investigation when his close friend, former Seminole County, Florida, Tax Assessor Joel Greenberg, was arrested and later convicted of numerous crimes including sex trafficking involving a minor.

    Greenberg’s sentencing has reportedly been delayed as he cooperates with the investigation into Gaetz and the larger array of crimes, according to a July 8 article from Politico.

    There's been one confused on this issue. Here's some clarification.

    Political prisoners. We've seen this many times in third world countries. What else was in the sex-trafficking bill, money for green energy programs?

    This smarmy looking guy has one of the most Punchable faces in History, I believe in innocent until proven guilty but if they find out he's done the things he's accused of, castrate this bitch and give him life in Prison without parole.

    Ask the other 401 congresscritters, including all the other republicans in congress.

    This has been in place since GWB in 2000.

    If you think there was money for green energy, prove it. Don't just throw out baseless accusations.

    It wasn't a statement it was a question. You can usually tell that by the ? at the end of a sentence.

    Asked about his vote, Gaetz told The Hill the measure would serve as “a backdoor loophole for illegal immigration and amnesty.”


    “The government’s failure to accurately and specifically define human trafficking allows this legislation to act as a backdoor loophole for illegal immigration and amnesty,” he said. “The bill also costs over half a billion dollars to implement and gives more taxpayer money to overfunded, inefficient grant programs.”

    [SNIP]

    Brian Babin (TX)

    Andy Biggs (AZ)

    Lauren Boebert (CO)

    Mo Brooks (AL)

    Ken Buck (CO)

    Andrew S. Clyde (GA)

    Matt Gaetz (FL)

    Louie Gohmert (TX)

    Paul A. Gosar (AZ)

    Marjorie Taylor Greene (GA)

    Andy Harris (MD)

    Jody B. Hice (GA)

    Thomas Massie (KY)

    Tom McClintock (CA)

    Mary E. Miller (IL)

    Troy E. Nehls (TX)

    Ralph Norman (SC)

    Scott Perry (PA)

    Chip Roy (TX)

    Van Taylor (TX)

    Roy was the only "no" voter to speak at the debate. He called the issue "critically important" but suggested he hadn't reviewed the bill and that "other factors at play, involving the floor and spending and other stuff" affected his decision.

    He said he did not want his vote to be taken as "an indication of not supporting the purpose of the bill."

    [End]

    Kind of amazing, that the "I didn't have time to do my job's homework," excuse, apparently, is something that flies, in Texas. What also stands out, is that 5 of the 20 members, are from the Texas delegation, to the House. That three are from Georgia, also seems worth noting. I'd be curious to compare the 20 explanations.

    The article cites Gaetz's reason for his "no" vote, as being that he sees this as "mission creep," for the federal Dept. of Transportation, and that this is something that should be handled on the state level. Of course, combatting any criminal activity that crosses state lines, is just the type of thing that experience has shown to be greatly aided by the addition of federal authorities.

    Well you misread Cd8ed's comment, because that he had been referring to other posters, was quite clear, to anyone following the conversation:


    cd8ed said: ↑
    Too bad this isn’t people reading to children or maybe the right would care. So far… crickets.

    Seems to be a trend, *they did the same with actual rapes going on in their churches that they fund.

    Imagine the people literally donating to people and institutions that condone molestation and sex trafficking screaming that books are indoctrinating children.



    dairyair said: ↑
    I think the pedophile crowd not chiming in speaks loudly about how they and the trump supporters and QAnon are the ones who are the pedophile group.
    That's why you see the big 20 trump lovers voting to kill the pedophile bill.
    And the trump supporters are silent** because now they are the ones outed and Faux tv hasn't given them their marching orders yet.


    cd8ed said: ↑
    **They have lost all credibility and what’s worse is they know it — they just don’t care. Everything is a political weapon they manipulate to their talking points and when they don’t have the talking points yet they just ignore it.

    It’s disgusting that this has taken over a major political party

    So it's better to send a little girl back to a cartel-run bordello rather than risk her becoming an illegal immigrant. Saves us money too.

    If you believe that is the case, do you likewise feel the same when it is a poster on the RIGHT, claiming that it is the Democrats/Progressives/Left, whose ranks are filled with groomers and perverts: that is, that the poster is being divisive, and intellectually stupid?

    This is from a SNIP, which comprises a current OP, from one Right- Winger. Divisive, in your book?

    Divisive much? Hopefully you understand how intellectually stupid it is to say, "trump supporters and QAnon are the ones who are the pedophile group."

    Since you haven't had the chance, yet, to respond to my example, on the Right, of someone stereotyping the Left, as being perverse-- to see that you feel the same way, regardless of its direction-- I might as well add another, current example:

    To remind you, I am wondering if you find any of this talk, also, as "divisive," and, "intellectually stupid?"

    Or do you agree with them?


    How's that digging coming?
