[QUOTE]Originally posted by Idontlikeusernames: [QB] [QUOTE] He makes some good points- about how "children are vulnerable to internet predators" and how the "predators are winning" the fight with law enforcment. [/QUOTE]The operative word here being "children". People in their late teens are not children, at least not biologically like MMoM already stated. Behaviorally, now that's a whole other can of worms and tends to vary greatly with the individual in question (and nature, nurture and culture all seem to play a role in this), though rep. Foley seems to have violated some US laws regarding the age of consent (and thus set a bad precedent since he's a lawmaker), like individual psychological maturity laws on age of consent can and do tend vary a great deal between cultures and countries. So other than rep. Foley setting a bad precedent as a lawmaker and not conducting himself according to the high standards that are supposed to go with the office (but then again I'm hard pressed to name any current politician who does) all he actually did, like Shik's already stated was talk a little dirty to these kids and I'm sure what rep. Foley said to them wasn't even half as dirty as some of the words being exchanged daily amongst teenagers themselves in high school and college corridors all over the word. [/QB][/QUOTE]
