He got this from me...I love that movie, and he loves me. Transitive internetting.

That alert e-mail is, by far, one of the creepiest things I've seen coming out of the propaganda machine. It reminds me of something you'd see in a Rand novel, right before the intrepid blogger disappears into the ether, never to be seen again. But, I mean, they "voted," so it's okay, right?

Guilty until proven innocent, then?

This is pointless.

You've already made up your minds, so I'm not going to waste my time with this any further. You'd think someone who studies the law for a living might be given the benefit of the doubt on this one.

And all this from my assertion that there's no evidence this guy is luring children to some sort of secret sex lair.

Un-hinged.

So, since *you* don't know of any, it must be a myth.

Check your own logic before you attack mine.

Okay, so one messy case means I'm a friend of the perverts?

Again, for the love of God, we're on the same side here.

/Looks up from Contract Theory notes...

Dixon? (That's ONE of the GA cases...I do know that GA changed their age of consent laws after a case that followed essentially the same fact pattern I described, but I'm not sure if it was Dixon.) I know in the GA case, there were *allegations* of misconduct, but the whole thing was suspect.

Yes, I'm going to waste hours of my life combing through a semester's worth of criminal law for this. There was a Georgia case, and two unpublished ones from some jurisdiction or another. If I find the time to dig through my pile of junk, I'll let you know. The rape chapter is a long one.

Let's go back to my original comment for a second. The basic gist of it was that there could be some problems with who is on the registry that may or may not should be. COULD be...not that there WOULD be, and not that I sympathize or advocate for anyone who may or may not be on that list. It was an honest question from a student who sees stuff like this every single day.

What you did, Mr. Taylor, was imply that I'm a naive idiot who sympathizes with someone whom you argue would sexually harm a child. This is not to be borne. Tread lightly, and remember who you're talking to--I'm not some liberal troll looking for a brawl. We're on the same side here.

Actually, I spent a whole semester pondering nothing but the rules of Evidence, and I actually get to whip them out quite frequently for some practical application, so maybe you'd like to discuss them sometime. I'm down.
