12. Good point.

In my state, an 18-year-old male who had sex with a 16-year-old girl was sentenced to 34 years in prison without possibility of parole. He has now in his 11th year behind bars with another 23 to go. Might as well be a life sentence, when you think about it.

Slippery slope indeed, but could be good for the economy since lots more prisons will need to be built and think of all those jobs.

:sarcasm: just in case it's needed.

Actually, not so much sarcasm as despair. Where the hell are we headed?
