Love is the concern for another's well being. Any acts in a relationship should only be done legally with mutual consent of both involved and only with members of the opposite gender.

The poeple who should be behind bars for actually and confessing to a sexual assault are out. A lot of minorities are the ones charged and convicted for minor things consential things. A lot of these girls lie about their age, shouldn't they be the ones to be convicted for lying? Even when the DA's have no evidence or charge anyone they have to make a case. People need to really think twice when they look at this sex offender websites alot of this offenders have no reason to be registering if you really look into some of their cases.
