There seems to be a trend of kids sending naked pictures of themselves and getting arrested. Just because he's a couple years older doesn't make him more "sick" than others. "Sexting" Leads to Child Porn Charges for Teens - CBS Evening News - CBS News
Were she 14, I'd feel your rage a little bit more. Since she's mere months from being legal in Cali and would be legal in many states, I'm not that concerned about it.
I assume you were outraged at Bob Dole doing the Pepsi commercial with Britney Spears then?
Um, why exactly? Who is being harmed by the practice? And how is it worse than just appearing naked in person, or using actual photos, both of which people of that age have been doing for quite a while?
Are we as a society going to stop creating moral panics where none exist or not?
Wow. You don't see an issue with teenagers sending a receiving naked picutures of themselves?

Oh yes a commercial is the exact same thing as sending pics of your junk to an underage chick.
And this isn't 25 and 31 or 21 and 28. 17 is not only underage for anyone to pretend highschool age and beyond college isn't a big difference is only fooling themselves.
Sure. We're going to "crack down" on it just as effectively as we cracked down on mooning and streaking in the 50s, and skinny-dipping in the 60s. :roll:
Teenagers who want to will find a way to show off their naked bodies.
Sexting seems more innocuous than some previous ways, in that they're not even doing it in person, but sitting at home alone in the privacy of their own bathrooms/ bedrooms.
The problem with sexting is that it getting distributed pretty quickly to everyone in town

Live and learn. :shrug:
LOL, Dr Laura did :lol:
I learned from her mistake, too: never get caught with your pants down, and a bush the size of a small South American country.
I'll confess right here that there is a video out there, made in a passionate and intemperate moment, that I hope stays deep in a dark closet never to be viewed again.
TEMECULA, Calif. -- An angry father is accused of using a stun gun on a 23 year old man who sent his 17 year old daughter an explicit cell phone picture.
William Atwood Sr., 45, was charged Wednesday with multiple felonies in connection with the case.
Authorities say Atwood lured Justin Moore to his home, ordered him to strip down to his boxer shorts, and tied him up and tased him with a stun gun before turning him over to a sheriff's deputy.
You wouldn't want me on that jury if you are the prosecution. I'd let him go free and clear. (the father)
Sick bastard. And what is a 23 year old doing with an underage 17 year old?
Are we as a society going to crack down on "sexting" with our children or not?
My favorite part:
Atwood told Moore he had connections with the Pechanga tribe and was going to have him buried on the reservation, court records say.
Prosecutors declined to charge Moore in connection with the photo for lack of evidence, said district attorney's spokesman John Hall.
What kind of crap is that? The phone company will have the evidence even if the phones are wiped.
Stun Gun Assault: Angry Father Uses Stun Gun on Daughter's friend over Naked Photo - KDVR
It sounds like the Dad got a tad overzealous and may be unstable himself. The age of consent in CA is still 18, so the Dad can make a complaint if the daughter was having sex with the man.
And if there is no evidence of the original crime -- then maybe there was no crime. The phone company might archive pix messages, but for how long?
As a father of two daughters, I understand where the Dad was coming from, but it seems like overkill.
Is a 30 y/o male and a 16 y/o female fair game? What's the limit?
All the father needed to do was turn the guy over to authorities. Since his daughter is a minor, I believe that there would have been multiple violations. I understand his anger at the guy, but what he did was against the law, and he should be changed and sentenced in accordance with that. Sorry, he has no right to violate another's rights because he's mad.
How, exactly, is a man sexually interested in a 17 year old a "sick bastard"?
What would YOUR reaction have been had this been YOUR daughter?
In asking this question of you or indeed any father who loves his children, i am hopeful that an honest reply will be given.
Wow. You don't see an issue with teenagers sending a receiving naked picutures of themselves?
Age of consent laws are tough - because technically any 17 year old boy sleeping with a 16 year old girl is committing a crime in California.
I can understand the father's anger, but he shouldn't have acted upon it. He didn't have the right to taser the 23 year old. He should have just told the police and filed any charges that he could. Vigilante justice is disgusting. The father deserves jail time. Who knows? Maybe the father and the 23 year old could be cell mates.
