Do you know what "age of consent" means? I'm not defending the action or morality of it. Just pointing out the legal aspect conveniently ignored.
I was reading the laws and noticing that they do treat the under 18 differently, which doesn't make sense because their age of consent is 16. I'll bet his lawyer has fun with that inconsistency in law.
I dont care if the young man was of age. Holier than thou State Senator gets caught with male lover in motel, he is out of a job lying POS.
The inconsistency in law took me by surprise.
I should have known better.
If the age of 16 is the age of consent, then that should also be the division for other sexual matters.
Well, that guy is finished.
Younger than 18 in Oklahoma is child prostitution.
This is the charge:
Ralph Shortey charges | | normantranscript.com
Sounds serious over here on this side of the river. So as has been noted to the thread, if the right and religious ideologues would accept human sexuality rather than make up their own ideas about and against it, situations such as this among many others would need not occur.
Well this sort of stuff probably happens to a lot of people from both sides of the political railroad track. But what gets me is the "party of family values" are harder on the left and not just as hard on their own when this goes down. :roll:Lets see: Conservative, check, Evangelical Christian, check, Politician, check, Birther, check, State Chair for Trump Campaign, check.
Why is it that the most rock ribbed evangelical Christians always get caught doing this kind of stuff?
Oklahoma Senator Caught In Hotel Room With Underage Boy
Oklahoma Senator Caught In Hotel Room With Underage Boy

Family Values: Christian conservative and Republican state Senator Ralph Shortey is busted with an underage boy in his hotel room; police recommend 3 prostitution-related charges.
Senator Shortey, a member of Donald Trump’s leadership team in Oklahoma, will be charged with soliciting prostitution of a minor, prostitution within 1000 feet of a church, and transporting for the purpose of prostitution, according to a report filed by KOCO News.
Shortey was found with a teenage boy in a motel in the town of Moore on the night of March 9, after an anonymous tip was made to police requesting for a welfare check on the hotel room.
Lt. Kyle Dudley told NewsOK.com:
On March 9 … officers of the Moore Police Department were contacted in reference to a welfare check at a local hotel. Responding officers found a juvenile male in a hotel room which was also occupied by an adult male. The circumstances surrounding this incident are currently under investigation and no additional information can be released at this time.
Shortey, 35, represents Oklahoma City. Elected in 2010, the senator is a prominent Christian conservative in Oklahoma politics, known for being a birther, and a Trump supporter. Raw Story reports Shortey was the state chair of President Donald Trump’s campaign during the primary elections.
According to reports, Shortey “attended Heartland Baptist Bible College in Oklahoma City in preparation for mission work in Uganda,” before beginning his political career.
Before being busted with an underage boy in his hotel room, the anti-abortion, Christian conservative made national news in 2012 when he proposed a bill that would ban human fetuses from being used in food.

Well like that Evangelist who was tripping with hookers, he asked God for forgiveness.

Ahhh but you don't know OKLAHOMA law, which the OKLAHOMA State Senator should be well aware of.
When it comes to PROSTITUTION it is a felony to have sex with a MINOR (under the age of 18). As a 'freebee' it would be legal, as a hooker and trick it isn't.
Welcome to the buckle of the Bible Belt...eace
It looks bad, but even for a Trump supporting evangelical republican caught in a highly dubious situation, it is still innocent until proven otherwise. But the damage to his political career most likely is tremendous. Because let's be honest, it is not like he is Carlos Danger.
prostitution within 1000 feet of a church
Before being busted with an underage boy in his hotel room, the anti-abortion, Christian conservative made national news in 2012 when he proposed a bill that would ban human fetuses from being used in food.
so prostitution is already illegal but it's even more illegal to do it within 1000 feet of a church. wtf
since when have human fetuses been used in food?
:lamoLOL, if Shorty gets a free stay in 'Hotel Oklahoma' he won't have to pay for his sex with another guy .......
The inconsistency in law took me by surprise.

I love how this thread is full of liberals condemning two legal age adults (in OK) for having consensual sex while in other threads they rail against prostitution laws as a victimless crime
One set of hypocrites condemning another hypocrite, smh

Oh spin spin my right wing friend....
It's one group condemning someone from another group who makes YUGE political hay from being part of the 'Upright Citizen's Brigade' gets caught with a minor, breaking some of the very laws he is fighting to re-instate in a voter mandated change to the drug laws... :doh
HE is pushing a state bill to put the felony BACK in simple drug possession to include near churches, schools, etc after WE removed it... :roll:

Why is it that politicians get caught all the time regardless of their faith, or lack of.
Non Christians, and practicing Christians find this to be ugly.
Pig piling is one thing, but knocking Christians as being hypocrites is just another hack job on your part.
but it was underage prostitution. If no money was involved, this wouldn't be such a controversy.
