Republicans and Democrats all seem to value sex more than careers, staying the course so. America must be a sexually repressed nation, and so making the act so precious. You nailed it!! The US is a basket case on the subject. http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/10/30/child.impersonation.ap/index.html?eref=rss_law Man sentenced to 508 years for assaulting 19 teens. CENTENNIAL, Colorado (AP) -- A 32-year-old man convicted of using his youthful looks to befriend and sexually assault teens was sentenced to 508 years in prison Monday. Of course had he simply murdered them he would have faired better. Ask O. J Simpson, or this guy. nbc4.tv LOS ANGELES -- A Burbank man who killed his mother and kept her body in their home for about two weeks was sentenced Friday to 17 years in state prison. David William Riddell, 41, was sentenced after pleading no contest to one count of voluntary manslaughter with great bodily injury for the 2004 slaying of his 59-year-old mother. And of course not content with keeping our children safe at home we must police the far corners of the Universe and enforce the law-even if it means jailing an 85 year olds, even if they think about it. ohn W. Seljan, 85 / Philippines: In Oct. 2003, John W. Seljan, <b/>85, was arrested in Los Angeles as he attempted to board a flight to the Philippines, where he allegedly intended to have sex with two Philippine girls ages nine and 12. At the time of his arrest, Seljan was found to have pornographic materials, sexual aids, and nearly 100 pounds of chocolates in his luggage, as well as currency. The ICE probe began in Aug. 2003 after border inspectors intercepted correspondence to the Philippine girls indicating that he planned to have sex with the girls there. On March 28, 2005, John W. Seljan was sentenced to 20 years in prison for six counts related to child sex tourism. In addition, Seljan will be required to register as a sex offender and must remain under court supervision for the rest of his life. That will teach him, carrying chocolates, porn and sexual aids, obviously guilty!! President Bush signed the Prosecutorial Remedies and Other Tools to end the Exploitation of Children Today Act of 2003 (PROTECT Act) into law in April 2003. More than 6,900 child predators and sex offenders have been arrested under Operation Predator. Meanwhile American mothers are entering their kids as young as 2 y.o. in "Beauty Pageants" "My daughter looks like Barbie," one said. "I tell her to exploit it. This is your life; you take what you have and run with it." Meanwhile, an unfazed announcer told the audience that the girl was 2 years old, from Massachusetts, and her life’s ambition is to bring happiness to all who come into contact with her.When some of the children lost baby teeth that had not been replaced by pageant time, their parents fit them with false teeth. When a girl’s hair was too short to curl like Barbie’s, fake additions were fitted. "Things like this showed me that these are not just contests to judge natural beauty," she comments. And theirs big money in it universalroyalty.com So a section of the US parent population devoted to making their kids sexy, loving, any desirable from a very early age, in a country where the age of consent is18 years old. Meaning, a sexual partner can be charged with a crime, arrested and jailed statutory rape. A country where billions of dollars are spent on cosmetics, plastic surgery, fashion and other beauty aids to make one sexually appealing. Yet, where paying for sex is a crime, nudity in public is forbidden. A country where Porn showing all types of sexual deviations can be had 24 hours a day. Yet where consenting adults can still be arrested for certain kinds of sexual practices. Some of the mothers and grandmothers from the Caribbean islands have a way of calming their young babies. They gently stroke the childs genitals when it cry's or is frightened. this has a soothing affect and usually results in the baby sleeping. One of them told me the first thing she was told when she arrived in the US was to never do that here, her friend told her they lock you up here for doing that Another friend I know from Africa had her 6 year old son dial 911 and report "mummy hitting me" after a spanking. He had been told at school this was what he had should do. The police arrived with a lady from social services ready to remove the child after the mother was arrested. Fortunately the policeman was reasonably intelligent and nothing happened. Yes we are an extremely sexually repressed nation!!!

>>America must be a sexually repressed nation<< So is China... <g> China bans strippers at funerals theregister.co.uk By Lester Haines Published Thursday 24th August 2006 10:19 GMT China has added strippers at funerals to its burgeoning list of proscribed activities, the BBC reports. Bare-assed ladies are apparently deployed at rural send-offs to boost mourner numbers, since "large crowds are seen as a mark of honour". To show they mean business, the authorities have arrested the leaders of five striptease troupes, including two involved in a farmer's funeral in Donghai county, Jiangsu province on 16 August, which was exposed by a Chinese TV station. Local officials subsequently ordered an end to the traditional practice - which they dubbed "obscene performances" - and declared that "funeral plans have to be submitted in advance", according to Xinhua news agency. And just to make sure the ban sticks, the powers that be have set up a hotline where concerned citizens can earn cash rewards for reporting "funeral misdeeds". For the record, the attendance at the farmer's farewell was estimated at 200. He can consider himself duly honoured. ® Bootnote We gather that strippers are commonly seen at Taiwanese funerals, where explicit displays are accompanied by hard-core commentary on the deceased's virility. Taiwanese lottery winners also hire strippers to disrobe in temples as a mark of gratitude for their good fortune. The C of E might like to consider this practice as a way of boosting congregations.
