**** I'm Back****

I hope somebody missed me besides Melanie (Plaid Toaster)...LOL. I'm gonna
Rant 'N Rave today. Here goes...

True Story : A fireman in my city was caught having sex with a 16 year old girl on the boiler room floor of one of our local firehouses. Evidently, the girls best friend told her mom who then , thankfully, called the police. Take his ass to jail and throw away the key, right?. Not in Washington state. Here, the age of consent is, take a guess?, right, 16 years old, unless the adult is in a position of trust (teacher, scout leader, so on). I guess firefighters aren't included in this equation. Oh, it gets worse. He met her on an adults-only internet site he accessed from the firehouse computer. Don't worry, it gets even worse. During this hot-house love-fest, he set his digital camera to take about 30 pictures, which he kept on the memory card, at least until the cops came. It gets even worse. When 2 detectives showed up to ask him why he was boinking teenagers while on duty at our local firehouse, he told them he didn't know she was only 16, she told him she was 22.

As amazing as this all sounds, it gets even WORSE. The cops BELIEVED him!!! They then told him he should delete the pictures from his camera because the girl was only 16, he could be charged with possessing child-porn. The cops then went and got into their cruiser and went off on their merry way.

We are right now 2-3 weeks later. An investigation produced a stack of documents that was presented to the Don-Juan firefighter, and he resigned, to go home to, oh, I forget to mention, his WIFE and young daughter.

So now our community is in an UPROAR. But not for the right reasons. We have womens groups, letters to the editor, newspaper articles, demonstrations in front of city hall, and visitors to the mayor. EVERYBODY is pissed-off , and rightly so, because these DUMB-ASS detectives told this horn-dog to delete these pictures and then they went on back to the donut shop.

Now, don't get me wrong here. Child-porn is just plain disgusting. True, this guy is an idiot for having these pictures. But in all the media coverage, letters, demonstrations, local news, etc, not ONE person has complained about this-------

WHY IS IT LEGAL FOR A 35 YEAR-OLD MAN TO F**K A 16 YEAR-OLD GIRL???

If they aren't going to at least charge him criminally, which they can still do because he DID have child pornography in his possesssion, then at the very least, why didn't he face disciplinary action as a firefighter?!! He may have been allowed to resign, but I sure as hell they didn't let him keep his pension intact!!
