Just in the interest of clarity - and I know there is no real legal definition one way or the other - when you say "Child Molester", I think of inappropriate contact with someone 12 or under. When some 40 year old fuck is diddling a 15 or 16 year old, what you have is not pedophilia, but statutory rape, and I prefer the moniker "rapist".
I have a young daughter, and it's muddy terminology like this that makes my state's sex offender database useless. Is the sex assault of an adult with a child, or with a teenaged minor? There is a whole fucking (Hah!) world of difference between the two behaviors, and my response to them.
When I updated this thread with the picture of Chill EB and James Barbour I noticed the following. Tony Ortega also uses the term "child molester" to describe James Barbour:I understand. I used the term because: (1) the formal charge was too long to put in the title of the post; (2) legally the victim was a child; (3) the New York Daily News article referred to him as a "child molester," and what he did as "molestation." I certainly think what he did qualifies.
