An 18-year-old Donald Trump supporter is facing a felony charge after police say he threatened two Kamala Harris supporters with a machete as they campaigned outside a Florida early voting site.

    If I told you, “Gary’s fucking a teenager,” I’m guessing you wouldn’t assume that teenager was over 18 and would be thinking maybe the authorities should be contacted.

      I absolutely would. Do you watch porn? There’s a whole “teen” category

        Sorry… you would “absolutely” assume that if I told you that “Gary [i.e. someone we both know on a first-name basis] is fucking a teenager” that the person was of legal age because of a porn category?

        Because I’m pretty sure we don’t mutually know a porn star named Gary.

        This also makes me worried about your feelings on incest.

          Wow wtf is that kind of strawman? Do you not see the basic correlation between “fucking a teenager” and “fucking a teenager in porn”? porn has normalized that fucking a teenager is 18

            Do you not see the basic correlation between “fucking a teenager” and “fucking a teenager in porn”?

            Yes, the same correlation between “fucking his daughter” and “fucking his daughter in porn.” When you hear Gary’s doing it, you call the fucking cops.

            Most people are able to distinguish what they see on a screen from reality.

              Why are you even talking about incest? What’s your obsession with fucking your daughter?

                This is you, correct?

                What is another porn category? I’ll give you a hint, it starts with an I.

                    I admit, if someone tells me Gary is fucking an Indian hottie, I assume that hottie is an adult.

                  My point is that porn has normalized teen meaning 18+ in regards to sex. Your comment was about having sex with a teenager. Incest has nothing to do with any of this and i can’t understand why you’re going down this road

                    Are you sure about that? Really sure? Because all of these headlines are from the past week (really) and none of them are the same person or media outlet. So it’s weird that these people are in legal trouble for doing something legal, wouldn’t you say?

        And quite a few of those ‘teens’ are well over twenty.

        Or so I was told.

          My favorite is when they’re “just turned 18” in one video and “MILF” in the next.

          They are, of course, not technically mutually exclusive, but one doesn’t normally imagine much overlap between those genres.
