I don't understand a word you said...

Reading comprehension is obviously a real problem in America.
Little wonder you cannot understand that much of our law comes from religion. For example: Sunday closings of businesses, outright prohibition of alcohol sales in many communities, prohibition of the sale of specified items like hardware on Sunday, prosecution for adultery, tax advantages and postal discounts for religions, etc.
Do not confuse the above with laws based on ethics, like the prohibition against murder and theft. Some religious law is hurtful with dire unintended consequences. In my view prurient interests in other peoples sex lives most often comes from puritanical religionists.
As for the Saudi reference, most people know that there is a special police force in Saudi Arabia that enforces religious law. For example, women are made to wear a black bag covering their entire body in 100-degree temperatures. Religions says this is for their *protection*. They are chattel to be inherited or thrown away. America is not so extreme but the principle is the same. Religion makes bad law. Many of our sex laws are BAD LAW. - Reply to this comment

This is why we have laws to protect teens since they are unable to make reasoned decisions.

If the **logic** of mecury69 were not so hurtful, it would be laughable. By imposing the prurient interest of religiously based laws into the lives of David and the two boys, misguided intentions and unintended consequences have destroyed lives. If the boy sent any photos, he could be labeled a *sex offender* for LIFE. Such laws DO NOT PROTECT. They do more harm to those they in tend to *protect* than can be imagined.
This sort of *protection* reminds me of the *protection* imposed on females in Saudi Arabia. Religion makes BAD LAW. - Reply to this comment

"Investigators said David was completely nude in both photos."

Well, THAT settles it! COMPLETELY NUDE!?! If God had wanted us to go about naked, we would have been born naked!

This is why we have laws to protect teens since they are unable to make reasoned decisions.
Adults, however, are. And they are to be responsible and care for the young in society. If not, they are punished as which MUST BE DONE.
Equally and impartially regardless of age, race or gender. - Reply to this comment
- If Lori Darling David has solicited sex via photos, then the publishers and staff of ELLE, COSMO, GLAMOUR, PLAYBOY, GOOD HOUSEKEEPING, FAMILY CIRCLE, LADIES HOME JOURNNAL, TIME, NEWSWEEK, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC and many other publications must be arrested for solicitation.

Living art... okay, you're not pathologically religious, just a kook. So, what compass should we use to dictate law? The feel good approach? I'll let the rest of the people commenting here disect that brilliant concept.

- Why should we allow religionists to define the human body as evil and ugly? Much of the world views the human body, MALE AND FEMALE, as **Living Art**. I prefer that view to the pathological religious viewpoint. Religion*s determination to view the world as evil and ugly has made the world evil and ugly. Police are doing the dirty work for toxic religionists who seek to impose their puritanical views on the rest of humanity. GET RELIGION OUT OF LAW.

- This sick woman is getting exactly what she deserves. For a grown woman to be pursuing a sixteen-year-old child is disgusting and, thankfully, illegal. Everyone who supports this sexual relationship needs to realize that a sixteen-year-old kid is guided by hormones, and additionally does not have the maturity or life experiences behind him to make informed choices, like that of a woman of 37 years. Obviously, that means she is in a position that allows her to take advantage of him! Also, what if she got pregnant? He's in no place to take care of a child - because he is one! Now do you see why this is illegal?
