Re: Pick A Side
So, profiles in courage that you are, you’ve decided to take a bold stance against (checks notes) iopeople attracted to minors. https://x.com/MinnesotaDFL/status/1902478708142702817
Pretty icky.
But wait – it was just two years ago that the DFL-controlled legislature passed a law, signed by Piglet, that removed “Minor Attraction” from the list of exceptions to the MN Human Rights Act.
The media’s Democrat-fluffery industry breathlessly told everyone it didn’t “protect pedophilia“.
And that’s true – technically. It doesn’t make sex with underage people legal.
What it did was open the door to litigation the next time someone who is attracted to minors suffers any form of discrimination if their attraction becomes public knowledge.
Which is, let’s be honest, where slippery slopes start.
So – the DFL is being hypocritical about this one two levels – they started paving the way to make this sort of behavior acceptable (in Democrats), and as the GOP leads the way to expelling Eichorn, Nicole Mitchell – equally accused of a couple of felonies – remains covered by the DFL’s code of omertá and the network of DFL judges.

YET AGAIN, former commenter Kermit’s phrase rings true: If it weren’t for double standards, the left would have none.

For crying out loud! Justin goes only when Michelle goes. Those are the new rules!!! Maybe I’m wrong, but i think we could have used Justin as a bargaining chip.

Seems the Feds are wrapped up in this thing. I’m holding back my sentiments for all the facts to come out. Eichorn is going to have big problems for many years any way you cut it. Regardless I’ll shed no tears for the guy.

Congrats on the (resuscitated) HotAir gig, Mitch. Good post.

Context of that screenshot is interesting….Eichorn needs to go either way, as prostitution is abusive inherently, but the “when do you turn 18” question is suggesting that he’s got a good path for a plea deal down to just plain old being a “john”, IMO.
Unless, as Scott points out, the feds are interested in a lot more.
Also, given that it was an online sting, one has to wonder what percentage of the online solicitations for this kind of thing are actually FBI and such, much like the old joke about KKK meetings being 2/3 FBI.
