You get put on a sex offender list for banging a 16 year old but she should have the right to vote?

Letting women vote was a mistake. Letting teenage girls vote would be a tragedy.

Is this a thing again? The argument for 18 year olds was fine when it came to the draft and such but I can't see a single argument for 16 year old's voting with much merit.

This thread is just another example of so many CFMB members odd tenacity to support/ enable sexual predators while demeaning the victims. Trumpkins sure see life through an "odd" lens.

The Democratic Party can't get votes from actual eligible voters so they have to look elsewhere.

It's nothing more than a counter measure to the right wings gerrymandering game plan. This evens things out.

So 16 is too young to consent to sex but old enough to select our leaders? Don't be a fucking douchebag.

Rape victims have nothing to do with this topic, so I am very puzzled why you invoked them here as a pawn in your argument.

Are you suggesting gerrymandering is something only Republicans do? Maybe you should check out Little Looie's district.

I guess you think the standard for consenting to sex should be higher than it is for voting. Why not give 12 year olds the vote?

Yet you are suggesting that only Democrats could use underage votes to their advantage..this isn't Burger King Joe, you can't have it both ways.

That's a bad argument. How do you think the majority of 16 and 17 year olds would vote? I assure you it isn't the Right pushing this silly idea.

The votes would trend similar to traditional voting demographics. You think 15 year old Buck Jr in Nebraska is going to vote for black or a woman? :lol:

Also your consent angle "HAS" nothing to do with this topic. Debate it on the issue at hand and stop using victims as your political capital. You are really bad at trying to start these political fires, stick to the previous game plan of having JLN create the threads.

16 year olds = bad decisions.

Staggeringly bad decisions.

We just saw 50% of this country(people over 18) elect Trump. It doesn't stop at 16.

Post subject:  Re: Giving 16 year olds voting rights movement
Think about what you're saying. Do 21-30 olds tend to vote Left more or less than 50-60 year olds?

This whole movement is rearing its head because some kids who got shot at are espousing the liberal talking points on guns. I guarantee if those kids were saying they should have all been armed to the teeth so they could have taken Cruz out, liberal dipshits on Twitter would not be advocating for giving them voting rights.

Of course it does. Just as America's point about trying kids as adults does. By changing the voting age you are effectively redefining "adult".

Oh so this movement is from "people on Twitter".

So not really a movement based in reality.

Whew.

That's absurd. It's no different than the driving age. That's a decision making process too. But it doesn't imply you have to redefine that standard of "consent".(Much to the chagrin of Trumpkins and Judge Roy Moore).

Post subject:  Re: Giving 16 year olds voting rights movement
In the end this really doesn't matter much IMO.....1/2 the population over 18 doesn't even vote and when they do they elected a game show host as POTUS. Could it really get any worse by allowing this?

I'm pretty sure it's real people supporting the idea. I suppose if you don't like it you could dismiss them as "Russian bots".
