Something is SERIOUSLY Wrong Here...

Ok, in all seriousness we need to talk about something.

A 30 year old male teacher has sex with a 16 year old girl. He is fried. Buried. Dead. Haunted for the rest of his life.

A 30 year old female teacher has sex with a 16 year old boy, she gets away with a slap on the wrist and the boy is the new hero in town.

What is wrong with this picture?

Both teachers should be raked over the coals for corrupting these kids. Instead, its a joke in our country where all men say, "Where were these female teachers when I was in school?"

Take a father of a 16 year old boy and a 15 year old girl...the father would not be riled to anger or disgust if his son has sex with a female teacher. There might even be a beer or other sign of pride shared between them. That same father would load up a shotgut and have to be hit with a stun gun at the door of the school if a teacher touched his daughter. This is such a moral contradiction.

In both cases, adults in powerful positions can use their positions to persuade children, not capable of making the right call in this position, into consenting to sex. Whether there was aggressive action coming from the CHILD, the ADULT needs to say NO. It doesn't matter who was the aggressor and who was the male or female. It is RAPE. If an adult takes advantage of a child, it is RAPE. They are RAPED of innocence...RAPED of proper judgement...RAPED of the ability to properly respect the opposite sex and respect the power and importance of sex.

I just don't get the double standard. When a man rapes a girl, he is put through the fire and rightfully so. Yet, its almost acceptable for a woman to rape a boy.

This is just another in a series of problems that are really getting me worried about the plight of our country and our world.

About Me...And This Blog Site...

My name is David A. Ebert, the oldest of two siblings produced by my parents, Leah and David G. Ebert. We are all Republicans, but I take it a toke or two...well, closer to 10 tokes...further than my parents,

I am very much a Right Wing Conservative. I am a Reagan Conservative. I believe Americans, in general, are smarter than elected officials in Washington, DC. We should be more in charge than the Government.

We, as individuals and families, should have more responsibility over our own, hard-earned money and not send more and more and more taxes to the out-of-touch politicians. I believe the government is there to serve us, and not us to serve them.

I believe in America's greatness and that, overall, we are the most generous, forgiving, intelligent, and genuinely decent country in the world. I also believe that we are the most powerful nation in the history of the world, but do not use that power to hold over the collective heads of other nations.

I believe that low taxes, intelligent spending of those tax revenues, strong initiatives on defense and education, and small government influence on the day-to-day lives of Americans are some of the most important ideals related to how the US should be operated.I believe in the freedoms granted by the US Constitution. I believe that judges should uphold and interpret the laws as written in the US Constitution, and not refer to any foreign legislation to make their historic decisions.

I believe the First Amendment, as well as the entire Bill of Rights, are the most important laws this world has ever seen.

I believe abortion is WRONG. I believe that homosexuality is WRONG. I believe that allowing anyone to publicly debate the possibility of lowering the age of consent, especially for young boys to consent to older men, is a tragedy of morality. I believe that organizations like NAMBLA should be publicly shunned and not given a platform to spew their harmful and dangerous rhetoric.

I believe there is a sad lacking in the ability of our nation to appreciate and accept self responsibility. We, as a nation, blame daddy, racism, sexism, classism, mommy, the mean teacher, the mean little league coach, the loud mouthed uncle, the financial status of the neighborhood in which we grew up in, and a million and one other reasons why we do not succeed. How often do we, as a nation, take the blame for our own mistakes? How often do you hear someone accept responsibility for their own mistakes? How often?

I am conservative. I am worried about the future of the country and the planet, especially if O-BOMB-A or Billary Clinton make it to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. I will start posting my fears, my hopes, my ideas as they all relate to news and politics. I hope to open some eyes and change some opinions with my writings. Most of all, I hope you will read my words and be inspired to find the truth...and not rely on Chris Matthews or Keith Olberman or Katie Couric or Matt Lauer for your opinions. I hope you will break the mold and do something unreal...unexpected...do something that O-BOMB-A and Billary are afraid of you doing...

THINK FOR YOURSELF.
