Nope, progressives aren't interested in preying upon children. Not at all:
"Earlier this week we talked about the shocking case out in Wyoming Montana where a 49 year old school teacher, Stacey Rambold, received a thirty day jail sentence for raping a 14 year old student who later killed herself."
"But against all belief, Betsy seems to think that the sentence Rambold received was a bit too harsh.

Sex between students and teachers should not be a crime
our society needs to have an uncensored dialogue about the reality of sex in schools.
As protesters decry the leniency of Rambolds sentence he will spend 30 days in prison after pleading guilty to raping 14-year-old Cherice Morales, who committed suicide at age 16 I find myself troubled for the opposite reason. I dont believe that all sexual conduct between underage students and teachers should necessarily be classified as rape, and I believe that absent extenuating circumstances, consensual sexual activity between teachers and students should not be criminalized. While I am not defending Judge G. Todd Baughs comments about Morales being as much in control of the situation for which he has appropriately apologized tarring and feathering him for attempting to articulate the context that informed his sentence will not advance this much-needed dialogue."
"This wasnt some Romeo and Juliette situation where we need to dance around the difficult questions of young people engaging in sex too early with their Main Squeeze after one of them barely passes the age of adulthood. This teacher is a middle aged pedophile, plain and simple. Does that sound judgmental and harsh? Good. Because thats the name we give to older men (or women in some cases) who have sex with children. And that 14 year old was a child, no matter how old she may have acted."
