a "sex offendor" in the White House ? [View All]

[Swagman]

A candidate's family should be exempt from a campaign but is there a special case to be considered when that candidate preaches morality ?



Bristol Palin became pregnant at the age of 17 ( a celebration of life) and the father of her child, Mr. Johnson is 18.( we do not know how long these 2 had been having sex )

In some states of the USA , California and Arizona, the father of Bristol's baby would have been convicted of a sex crime against a child, be branded a "peadophile" and forced to sign a "sex offendors register " for life. This would prevent he-and if he marries Bristol- both from a variety of normal daily activities-living within certain distances of schools, parks, swimming pools and churches. Mr Johnson woud be prevented from applying for a host of jobs where he may come into contact with children. He would be required to complete a form twice a year and if that form wasn't returned on the correct date he could be arrested and jailed.

Ms Palin and Mr Johnson may marry, have a tribe of kids and a happy marriage for the next 40 years..but for that lifetime he would be branded as a "sex offendor".

In other states, the law would look into the ages of the 2 when sexual acts took place. Imagine what sort of life these 2 and their children would have if Mr Johnson & Ms Palin had lived in Calfornia..probably a living hell.

Mr Johnson is clearly not a peadophile and what he and Bristol do is no-one's business. Luckily for them they live in Alaska and are within the law.

But that isn't the case for nearly 2 million other Americans.
