the law is the law. even if we don't agree with it. As soon as it's okay to bang 17 year olds, you'll have someone arguing it's okay to bang 16 year olds. Then 15, 14, etc.
Sorry, but it's the law. "bending" the law makes it okay for cops to shove people, and whatnot. "Bending the law" makes it okay to do a lot of things.
This whore should lobby her local congressman to change the law so she can fck 17 year olds.
