Oh Gawd, here we go with the "I'm on medications" defense. And he "never intended to meet or touch anybody?" OK, he said he wanted to marry and make love to the girl - and no meeting or touching? Yeah, right. I know that some people will say the girl is 15 and it's not the same as him going after a young child; however, the fact remains she IS still "jail bait," and as he's over 60, he's more than old enough to know better.

<<He did tell Judge William J. Furber Jr. he is taking medication for bipolar disorder. Marmon also said he never met the girl.>>

Bull*t reason for the behavior.

I hope this guy goes to jail for a long time.

Ruin your life over some chat? What a waste.

Hire a prostitute if you must, but why would anyone do this?

Surely by now EVERYONE has seen the Dateline specials?????

"After the hearing, defense lawyer Todd Henry of Philadelphia said Marmon regretted what he did.

''Since the day he was arrested, he has accepted responsibility. He never intended to physically meet or touch anybody,'' Henry said."

What else do you expect the filth to say out loud? "OH CRUD! Now you've messed up all the plans I had to abuse this kid... I was going to ---- and ----- and ----"
As if that would ever happen! Why give him the benefit of the doubt?!?! If he never meant to meet or touch anybody why on earth would he initiate the contact? Liars.

Oh, and don't try to make him sound upstanding by saying he took responsibility when he was caught. What else was he going to do when caught red handed? IF he was a decent human being this never would have happened in the first place.... or he could have taken himself out. Upstanding men do not buy little girls negligees and ask for nude photos.

It seems that there is an epidemic of pedophila out there. What drives these batards? It's not just old men either. Where are our great psychologists? Can't anyone come up with any ideas on how to stop this stuff?

I don't think it would matter. Take their computers away. We need to educate every child once they can understand it. They MUST, MUST, MUST report it to a parent.

Imagine how you would react if someone proposed doing the same to all the minority fathers of babies of underage girls out there...

...And have you noticed all the stories in the Morning Call about public school teachers?

Meanwhile the Morning Call considers it shocking news if a middle-aged woman claims that a long-dead Catholic priest touched her decades ago...But people only notice what goes with their prejudices.

We don't have an epidemic of pedophilia as much as an epidemic of violent crime, but the media finds it safer to be against the losers who are caught with a minor.

Daily Horoscope for December 27

Taurus

Make a big effort to spend time with people you didn't see on Christmas Day, especially if they're older than you or are having a bad time at the moment. You're brimming over with compassion and empathy, which will be really appreciated by anyone who's on the receiving end of them. You're also in the mood to make allowances for people, and that will help enormously.
