Adam Johnson guilty - 6 year sentence

People in Croatia won't give a fuck so he can go and play there. Does that help?

Well they wouldn't care and no one would bat an eyelid which is kinda crazy when here he is guilty of probably the worst crime you can commit alongside rape.

If I finger my Mrs on the beach out here in Qatar, we could (in theory) be put to death. No one would bat an eye lid in Magaluf.

You have to respect the laws of the country you reside in.
 
Look at this the other way around. The law is there to inform the adult not the child.
Correct. and this is where education/Intelligence steps in.
I don't consider him a peado on the same level as Saville
Just daft.
As I said time will tell.
If he carries on abusing kids then my view on him will change.

There's a huge difference between finding young, obviously children sexually attractive... and shagging a girl who is 15yrs (and 11mths) old who happens to be physically developed.
I remember girls at my school who had bigger curves than my ex girlfriend had at 26yrs old.

Yes and you would be stupid not to follow the laws. Saying that, could I comdemn the man that sentenced to jail for drinking beers in Saudi? It's one thing to not follow the law of the land, it's another thing to claim that that person is acting immorally.

Yes but all that proves was that he was stupid. It doesn't prove he is a terrible person. I don't agree with the fact that he and Saville are accused of the same crime.
 
Only in my head? What do you think people in other countries would make of it? It's allowed in other countries so clearly there is moral ambiguity around the issue.
Adam Johnson doesnt live in other countries. That is the point and its an abundantly black and white one. There is no philosophical grey area here, we have laws which are designed to protect vulnerable persons. And no, I do not propose to get into specific debate about whether this girl was or was not vulnerable.

He has pleaded guilty to grooming - that is, deliberately exploiting a minor for sexual purposes. What bit of that don't you get??

But that's not what I am arguing. He clearly didn't follow the law, we know that. There is plenty of grey area when we actually look at it and that's my point.
