RE: Why I'm Against Age of Consent
I'm for total abolition of government. In a stateless legal system - a private industry of arbitration & security - the courts would have no lucrative choice but to operate based on ethical science, which allows for no concept of "legal age".
So surely you believe in contract law? What age should children be allowed to enter into a legal contract such as marriage, or a car loan?
When they are responsible enough to understand the consequences.. The government determines wether you are a adult or a minor if you commit a crime at 15, 16 or 17... depending on their mood..they really have no right to interfere in anything other than that..
Age should not be a factor. You can enter a contract as soon as you intend to do so, the test is asking.
