The age of consent is 16 in England per the Sexual Offenses Act of 2003.

I think you're safe, Pete. :)

It depends on where the minor is located though. I just think you have to be really careful in this day and age talking to anyone privately online that is a minor. The simplest thing can be misconstrued and you can get yourself in a lot of trouble.

I'm not arguing that it's better not to engage minors online, however I like to be educated before I suggest someone is a trolling for underage pussy online.

Yes, you certainly are beating a dead horse. The type of person he has been found out to be has no business having any type of online conversation with a minor. I'm now done with this conversation.

Because you're not really saying anything? is that why? you've pretty much said the same thing with each response. I don't even know this dude from a hole in the wall. I don't pay attention to politics. It bores me to death but your argument that he's a would be pedophile is unfounded. Peter has a point and you can't seem to come up with a good argument.

So there was nothing indecent about the exchanges...right??? So why is it a big deal that a PUBLIC political figure actually took the time to interact w/ a young girl who's obviously interested in politics??? Just b/c of the other things he was doing??? Sorry, but I disagree that every contact he has w/ anybody should be scrutinized, especially when it's specifically been said that he did nothing wrong in this instance. Bet he talked to his 15 y/o grocery checkout girl, too...STRING HIM UP!!!

Have not bothered to follow this part of the story but is that his side of the story or the girls?

having said that........This is what happens when one lies like this moron did. He set himself up for everything and I mean everything to be scrutinized. He is the definition of everything wrong in a person in that position

It's in the OP. Even the girl's family says the messages were harmless.

Anthony Weiner admits he sent messages to teenage girl but denies wrongdoing

Embattled Rep. Anthony Weiner acknowledged Friday night that he had exchanged online messages with a 17-year-old Delaware girl, but his office insisted his dealings with her were "neither explicit nor indecent."
Weiner's statement came hours after police in New Castle, Del., confirmed they interviewed a high school junior Friday afternoon about her online exchanges with the New York lawmaker. The police visit was first reported by Fox News.
The girl, whose name was not reported because she is a minor, told the network, "I'm doing okay."
Sources close to the girl told Fox she followed Weiner on Twitter after seeing him speak during a school trip to Washington in April. Weiner subsequently followed her and direct-messaged the girl beginning on April 13. It's unclear what the message was regarding.
Weiner's office told the New York Times he had exchanged five messages with the girl. A member of the girl's family told the Times the messages were "harmless" but expressed concern that Weiner had exchanged private messages with a teenager.
Police said they questioned the girl and found no evidence of wrongdoing.
"They were made aware of an alleged contact between Congressman Anthony Weiner and an area teen," said Officer Tracey Duffy, a New Castle County police spokeswoman, told the Associated Press. "The teen has been interviewed and disclosed no information regarding any criminal activity."
On Monday, Weiner confessed to having risqué online dealings with six women who were not his wife and lying about it. During the press conference, he stressed that he had not physically met any of the women. He also said that none were underage "to the best of my knowledge."
On Thursday, Weiner insisted his would not resign from Congress. His wife, Huma Abedin, is reportedly pregnant with the couple's first child.

I agree he was wrong in the other instances and, although what he did wasn't illegal it WAS immoral, he should be reprimanded in some way as far as his position goes. Aside from that his wife is the only person who has a reason to be upset w/ him for his actions as far as perving goes. The rest of us should just be pissed that he lied about it...but how many of us are actually SURPRISED that a politician lied???

All I can add to my thoughts here is that I don't want any 46 year old man that has been sending lewd pictures to women, to be talking to my 17 year old daughter on Facebook no matter what the conversation is. And that holds true even if I didn't know about the pictures.

I have a 17 year old daughter and I agree with your comment 100%
