I couldn't help but notice from the TV reports that Lisa Bonet Ramsey was a pretty hot little number. Has Peter Jennings been arrested yet for his part in the national media helping to spread child pornography? Kookie Roberts? What if I send the FBI a picture of myself pulling my pud while watching young Lisa strutting her stuff on the ten o'clock news? Will the newscasters be imprisoned for conspiracy in my thought crime?
As for whether it is "sick" to be sexually attracted to an "underage" person, I sure do recall being attracted to a lot of the girls in high school, and they were certainly nearly all "underaged."
