1) That's right because 8 year old girls frequently travel alone on trains, they love texting people who want to have sex with them!
2) Just call us (we want to have underage sex with you) and we'll meet you. We couldn't possibly consider that considering people are REWARDED for finding this stuff out, we'll be set up in a sting operation within the week.
I mean seriously,
Can anyone see how this was meant to work? Anyone?

There's a point to why the justice system recognises degrees of offence; paedophilia and rape can be no exception. Would you prefer to encourage "might as well be hanged for a sheep as for a lamb" behaviour?

Indeed. In fact I don't understand this at all - assuming the average life expectancy is 80 years, if you abuse a 10-year-old they have to live with the consequences for the next 70 years. If you abuse an 18-year-old, they have to live with the consequences for the next 62 years.
For some reason, causing somebody 70 years of psychological damage is considered to be OMG TEH EVIL whereas causing somebody 62 years of the same is just run-of-the-mill crime.

And you don't even get a reduced sentence if you murder them afterwards so they have less years of trama to endure!

Well if they did give automatic life sentences to paedophiles, as some people seem to want, you might as well murder them since you wouldn't get any worse a sentence (and you have the benefit of eliminating a potential witness).
