    @1,@2,@3 ... absolutely pathetic and you should be ashamed of yourselves. Child abuse is a scourge, abhorred by 99.999% of the worlds population. Trying to use it to score points is contemptible. Are you that lacking in common decency?

    Guzz, there was just something on Reddit Argentina on a ten year old girl who was sexually abused, and the judges dropped it because
    she hadn't said 'no'.

    Sexual interaction with minors graphs w the development of a country.

    Does Argentina/Uruguay have higher standards than the avg income suggests?

    The less authoritarian the environment the safer the environment is, because the child knows they can say no to adults/authority as a natural thing.

    Heads up everybody. Guzz is on his monthly beeriod.

    Of course this sort of shit doesn't even make the news in SA it is so widespread and universally accepted. When it is outed here we are all over it scrambling to find the feckers involved and string them up by their knackers, even if they are dead. But I guess child abuse counts as porn in Guzz's head the sick Fcuk, but that wouldn't stop him or the rest of the Malvinista pedo ring on this forum using it to try to score cheap points. Two faced hypocritical child molesters the lot of them.

    Hey Guzz. This is interesting.

    In Uruguay.

    ”Between the ages of 12 and 15, there is an intermediary status where violence is legally presumed until otherwise proven.[25] In this case, the onus probandi (the burden of proof) shifts from the plaintiff to the accused, who still has the chance to prove in their defense that consent was given. Below the age of 12 proof of consent is not a defense.”

    So in your country, so long as the victim couldn't prove that violence was involved there wouldn't even be a case to answer unless the victim was under the age of 12.

    Twelve Guzz. Twelve. In your country, sex with a 12 year old is not considered as child abuse.

    You have glass widows Guzz. Stop throwing stones and stop abusing kids.

    You got that part wrong

    ”In this case, the onus probandi (the burden of proof) shifts from the plaintiff to the accused”

    Violence is legally presumed until proven otherwise, and the accused (most commonly known as the Brit), need to present proof he didn't commit a crime, as in prooving consent was given.

    Do you even understand your own language?

    @26 Guzz

    A fundemnatal priciple of UK law is that those alleging an offence must pove it in accordance with the rules of evidence, thus the onus of proof (beyond all reasonable doubt in crimal cases) is on the accuser and not the accused. There are some exceptions to this, where stated so by statute.

    A female under the age of 16 can not consent to sexual intercourse. This is called an irrebutable presumption of law, another is, a person under the age of 10 is incapable of committinfg a criminal act. Look it up.
