to consenting adults. Clearing, an adult interacting with a minor is distinct and the adult should face harsh legal consequences. And if that is the case with a politician they need to be removed from office. Anthony Weiner is the obvious example. He had been one of my favorite members of Congress until that case was exposed. But, again, that is distinct from if Weiner was sexting another adult.
