"California Is Relaxing The Punishment For Adults Buying Children For Sex"...
“SB 1414, new law in California. The punishment for buying a child for sex in California is now punishable by 2 DAYS in county jail. 2 DAYS in county jail. It's no longer punishable by prison”
“I am blown away”

🤢 These people are sick! 🤮
“I'm talking about children, minors, babies, kids that don't have good parents that are just out on the street, kids that the system has failed, 2 days in jail to sell them. I wanna put this into perspective for you. I was sentenced to two and a half years for breaking my curfew on felony parole in Ohio at 22 years old. Years. They are getting 2 days for soliciting children.”
“This bill was originally supposed to change this from a misdemeanor to a felony, and yet they instated a 2 day in county jail punishment. That is like a DUI. That is a domestic violence. That's an assault charge. Misdemeanor assault charge.
That's physically yelling at somebody you can get 2 days in county jail for. But in California, you can sell a child or buy a child and spend 2 days in county jail.”
Who introduced this legislation? It didn’t just arrive from nowhere. Who’s the sponsor?
I bet it was Weiner . Yes there’s a government official with the last name of wiener and he is gay.
You are correct. Scott Wiener is the one who gutted the bill from being a straight up felony to human sex traffic all children under 18 to this: From https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/bills/ca_202320240sb1414:
"This bill would make this offense applicable only to a defendant who is 18 years of age or older at the time of the offense. The bill would, if the person solicited was under 16 years of age...make the offense punishable as a wobbler by imprisonment in the county jail for not more than 1 year and a fine not to exceed $10,000 or by imprisonment in the county jail for 16 months or 2 or 3 years. For a 2nd or subsequent offense under those conditions, the bill would require that the offense be punishable as a felony by imprisonment in the county jail for 16 months or 2 or 3 years."
So no punishment if a 17 year old buys an infant repeatedly. No punishment if the child purchased was 16 or 17. Its only a felony if the purchaser gets caught purchasing a child 15 or under a second time. It may be better than existing law, but this is still not good. :(
Edit to add: The woman who introduced the bill, Shannon Groves, was aware that Wiener is working unlawfully without an oath and she could have had his changes stricken. But she didn't, so I think she's in on it: https://gwsandiego.net/blog/?p=2822
