This Barton story is nonsense.
I’m not even sure what he did wrong here? Had a consensual relationship with someone while separated from his wife?
Even if he wasn’t separated from his wife at the time, whoever leaked these photos should see jail time.
:rotf:

8. If you don't want your genitals plastered all over, don't send the photos of them to people.
which, while is good common sense, still isn't a crime...

68. So you're saying he was asking for it?
I hope you realize what your post sounds like.

76. He demonstrated "republican family values"
Deplorable.

123. If your sexual partner sent you pics, you'd show them around?
If it was, say, your husband or boyfriend? Remember, he is saying he sent the pics AFTER he'd been in a consentual relationship with this woman for a while. He didn't send them to a random stranger.
I had a girlfriend in college who gave me a few nude Polaroids once. Would I have been in the right to spread them around after she cheated on me?
Nickie is looking to get tombstoned for talking such heresy.

134. You mean we need to be just as despicable as they are
No high road here.

135. actually yes
we lost because of dirty tricks...we need to be just as shitty as they are to win. It's all about the win because if you don't win...then you can't enact your vision

6. Bringing the Capitol Police into it was a nice touch though
I think that, um, angle, could stand some more illumination. Kind of fascist, don't you think?

11. Revenge Porn is a crime in many jurisdictions
Glad they are investigating
Yup. It is in Texas.

56. That isnt the point; he was strong-arming her
He’s a powerful congressman and she’s a nobody. How would she know what the Capitol Police were ready to do on his behalf?
:whatever:

34. Exactly. Weiner resigned over sexting with adults.
When I pointed that out, some people started to claim, well Weiner was married. But so was Barton.
Some people are on the wrong website, clearly. They should go to free republic.
And by the way, weren't Weiner's photos all over the internet too? Why didn't anyone defend him as a supposed victim of revenge porn?

87. Revenge porn wasn't illegal in NY at the time Weiner got caught
In addition, in at least one instance, he was the one that publicly disclosed the photo of himself (by posting it on his public twitter feed).

38. He threatened to call the police if she exposed him
Is that enough?
Because, DUmbass, it's against the law to do so.

42. The police confirmed an investigation
Because it looks like she possibly broke some laws in both Texas and DC.

92. The amount of hypocrisy can be astounding, sometimes
If the sexting was between two, consenting adults, I have no problem with it. And if she leaked the photos, as much as I dislike Republicans, he's the victim here. Doesn't matter which party he belongs to.

ZERO sympathy here
