on an excursion to portland, after speaking with an anti-pedophila activist friend of mine,

Zachary Frank Seidel today expressed to me a desire to lower the age of sexual consent to age 13.

i will no longer have any association with him, as i find child rape, pedophilia, and campaigning for decriminalization of child rape to be extremely offensive.

i asked him if he had an ulterior motive, or a secondary motive, or if he is attracted to children.

he said "not usually"

i have heard that at some point Seidel was sleeping by a school.

i am extremely troubled by attitudes towards decriminalizing statutory child rape, and am willing to share this information with persons who may be concerned or vulnerable.

please feel free to share this information.

i presume we are all anti-childrape here, whereas in Portland the mayor Goldschmidt was raping his babysitter for years, and she died of depression related substance abuse. 

Seidel has said numerous other offensive or threatening things surrounding his sexist worldview.

his last statement was something about legalizing the abuse he suffered as a teenager to get away from his abusive father

i understand abused children can become sympathetic towards their perpetrators, or seek to re-enact scenes of abuse.

i find it extremely troubling and do not have the specialty or temperament to deal with more heavy trauma of this nature.

i don't know what the best way forward is, but guard your grandkids, and i am so sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings.
