What's wrong with admitting that she's a very attractive person? 1 year from now when she's legal, I doubt she will look any different.

True, here's a picture taken of her when she was 15

here's a set of 20 pics
McKayla Maroney

Edit: I wonder if she has Anthony Davis teeth, because she never smiles, only grins

 

[Willkiller]

she's 16

Hey man, these are the London games. If you play by our rules it's allllllllllllllllllllllllllllll good.

If an American male 18+ shags her, because they're in London does that mean it's legal?

 

[theignoramus]

it's really the one-two punch of what happened which stings most. bad/bizarre calls happen in football, that's just how it is. but two of them consecutively directly leading to a penalty kick? that's pretty rough.

those are the kinds of calls that make you suspect the integrity of the officiating.

I guess so yeah.

Yea. And depending on what state you live in in the US it's already legal.

This sounds creepy...

Wow really? So if a 16 yr old girl and a 19 yr old guy got married in a state where 16 is legal, and they moved back to the state they were born in, does that mean they can't have sex anymore? (sorry totally off topic)

I feel like I read the same discussion every 4 years.

They'd be married anyway, so not having sex would already be well covered.

 

[Nekki]

Her teeth are alright, it seems

Off topic (or is it On-topic at this hour? lol), my preferred athlete is Maria Kirilenko. So lovely!

 

[HoodWinked]

im glad to have destroyed this thread.

 

[Gorillaz]

I know I'm late to this, but this picture. My god.

I saw it last night as well. Everyone gave her a hug after the medals were given out and she just stood there like "back the fuck off" lol

It's legal, and you can bet your sweet ass one of the divers or swimmers was hitting that.

Oh man. That would have been amazing if she stuck that landing.

Aliya Mustafina, turns 18 next month, is the superior gymnast with an attitude at these games.

 

[LyleLanley]

Did I really just see one of the Russian gymnasts smile?

No, it doesn't.
Everyone else, yeah sure.

Someone responsible for NBC's selectively deceptive editing is going to get fired for this.

 

[LizardKing]

No, it doesn't.
Everyone else, yeah sure.

Huh? As with any other law, the law applies to you from the jurisdiction of which you are in, not where you're from. (btw, the age of consent in the US is 16 in about half the states, 17 in about 1/4 and 18 in about 1/4.

 

[Gorillaz]

woo lets go gabby

Did I really just see one of the Russian gymnasts smile?

it's only a matter of time until they begin to cry again.

 

[El Sloth]

That was sorta anticlimactic.

 

[OchreHand]

First time I've seen that Russian gymnast smile.

 

[Tamanon]

Good lord, Komova truly never looks happy.

the secret spy smile

NBC has fucked over our gymnasts with their fucking hype. awful commentators

heh... not so much with the US. Seems US law applies worldwide.

Though that might be limited to the MPAA etc.

I love em both. Glad to see Mustafina claim gold just now.

 

[OchreHand]

Gabby....last? Ouch.

NBC fucking it up like always.

 

[QuiteWhittle]

Then I must be mistaken. Can a pedophile travel to Iran and, while there, have sexual liasons with nine year olds?

 

[Sviatoslav]

She really deserves it. Without her ACL tear last year I think she would have won the all around too.

I was expecting rainbows and ponies erupting from midair during her routine.

 

[cube444]

she's 16

She's legal!

 

[Koodo]

LMAO, I thought people were joking when they said a judo medalist took down the bottle thrower in the Men's 100m.

Bless.

 

[Sviatoslav]

Gabby....last? Ouch.

She never really had a chance. Her difficulty was a 6.3 and all the medalists had a difficulty of 7.0 or 7.1.

Age of consent is a state law not a federal law.

Did a clown take a shit on her dress?

Our federal AoC is 18.

 

[Awesome]

Fun games.

When it comes to the internet, jurisdiction becomes a weird issue. I think Megaupload got hit because they had servers in the U.S. or something. I'm not sure.

Then I must be mistaken. Can a pedophile travel to Iran and, while there, have sexual liasons with nine year olds?

Yeah, just like you can go smoke marijuana in any of the countries where it's legal.

Sex outside the country. The PROTECT Act, §105(a)(c), modified the law against "sex tourism" and establishes an age of consent of 18 for Americans engaging in any sexual encounter outside the USA. Thus, even in places where it is legal and socially acceptable for an adult to date an adolescent, an American doing so is subject to prosecution for it by the US government. There is no exception for marriage, so an American of any age marrying anyone under 18 in another country, even with the blessings of the parents and with a legitimate marriage license from the local jurisdiction, is breaking this law.

 

[Kazerei]

http://solresearch.org/~SOLR/rprt/USnatlAoC.asp

Huh, never knew about that law.

The marijuana thing is true though, I swear

 

[LizardKing]

I will say I didn't know about this law. This is a special case I guess. But, after some digging, I found this law is mostly about child pornography. Also it seems no one has been prosecuted for the under age sex part, as the legality of it is considered dubious. Also, it outlaws commercial sex with someone under 18 and non commercial sex with someone under 16. So it's not a blanket 18.
