An ex-diplomat convicted of having sex with teenage girls in the Congo and Brazil and taping the encounters is asking a judge for leniency, claiming that cultural differences in those countries make sex with girls more acceptable.
Gons G. Nachman, 42, pleaded guilty in April to possessing child pornography after admitting that he had sex with 14- to 17-year-old girls while serving as a consular officer in Brazil and Congo and documenting the encounters in pictures and videos.
What do you want to bet that lunatics like Peter LaBarbera, James Dobson and David Benkof won't tie this to the "heterosexual lifestyle?"
When a gay person behaves in such a way it somehow reflects the entire GLBT Community. But, when it is a straight person, it is only the fault of the individual. Clearly, if these fringe, nutjob activists don't comment on such a scandal, it means that they are hypocrites who push a double standard to support their bigotry.

I've been saying this for years. Why is it the pro-family moral majority NEVER go after their own kind? The AFAm among others, was pretty silent. Look at the recent Vito Fossella scandal, NOT ONE leading republican reprimanded him, criticized him and nobody from the religious right condemned him, not even his own church. Its more than a doublestandard. Its nothing more than bigotry and hypocrisy towards our own people and its about time something was done about it.

Rob didn't we already establish that "pro-family" is just a code word for hating the gays?
