Obligatory. No blogger is allowed, by law, to not mention this monumentally ironic story:

NOVI, Mich. — A 33-year-old Michigan man is accused of wearing a “World’s Greatest Dad” shirt to a meeting for sex with what he thought was a 14-year-old girl.

Daniel Allen Everett of Clarkston was arraigned Tuesday in Novi on charges of child sexual abuse and using the Internet to attempt child sexual abuse.

A jail official says it isn’t known whether Everett has a lawyer.

A spokesman for Attorney General Mike Cox could not confirm whether Everett has children. But Cox says in a statement that the arrest is a reminder that “a parent can pose a threat to our children.”

Magistrate Andra Dudley set Everett’s bond at $50,000.

Finally someone who makes Alec Baldwin look like he’s almost a decent human being. Almost.

I’ve long maintained that our neighbors to the north were a devolving population of amoral, perpetual children, the product of a semi-socialist system that infantilizes adults by providing them with a permanent parent and gives license to moral bankruptcy by instilling a sense of entitlement in people well beyond what adults should have. The coverage of this disgusting case is stark evidence of this – read on and tell me what’s wrong with this article:

A Winnipeg man who hid the fact he was HIV-positive from his young sex partners has been convicted of six counts of aggravated sexual assault.

Justice Joan McKelvey convicted Clato Mabior, 31, yesterday of two additional counts of sexual touching and sexual interference. McKelvey acquitted Mabior of three additional counts of aggravated sexual assault involving three different victims.

At trial, the victims — one as young as 12 years of age — testified Mabior plied them with booze and drugs and engaged in repeated acts of unprotected sex without ever disclosing he was HIV-positive.

“He knowingly withheld that information from his sexual partners on the basis that in all likelihood they would not have engaged in sexual contact with him,” said McKelvey in a written decision released yesterday.

McKelvey called Mabior a sexual predator who preyed upon young, vulnerable victims.

“Young sex partners”? Really? These were children he was raping, and the idea that they were in some sort of control of the situation, that they could have refused him without being forcibly raped, is a naive view of the sadism at the heart of “relationships” where 31-year-old men give drugs and liquor to 12-year-olds then have sex with them.

The article goes on to dwell on the defense’s absurd contention that this pervert’s viral load was too low to infect the children he had sex with, but there’s no talk of the fact he shouldn’t have been having sex with children in the first place.

Any Canadian readers want to email me and explain what the hell is going on up there? By the gods man, six counts of aggravated sexual assault for having sex with multiple children, one as young as 12? It’s like they want sex offenders to flock to Canada.
