    We should be extraditing him to the country where he broke the law. If it’s legal over there, well… that’s shit and we should put pressure on them to change that.

    But, while his actions are completely morally repugnant and he should be removed from society, I’m not clear on what law he broke in the US.

    Maybe it’s illegal to travel through federal land (airports) with the intent to rape? But if that’s the case, we may need to shut down our military airports.

      There is a law in the US that says if it’s a crime at home, you can’t do it abroad either.

      Which really seems like an overreach, but I can see why they’d use it for stuff like this.

        You’d think corporations would fall afoul of this constantly. But I bet it only applies to people

      I think it’d be more seen as a violation of trafficking laws, it’s fundamentally the same act and intent as bringing a sex slave into the US, just going the other direction.

      Wildly tangential, but did you know the military actually has their own vacation airport and hotel service? Like they get their own airline and everything, fuckin’ wild.
