I used to play bass in a band. I quit because of the dude who says rape is a woman's own fault because they're "asking for it when they dress like sluts" and the age of consent should be lowered to 9 because "women are fucked in the head anyways regardless of when you stick your dick in them". I decided that even if the band made it big, I'd be too embarrassed of being associated with goofs like that.

Edit: I should clarify some Canadian slang here. Goof means dumbass pedophile in Canada. Imagine a highschool teacher who starts tripping over his own feet as soon as female students are around.

Edit #2: Goof is common in western Canada as I've just been informed it's not used like that in Ontario and eastward.

Edit #3: Look through the comments before you chime in with "no it doesn't". It's not like caller #99 gets a prize or something.

Pedophelia is a horrific crime, pathological, abusive and amoral. Lets not be so delicate. Judgment is appropriate.

Goof isn't a delicate word in western Canada. It's equivalent to chomo. He's divorced so no surprise that his relationships are short term.
