Disgusting nauseating individual. Sickening to the max. Put him in the s;ammer for a very long time.

Not a smart thing to go after kids!

He was also a vociferous defender of the Netflix pedo-porn film “Cuties”.

In an interview with Variety in June 2020, Harris discussed becoming an Black gay icon and how he is a role model for young kids who might be struggling with their sexuality.[
You couldnt make this stuff up!

Maybe it was art! We shouldn't be so hasty to blame him!

LOL!
Goodlucktoyou
should not just be charged with porn, but also rape and attempted rape.

If that's so then he's setting a bad example and shameful image for all gays. Most gays are not sick perverts or assaulters. Some role model HE turned out to be!

Where are all the liberal defenders of Cuties and pederasty? Surely this guy is just maligned and misunderstood, right?

Good news! But sadly he is just a disposable nail on the machine. There are people who sniff little girls' scalps on live television and could still get away from it.

Andy Warhol spoke about everybody being famous for 15 minutes. As for this guy, he did it to himself. Do the crime, do the time.

He was 19 and they were 13. If he were one year younger and they one year older it would all fall under Romeo and Juliet statutes and suddenly half of all this would be legal.
The pictures would still be considered "child porn" though, which is straight up insane just like most of the points surrounding this whole discussion. Its basically saying an 18 year old male can have legal and approved hardcore anal sex with a consenting male 14 year old in full bondage gear, but to take a picture of that is a heinous and despicable crime. But what age did not have crazy contorted sex taboos and laws?
Also, its not pedophilia or pederasty to lust after male teenagers. Teenagers have young adult bodies, not child bodies. If people cannot even get basic terminology right they really should stop guessing and pontificating and start studying what words mean.

No he didn't. He didn't ask for his sexual desires. Imagine your sexual desires were illegal and considered morally depraved, and I can guarantee that at some time in some society, they were considered horrible crimes against everything. You too would wind up making bad choices out of frustration and maybe become abusive as well. Harris just had the misfortune of being born today rather than in ancient Thebes, Sparta or Rome. I submit he was driven to be abusive, same as Kevin Spacey.
