>Stallman quibbled over the definition of rape.

Hell yes he did. Wouldn't you? If I made my own country where "rape" was defined as "sex without first doing twenty jumping jacks," wouldn't you "quibble"?

>everyone admits knowingly slept with an woman of an age in a jurisdiction where that constituted rape.

So what? I drove 37 in a 35 today, who cares? You can't outsource your morality to the legal system like that.

If Minsky did something bad, say he did something bad. But don't launder your outrage through the VI's laws.
