On the recordApril 30, 1996
A Manhattan judge has okayed tax breaks for pedophiles. The judge upheld the tax exempt status for Zymurgy, Inc., an organization that advocates sex between men and boys. The judge ruled freedom of speech extends even to those who advocate man-boy sex. Mr. Speaker, where did this judge get his law degree, the back cover of Bazooka bubble gum trading cards or what? Will America, now Congress, subsidize pedophilia? The truth of the matter is some of these judges have become so book smart, they are actually street dumb. I think it is time for Congress to take a look at some of this judicial branch decision-making process. Sounds pretty constipating to me.
