The man can't help himself

I watched the video of that. The girl was delighted.

Clearly, the "woke" generation hasn't had the opportunity to brain-wash her yet.

Yeah, he can't help being a decent human being. You guys are the obvious sick ones.

I wouldn't be surprised if you went around telling 10 year old little girls they are good looking.

An interesting defense. "It's not wrong if the victim doesn't object." Pedophiles everywhere are nodding in agreement.

Yup. Typical human beings stand behind 10 year old girls they barely met, bend over to breath down her neck and tell them how pretty they are. But then coming from a NAMBLA supporter it is hard to fathom what someone like you considers typical "decent" behavior

Ascribing evil intent to that kind of behaviour is a new attitude. Which is not to say that it can't be done with evil intent, just that sometimes it is no more than kindliness.
Not so long ago, politicians kissing babies was also considered reasonable behaviour. I think maybe now, there would be a large number of witch hunters keeping watch in the shadows for the opportunity to impugn the "felon."

He has a pattern of it.

I don't think he is a pedophile, but really, he KNOWS people have chided him for the inappropriateness of such behavior and yet he still does it. It shows a complete lack of self-awareness on his part. Not good Presidential material.

Speaking of sick.... are you still campaigning to lower the age of consent so young boys can be legal victims of older men?

In the world of today, it is inappropriate behaviour to hold a door for a woman - I still do it. It is inappropriate to use "he" as a general pronoun - I still do it (mainly because I know that the arguments against using "he" as a general pronoun are outright lies.) It is inappropriate to quote scripture in public - I still do it.

Sometimes it is best to resist the flow of public opinion that does no more than bolster a false narrative.

It's not universally inappropriate -- we do it all the time, and I never see anybody object.

The question is - "inappropriate for whom"? Holding a door open for women and using "he" as a personal pronoun is really only 'inappropriate' to the loony left.

I would think Biden's conduct is much closer to "universally inappropriate" than being a gentleman or saying "he" or referencing scripture in public.

I think you're comparing apples and hand grenades.

Or perhaps a person ten years of age is able to identify an action that poses no threat, though true enough, sometimes there are subtle differences between no-threat and threat that they might not recognise. Looking at the video (even without noting that Biden's action was done in public), no threat was in evidence. Honi soit qui mal y pense.

Absolutely agree. And if that were my 10 year old granddaughter, Joe would be leaving with a bloody nose.

You aren't running for POTUS.

Yup - if the girl had shown any sort of discomfort about Biden's approach, and he had not withdrawn, there might be an argument. He simply held her by the shoulders (I note there was no under the arm touching as he has done in the past) and she was entirely comfortable with it - ergo, no invasion of personal space.

Perhaps you haven't heard all the stories about little girls (and boys) who have been molested by someone who spent time grooming them. Doing seemingly harmless actions that may not raise any threats, especially to a child.

Even if Biden is completely innocent he is presenting an image that is not, and he should be more careful, especially since he's been called on it.
