1. No.

I could be wrong, but I believe that age of consent in NC is 16. In most states the Age of Consent is under 18yrs old. Honestly, I'm not really sure what the age of consent means, legally speaking. Maybe someone else here does.

2. Yes, full age of consent is 16 in North Carolina

Do we have any idea what it was in 1925?

See http://www.ageofconsent.com/ageofconsent.htm for a lot of good information.

4. Strom Thurmond....

raped a child,and all these defenders of his I have been hearing for the last two days would sing a different song if it were a democrat
that had a child out of wedlock as the result of the rape of a child.
The hypocrisy of the right never ceases to amaze me.
