    In some states they just straight up do the European thing where all that matters is being at least 16. In my state the age of consent is 16 and that’s also the age where you can be tried as an adult. They recently voted on whether or not to raise the age, and they decided no.

    There is still push for that to be changed, though only for the age of being tried as an adult. The former they’re kinda keen on keeping where it is.
