MARRIED TO HILLARY'S GAL PAL




Anthony Weiner was sentenced to 21 months in prison for having lewd exchanges with a 15-year-old girl on Skype and Snapchat.

Weiner captured an important distinction that has been lost in our culture, which tends to over-pathologize problematic behavior.

It’s what legal scholars and philosophers call “diachronous responsibility.”

According to Stephen Morse, a law professor at the University of Pennsylvania, a person is not responsible at the moment of committing an act, as long as three conditions are met: He must a) be responsible at other times, b) know or should know that he is at risk of causing those harms in a non-responsible state, and c) fail to take reasonable steps to prevent the harm from arising.

Mr. Weiner is three for three on the diachronous-responsibility test. I admire Anthony Weiner for what he did.


Signed, A LIBERAL
