Crimes Committed Outside the US
US citizens have been and are being actively prosecuted for crimes, especially sex crimes, committed outside the US. If an American prosecutor has evidence of one of these crimes you've committed, let's say, in Thailand, they'll be waiting for you at the airport.

You are as wrong as you can be
[QUOTE=IslandGuy1999;3637518]The issue on the table is not a matter of opinion. You made the statement that a person can be arrested for things that they do in other countries here in the United States. They cannot be arrested in the United States unless the United States is extraditing that person back to the country where that crime was committed. I'm not trying to ruffle any feathers that's just facts.[/QUOTE]I literally posted the law that says you can. A simple google search will probably give you a few million pages explaining why you are wrong.
Here's the statute
SEC. 105. PENALTIES AGAINST SEX TOURISM.
(a) In General.--Section 2423 of title 18, United States Code, is
amended by striking subsection (b) and inserting the following:
[[Page 117 STAT. 654]]
``[b](b) Travel With Intent To Engage in Illicit Sexual Conduct.--A
person who travels in interstate commerce or travels into the United
States, or a United States citizen or an alien admitted for permanent
residence in the United States who travels in foreign commerce, for the
purpose of engaging in any illicit sexual conduct with another person
shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 30 years, or
both.
``(c) Engaging in Illicit Sexual Conduct in Foreign Places.--Any
United States citizen or alien admitted for permanent residence who
travels in foreign commerce, and engages in any illicit sexual conduct
with another person shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not
more than 30 years, or both.[/b]
``(d) Ancillary Offenses.--Whoever, for the purpose of commercial
advantage or private financial gain, arranges, induces, procures, or
facilitates the travel of a person knowing that such a person is
traveling in interstate commerce or foreign commerce for the purpose of
engaging in illicit sexual conduct shall be fined under this title,
imprisoned not more than 30 years, or both.
``(e) Attempt and Conspiracy.--Whoever attempts or conspires to
violate subsection (a), (b), (c), or (d) shall be punishable in the same
manner as a completed violation of that subsection.
``(f) Definition.--As used in this section, the term `illicit sexual
conduct' means (1) a sexual act (as defined in section 2246) with a
person under 18 years of age that would be in violation of chapter 109A
if the sexual act occurred in the special maritime and territorial
jurisdiction of the United States; or (2) any commercial sex act (as
defined in section 1591) with a person under 18 years of age.
``(g) Defense.--In a prosecution under this section based on illicit
sexual conduct as defined in subsection (f)(2), it is a defense, which
the defendant must establish by a preponderance of the evidence, that
the defendant reasonably believed that the person with whom the
defendant engaged in the commercial sex act had attained the age of 18
years.''.
(b) Conforming Amendment.--Section 2423(a) of title 18, United
States Code, is amended by striking ``or attempts to do so,''.
American citizens can absolutely be arrested and prosecuted for actions they take outside of the USA regardless of the legality of the action in the other country. This has been shown to you several times so please stop saying it's not true.
