There are many posters here who defend rapists because the woman "asked for it" by her attire or behavior, or just made it all up because, you know, that's what sl**s do. We see it all the time on this forum.
Oh well, I suppose there's plenty of time.
Actually, no we don't see it "all the time". It's quite rare. But pretending it is common gives liberals a good excuse for being in their morally outraged mode. It's the same with racism. As long as they pretend there's a racist around every corner, liberals can continue to use the crusade against it to paint themselves as morally superior. It's much easier to campaign against racism and sexism than it is to actually come up with a plan for economic recovery that doesn't end up with shovel ready jobs not being shovel ready, healthcare reform that actually works as promised, or resets in Russian relations that don't end up with Russian troops occupying other nations.
There are a few states in which a consensual act between an 18 and 14 year old would be legal, but I believe Texas is not one of them.
Wasn't the rapist 20 years old? It's not like they were classmates in the same school, attending the same classes and functions. Or are they referring to his current age?
I doubt the politics of the people involved were the guiding ideology in their decisions. really people?
But yeah the best part was assigning him to a rape crisis center for his community service. I think the judge must have been on drugs. WTH?
I didnt suggest that.....All I did was suggest that no Republican/Conservative was involved in the case... it has been stated many times on this forum that Republicans hate women and we dont have an issue rape.... so Im just getting it out there that we conservatives in Texas had nothing to do with the case at all...
I did however, point out that the DA who is a democrat is a good man and has sought justice both for victims and for those falsely convicted....

He was 17 or 18 at the time of the rape. They were both students at the school. He raped her at school.

He's 20 now. He was 18 when he raped her. She was 14 when she was raped.
The judge should be removed. This is the kind of thinking that took place in the 50s and rapists got an easy walk and the women were left with the stigma of having been raped . Rape is rape, it doesn't matter if you are a virgin or a prostitute. I'm surprised the judge didn't say that when the girl said "no" she really meant "yes". No means NO!!
totally agree, enough is enough...this has to change, he should be stripped of his job....
