Like I said, had all cases been tried in the liberal media rather than in courts, nothing like this would happen.

Now, the court DID NOT say "oral sex not rape if victim is intoxicated, unconscious." The liberal media said that. What the court said was that "we believe it's rape but the current law doesn't define that as rape. We, as the judicial branch, can't arbitrarily change the law."

My real question is, if the legislature does change the law, how do anybody determine "intoxicated?" Is there a test that we can do? If I went on a date and had sex, how would my date know I am not intoxicated?

Yes, but the court ruled that way so CNN is correct.

Moving on...

Well, according to the current law IT IS NOT rape, why not blame who's responsible for that, the legislators , instead of making just another baseless 'liberal this, liberal that' rant?

sounds like the OP is being defensive, and rightfully so. How humiliating for any state to have such a law.

The court, though, was really parsing. The current law involves consent. Intoxication and unconsciousness would both be factors that would demonstrate a lack of consent.

Not intoxicated, incapacitated. Incapacitated people can't consent. Watch this.

It wasn't really rape, er "forced oral sex". Just a transgender looking for a restroom. Or something like that.
