17 y/o sex assault victim faces jail for exposing her attackers
[url]http://yhoo.it/MhyIgn[/url]
Link now fixed. Broken b/c -blam!- filter.
My views in brief:
1) If the boys can post her naked pictures on the internet and send them to other peoples phones, this girl should be able to name her attackers publicly on twitter.
2) The boys should be tried as adults. What retards. They're grown enough to -blam!- women, yet get to cry behind their mother's skirts as the courts go easy on them because they're under 18 in this plea deal?
3) This all would have been prevented if the girl wasn't retarded in the first place, and passed out at that party. Not to say her -blam!- was justified, but ffs people, american tweens & teens need to learn to handle their -blam!-ing liquor, and be more responsible at parties where drugs are involved. Don't get me started on what age is appropriate for what drugs, etc. I've been to germany, and witnessed a 12 y/o kid drinking beer with his family outdoors by this lake for lunch, as it's perfectly ok to do. There's something about this culture that I can't put my finger on where things all too often go terribly wrong when alcohol is involved.
Same thing in Italy where a 2 y/o can buy wine from a shop no problem so long as they can speak, as I'm told there are no liquor laws there.
4) Girl is kinda good looking. 7/10 if I rewind back my years to my high school days. What a shame.
:P
/zips flame suit for #3.

[/quote] OK. Now, I want you to imagine something. One day, the police come to your door, telling you that one of your siblings was attacked and -blam!-ly assaulted like the girl in the OP. The assailant pulled a gun on him, and forced him to obey. Now, how much blame are you planning on placing your sibling or on whoever was in charge of your sibling? He/she was in a situation where he was helpless (like the girl in the OP), and they were assaulted (also like the girl in the OP). He chose to go outside, therefore exposing himself to strangers. You suffer from what is called "illusion of control", where you feel like the difference between being assaulted and being fine is a matter of "personal responsibility". [/quote]You mean... a relevant analogy?! NO WAY![/quote] Not at all! You all and people here just love giving situations where only 1 side has any amount of control in the situation. Guns? Knives? That's not what went down here. Bottom line is, the girl could have made better decisions to prevent her -blam!-. You two are rallying behind scenarios such as if little boy were to walk out his front door and get caught by a stray bullet to his throat, that it's not his fault, which it isn't. You make it sound like I would blame the boy, which I wouldn't. Based on all evidence at hand in this very specific situation, the fact is, if this girl was a better decision maker, this situation wouldn't have happened. When the same can't be said for innocent people caught by stray bullets. Damn typos, using the full Site on this smartphone, [/quote] If you're caught by a stray bullet, you shouldn't have gone outside. And you probably live in a bad area, you shouldn't live there. See, you're trying to say that "if the girl hadn't been drunk, she wouldn't have been raped", which is ridiculous because you can't see the past. Did she make a bad decision? Yeah. If she had gotten alcohol poisoning, then I would agree that that outcome was her fault. But she was assaulted, by someone else who had every chance to not do it. It's the attacker's fault, and entirely his fault, that she was attacked.
