That was two o'clock in the morning, and I get my date back to her apartment, and the two of us are alone, and we're going pretty good. I have to explain this very delicately, 'cause it's really tentative. As I... as I am an inordinately...passionate...man. Volatile. Sensual. In general a stud. When making love...when making love...in an effort...to prolong...the moment of ecstacy...I think of baseball players. All right, now you know. The two of us are making love violently, she's digging it, I figure I better start thinking of ballplayers quickly. So I figure it's one out, the ninth, the Giants are up. Mays lines a single to right, he takes second on a wild pitch. Now she is digging her nails into my neck. I decided to pinch-hit for McCovey. Alou pops out. Haller singles, Mays holds third. Now I got a first-and-third situation. Two out, the Giants are behind one run. I don't know whether to squeeze or steal. She's been in the shower for ten minutes, already. This is too...I can't tell you anymore, this is too personal. The Giants won
I'm going to suggest another voluntary D & D moratorium that we don't pry into or bring up our own and each others sex lives in D & D.
Yao Ming Kicks Ass, you really should mind your own business!! D&D. Sex. More Sex. And even More Sex. Photos, Please!
Ignoring all the other crap in the thread, this topic blew my mind. 10 years? 10 effin' years? Holy police state! We need constitutional and justice reform. Somewhere along the line we allowed the government to prosecute people based on what they think that we should or should not be doing. If we rebuilt the justice system on how much harm was done or could be done by an act, we would be far ahead - and Andymoon would be content as well. Taking Andymoon's favorite issue for example...another victimless crime that is haphazardly prosecuted in America. I was talking to a couple of friends of mine who happen to be white defense lawyers. I mentioned that when I am the head of NAACP, my first priority would be to legalize pot. They agreed with me completely that the main impact of anti-drug prosecution is the oppression of black people in society. Millions of people smoke pot in America - and are unconcerned about being caught with it. Hell, half the urban white professionals that I know smoke it. Of course the NAACP won't take on this issue because it is part of the power structure that polices and rules America. I know I don't really have a coherent point, but I'm just tired of it.
^ I agree that this seems to be a case of prosecuting without justice. That said I would be somewhat cautious of calling every case involving sex with and between minors a victimless crime. THere is a reason why statuatory rape is considered rape that even though a minor might be consenting there is a question whether they have the maturity to offer informed consent.
Yeah, but if the guy was black and yelled "black power" while he did it, he would have gotten 90 years. Luckily it wasn't a hate crime. If a white guy yells "white power" why committing a crime against a white person - is it a hate crime?
Isn't 17 years old still considered a minor in most cases other than perhaps murder? And if the statute (the old one) is that sex with a 14-15 year old is a misdemeanor, I don't understand why this guy got 10 years.
Because the South is fu*ked up, even though this could possibly have happened anywhere else. Moral, cultural and ethnic absolutism, with no shades of gray, and no political, legal or media community brave enough to question anything; and a populace whose great, great grandparents were hanging and barbecuing blacks on rumors and hearsay. Defacto third world countries, save for 2 1/2 centuries of intervention by "activist judges" and "outside agitators" on the behalf of individual rights. The taping is problematic, though; as every lonely, curious and morally ambiguous teenage boy within a twenty-mile radius would probably have a copy within a week.
I think it sucks that voters are willing to make an example out of these kids through support or inaction, while politicians are peddling these amendments to get themselves noticed and longer terms. I guess these geniuses think it'll be the final solution to enforce a draconian teen abstinence program.
This is ridiculous........the guy should get a "high five" not a jail sentence. If he is out on bail he should move to Canada.......no way he should spend even one minute in jail. In Europe and the rest of the civilized world this is not even an issue for the courts. DD
I'm sure as a black man, and as a minor who repeatedly gives consensual oral sex, you are perfectly suited to this debate. Better yet, it's sheer ****ing brilliance to compare having a pipe kicked up your ass, cigarettes put out on you, your face pounded to a bloody pulp, and bleach poured over you with consensual oral sex. You are so ****ing smart! Of course, you realize that after watching you repeatedly make a complete buffoon of yourself, some of us would prefer if you went back to the wanker AOL forums where your stupidity is rewarded and fart jokes are all the rage. Oh snap, I've been fooled by another of NewYorker's sly and amazingly smart "experiments"! If only I could be as clever as NewYorker. Wait, on second thought, NewYorker is still just a gigiantic idiot whose posts are little more than incoherant and juvenile wastes of space and effort. Carry on. For anyone unfamiliar with the putrid quality of NewYorkers depressed mental capacity, I recommend you read the two above links and marvel at why anyone bothers to reply to him at all. And yes, I realize the irony: but this affront to logical thought deserved one last scathing retort.
