Obama Education Czar: failed to report homosexual statutory rape

grasping straws?

can you site the law which states he has committed this crime?

 

FACT: the boy as 16 at the time. he's was of legal age so no crime whatsover.

LIE: the editorial said he was 15 at the time. It's pretty much the only basis the editorial stood on. We won't even be discussing this if the editorial accurately said that the boy was 15.

 

No, this is a waste of time driven by people whose only agenda is anti-Obama. Given the new facts (boy was of legal age of consent, etc.), there is even less to this than I believed before.

I have all the answers I need. The boy was of age and could have done whatever he wanted with whoever he wanted and Jennings wouldn't have been obligated to tell anyone at all even if he had first hand knowledge of the sexual acts.

We do know, there was no law broken and Jennings had no obligation to tell anyone. Why is this an issue?

Nope, there was no law broken and that is definitive.

Whatever.

We don't know that he didn't say that. The only people who know that for sure are Jennings and the boy, who is just as upset that this is an issue as Jennings is. The conversation was between a school official and a boy who was of the age of consent. Whatever was said remains between them, but I am thrilled that one of the things he remembered telling the boy was about using protection. We need MORE, not fewer, people telling kids to use protection.

No law was broken, why should there be an inquiry?

We are treating it like it is, a steaming pile of mud being slung by a bigot.

Jennings admits that he would do things differently now, and the mistake was so minor IMO that there is no reason to bother with the questions.

Send the congrats to the author of this execrable editorial, he is the biggest bigot I have seen in quite a while.

ASSO, I tried searching it here but no luck. Can you at least give me which chapter and section it is? TIA

 

so where is it? should be archived somewhere on the internet unless you are just making it up

 

Basso, I appreciate your deep and thoughtful posts on this page regarding homo. stat. rape and the failure to report such a transgression.

 

So, no source.

 

It is silly to call a mistake a lie. Shall I call you a LIAR since you inadvertently re-asserted that the boy is 15?

I don't know where you went to school but every school I ever attended had a set of behavioral expectations whereby I could transgress in their eyes and still be within the law-- within my "rights" so to speak.

 

Of course it is interesting that you held the same position when it was generally considered that the boy was underage.

As I pointed out to vlaurello, schools tend to have a set of rules that are well within the bounds of state statutes. This means that you can violate a school rule and yet not violate a state statute. Pro sports teams operate the same way; players get suspended for violating "team rules."

Even if Brewster broke no laws, it is unclear if Jennings discharged his duties well. In my mind, based on what we have learned, he did not-- mainly due to youth and inexperience. I wouldn't go so far as to say that it should cost him an appointment but it certainly merits a discussion given his charge to make schools safe...

 

Not interesting at all. There was no citation of a broken law or policy then and now that it has come out that the boy was of age, there is absolutely zero to this story.

If it was against any school rules (the policies I have mentioned in previous posts), please cite them.

It doesn't warrant any discussion at all because there is no merit whatsoever to the accusations being made.

 

Without reference to a specific rule Jennings violated, this is based on nothing. Anyway, the boy was of age; it really doesn't seem to me like a school employee's responsibility to report relationships between consenting people who are of age.

 

so where did they base he was 15? Did they at least ask the boy or check any of his records?

where did I reassert that the boy is 15? link or quote?

 

I'm pretty sure the right wing crazies have gone to the school to inquire about this but obviously theres nothing and it's all speculation on your part at this point..

again, what are his duties? his duties to prevent? relationships between legal at age of consent male and an older male?
