6 months for rape?

[MissMillie]

In what universe is 180 days of jail time an appropriate sentence for the rape of a child?

2. WOOOOOOWWWWWW!?!

Before I read it I thought for sure it had to be a statutory rape case (given the 180 days), but it's quite clear this was out and out forced rape of a 14 year old by a 19 year old.

This is freaking unbelievable.

The judge doesn't want to ruin the young man's life

6. I have had the pleasure of working with a good christian man - a minister even.

We were talking about DeVos' rollback of college rape guidelines and his comment about "not ruining a young man's life" over an accusation caused me to ask - if one of your daughters were raped in college, how would you feel?

He responded - I'd want to know what role she played in it.

I commented that I should never be invited over for Thanksgiving dinner.

8. The role of victim.

These nuts don’t even care about their own children.

11. Next question: So exactly how many women have you raped reverend?

I'm sure they had it coming and all that but out of curiosity, ball park number, you know?
