No Sex for Teens...

I meant to comment on this the other day. Amazing. At least they changed the law and it looks like he will get out of prison. Still, he has had to serve two years in prison. So a minor had another minor perform a sex act on him. Minimum sentence of 10 years and the added bonus of having to register as a sex offender. This is what the south is like. We have such a distorted view where sex is concerned. Violence? That can be shown on tv at all hours. A glimpse of a woman's breast? You must be joking. Where are our priorities? And the new law? Consensual sex between minors is now a misdemeanor and punishable by no more than one year in prison. Think about that. Two seventeen year old kids can have consensual sex and end up in prison. So instead of teaching responsibility about sex lets still throw them in prison. How messed up is that? Make anything forbidden to teens and you know they will go out of their way to try it. We are so behind the times. Why can't we just realize that sex is natural and get over it. Teach responsibility and respect for yourself and others and move on. Once we do that all this other bullshit will go by the wayside...

the crazy thing is, they didn't have intercourse with each other. i believe it was oral sex. and i remember something to the effect of, if they did have intercourse, the sentence wouldn't have been that bad.

messed up...

It was oral sex. And I should add the prosecution claimed she was to drunk to know any better so there is the question of if she was coherent enough to make it consensual. Still messed up though...

i was watching an interview with him this morning, and it was kind of funny the way they were showing him in church, and talking about how he know that it was the 'wrong' thing to do, and how he's going to do talks to troubled youth and crap.

listen...your seventeen, and when some chick says 'lets do it' you're going to do it. don't give me that crap that 'it was wrong.' own up to it, and own it. chicking shit.

i just love how they are trying to make him look like and outstanding member of society; which he really isn't to begin with.
