Am I wrong about any of this?

Why are men being allowed to invade women's sports and women's spaces? Why did our VP encourage people to donate to a fund which bailed out serial rapists? Why does the left refuse to support mandatory minimum sentencing for convicted rapists -- or at least for multiple-convicted rapists?

These don't sound like policies which seek to protect women.

You guys do support abortion at 8 1/2 months for any reason, though, so I guess there's that.

---

The law and order party...

"Judge Robert Adrian of Adam county, Illinois, said Drew Clinton, who was convicted last October for raping a 16-year-old girl at a graduation party last May, had received “plenty of punishment”.

“Mr Clinton has served almost five months in the county jail,” Adrian said on 3 January, according to court transcripts. “For what happened in this case, that is plenty of punishment. That would be a just sentence.”

In Illinois, a person convicted of rape is handed the mandatory minimum sentence of four years in prison."

...this mandatory minimum stuff seems foolproof with team retard in charge.

Also really can't go wrong with anti-science something something OPINION piece written by an athletes lawyer. That particular Christian law firm that has fought against such pressing issues as decriminalizing homosexuality.

When i'm looking for legal presentation the first place i look for is the SPLC designated hate group list...

"Founded by some 30 leaders of the Christian Right, the Alliance Defending Freedom is a legal advocacy and training group that has supported the recriminalization of sexual acts between consenting LGBTQ adults in the U.S. and criminalization abroad; has defended state-sanctioned sterilization of trans people abroad; has contended that LGBTQ people are more likely to engage in pedophilia; and claims that a “homosexual agenda” will destroy Christianity and society. ADF also works to develop “religious liberty” legislation and case law that will allow the denial of goods and services to LGBTQ people on the basis of religion. Since the election of President Trump, ADF has become one of the most influential groups informing the administration’s attack on LGBTQ rights."

...all the best people.

If this is some kinda shot about the non prosecution agreement Alexander Acosta struck in 2008 with the Epstein crew and then Trump rewarding Acosta with the Secretary of Labor gig ….

Well, I want you to know there will be consequences. Actually, that’s the joke. There are no consequences.

Hopefully a female swimmer files a police report on this pervert.

If this female reverts back to male after college, would anyone be surprised.

What I find interesting is the news media is silent on a couple well known female Olympian swimmers whove voiced their displeasure at the antics of the NCAA and allowing this to go on.. One of those being Katie Ledecky whos own records have been threatened by this transgendered individual.. Also Michael Phelps tried to be as diplomatic himself as he could but he basically walked up to the line without coming across as transphobic and risk being cancelled by the assholes on the left.

Oh and yes several female swimmers on the Penn Team have literally let it be known off the record they think this is bullshyt and shouldnt be allowed. Its a blatant abuse and attack on Title IX and the equality for womens sports it was supposed to bring. Biological factors matter.. Supressing Testosterone to meet an arbitrary lab number is a joke when muscle mass itself as well as bone density and other hard factors are taken into consideration for core athletic ability which hasnt changed the inner physical make up of this Lia Thomas individual.

Do we need to rehash the bio males who declared transgender and smashed records and dominated girls HS sports last year again.. https://abcnews.go.com/US/transgende...ry?id=55856294

That's right, Trudeau used those exact words, truckers are domestic terrorists.
When you begin a post try to use facts.

The whole idea behind controlling an unknown infectious disease is to take precautions recommended by the experts, meaning trained scientists who specialize in the matter.

Instead, you prefer to agree with some untrained YouTube blabbermouth who is afraid their fictional rights are being taken away?

Truckers afraid of needles should be their slogan.

Is fifteen minutes for vaccinations considered a burden for the brave and free truckers who's freedoms were ensured by people who sacrificed their life's. Truckers are no better or worse than the next guy.

Except for the rear backups

ftpjesus: We wouldnt care if votes did count equally but when dead people are voting etc etc etc.. BTW tens of thousands showed up for a Trump Rally in TX.


i said it once already ill say it again; if trump runs he will win. he pulls crowds, hes saying everything his base wants to hear, and bidens going to look senile and narcoleptic in equal parts on stage next to him at the debates.

ive seen no statistics indicating any significant election fraud took place from anyone whose career ambitions dont peak at freebasing in a gas station bathroom with a schizophrenic pillow magnate.

i was referring entirely to gerrymandering and the electoral college. no democracy can exist with those two institutions in place and i believe very soon, shortly after softbank bails out the dollar by purchasing our national parks and farmlands to be exact, we will see exactly how deeply they rotted this government out from the inside.

Is Judge Robert Adrian a Republican?

I haven't looked it up, but I doubt it. In the two high profile "judge lets white privileged rapist off easy" cases over the last few years, both judges were lifelong Democrats.

Either way, I'm not even sure what point you're making. So because some renegade judge broke the mandatory minimum rule, we should just not have them?

You're not going to do very well if you're tring to argue that Democrats want the tougher penalties for rapists.

Just an example of an elected republican judge giving zero fucks about mandatory minimums and "ruling" that 5 months in jail sounds about right for raping a 16 year old.

Classic right wing solution to a complex problem with infinite holes. The entire policy is written on a napkin and that's all they need to solve everything. Who doesn't want to house a quarter of all the worlds inmates. Let's just pretend there is no such thing as plea bargains and hand over more power to prosecutors. It's not like there's any need for balance of power. Clearly it's more important for team retard to be outraged about something.

Mildly amusing that the OP was orchestrated by corrupt religious fanatics that have done their best to limit rights/freedoms "other" Americans with the least democratic way they could come up with, in the courts. Their first president was Meese commission chairman. Commission that was put to rest because following the 1st Amendment was just too hard.

I don't understand your angle either, Gimmick. What does a single judge releasing a rapist have to do with trans women dominating women's sports and a person's feelings about the fairness or unfairness of that? Nobody even mentioned this case or related it in any way and for sure nobody in the thread came to the defense of the judge or the rapist.

It's all rapists and they hope you will buy it. All the while they rape anything and anyone where profit is concerned. Same with drugs, three strikes you're out etc. It's fear mongering and it's meant to redirect the blame to all but them. It's as as old as the hills. Organized religion kicked it off with eternal damnation. Now it's a heavy sentence for those with little or no prospects.

You're just what they want. A self obsessed money grubbing fool

There is no such thing as a perfect solution to crime and punishment. All solutions have potential flaws and holes, but you should seek the solution which is best for society.

Republicans try to find ways to keep rapists and other violent criminals locked up for longer. Democrats try to find a way to keep letting them out, and give them second, third, fourth, and fifth chances. This is very consistent. It is rare to find a soft-on-crime Republican. At best you have a few law-and-order liberals, but there aren't many anymore.

I don't care who "orchestrated" the lawsuit to get trans women out of girls high school sports. The point being raised is correct -- that it's blatantly unfair to girls, and is ruining girls/women's sports. Unfortunately Team Feelings has been hijacked by the crazies who are always looking for their next victim group to pretend to care about, so the result is a "solution" which actually creates oppression of a group the left previously tried to help. If you want to talk about male privilege, it's hard to find a more blatant case of it than men being able to play women's sports.

He didn't break the mandatory minimum rule. He just used one of several ways around it. It's not much of a magic bullet, if people can dodge it.

And here...

"Illinois Eighth Judicial Circuit Court"

"(D): Christopher G. Scholz and (R): Robert Adrian competed in the general election.[11] Mark A. Schuering left office."

"Robert Adrian won with 56.65% of the vote.[2][7]"

...still doubt it.

https://ballotpedia.org/Illinois_jud...lections,_2010

That case was less than a month ago. I wonder why that story didn't get through your bubble.

And while we're at it...

"After announcing his ruling, Adrian made the following comments:

“This is what's happened when parents do not exercise their parental responsibilities, when we have people, adults, having parties for teenagers, and they allow coeds and female people to swim in their underwear in their swimming pool. And, no, underwear is not the same as swimming suits. It's just – they allow 16-year-olds to bring liquor to a party. They provide liquor to underage people, and you wonder how these things happen. Well, that's how these things happen. The Court is totally disgusted with that whole thing."

...what a fine specimen.

Do you think its possible we have more people in jail than any other country because we have more criminals? Not that there aren't real tragedies in our justice system, there are, but there are also a lot of rambunctious deviants here who belong in jail. Terrible crime happens here every day. People here consume a lot of drugs and do unpredictable things. I don't know about the rest of the world, I'm sure bad things happen everywhere but here in the US it seems horrific crimes happen with more and more regularity. The country has been at war for the most part of everyone's life who lives here now. Most of us don't know the real cost of always being at war but we don't know how to have peace either. In what other country has there been war for the entirety of a person's life?

I can see why you would think it's strange to make several completely unrelated partisan talking points, but that just how Druff likes to approach every subject. I believe he thinks he gets extra points for 1000 word essays that are pointless drivel. Probably something to do with talk radio or random Facebook groups he thinks everyone spends time in.

It is tough for people who live in low-crime countries to picture what it's like in the US, and that a very high percentage of people in prison deserve to be there.

Listen to this. I've been through detox three times and there was one constant. People from AA or NA would show up each and every night.
No pay involved and it was clearly difficult for some to relay their dead end stories. They were there in hopes others would not suffer as they had. Given a second or third chance these people had overcome the need to bury their sordid pasts with drugs etc. and became a positive part of the community. Nearly every one who spoke grew up in some very sad conditions when second chances did not exist
People are not born rapists

I've heard outrageous stories and yet these "low lives" were offered help. They feel the need repay that help and are probably the better part of their communities

This is nice of you to say, Les. Being from the kindest place in North America and all. I imagine you've been one of those folks who've shown up for others when you've been yourself
