I don’t know if HE can make it that long! He’s not looking so healthy! He better live long enough to finish this series!

Burn, Donald.

I feel like George RR Martin refusing to ever finish the series would be an appropriate punishment for us all if America elects Trump. I mean, beyond the punishment of having Trump as a president. If he were somehow to release the books everywhere but the US...heh, yeah, that would show us.

I personally think they should lock rapists up for life. I mean, they made a lifelong impact on their victim. Why shouldn’t they be punished just as long?

“youthful mistakes”

This country (and South Carolina, I’m sure) has many shitty, shitty prisons that should be a really nice place for this guy to cool his heels in for the next few decades. No need to kill him, and locking him in a cage for the duration seems more than poetic justice.

I just think we shouldn’t be so quick to jump on side characters in these sorts of news stories for random quotes. The sheriff guy is the one who helped rescue her and found a ton of bodies. The guy in the headline is the one who murdered a ton of people and abducted this woman. Should we really be jumping on the…

Oh no, they picked up that he was a sex offender - it’s just that sex crimes equate with youthful indirection so often in people’s conscious that they didn’t even question it when he dismissed it as such.

So you think him lying his way thtough the licensing process is okay? Sex offenders who have done their time should absolutely work. I never said they don’t have that right. But it’s pretty clear that this man hasn’t had any real rehabilitation and the fact that he lied about his crime is proof of that.

“According the AP, Carver was shot to death, though it’s unknown how many times.”

They probably assumed he was a well-armed Jason Statham, there to save Americans from themselves.

She was not having a fun morning

I don’t like it when anyone is sexually harassed but part of me is like “Eh, at least they’re being equal, I guess that’s progress?”

Hey, just letting you know that this story has been updated and your rapist apologia was (unsurprisingly) wrong (those of use who read about this story or live in the area knew you were wrong days ago, but you just kept jerking off to your nonsense rape apologia....and it was disgusting to witness.)

that’s not what the report says...we don’t know the nature of the violation, only that it was the ‘1000 foot limit’ rule that was broken

You’re a fucking troll. He was picked up at the fucking high school that he was loitering outside out. His victims were inside the school. HE WENT TO THE FUCKING SCHOOL.

I can’t speak for the whole ‘American system’ other than to say that’s it vastly different in different areas and your description is patently false in many areas and there’s really nothing I can say to convince you of anything if your mindset is already all-prosecutors-are-evil-and-nothing-will-convince-me-otherwise.…

Except there was no ‘coercion.’ And no threat of ‘draconian punishment’ for contesting the charges. There just the possibility of actually getting a some time, which might not have happen or might not. The defendants have their own attorneys and often very good ones. And all of their attorneys knew exactly what I was…

To show that we’re not as safe as we think we may be?
