Good stuff. 

Yeah, I think any decent parent would have serious concerns there. I’m not sure how any parent could brush that off. It’s such an odd and shocking thing. 

That makes more sense. In California, one can report these things (even anonymously) to a hotline. Believe me, they all get investigated. 

There’s also a weird domestic violence dynamic sometimes. The woman, who is often physically and mentally abused by the man, will outright defend his actions, despite having concrete evidence of the contrary.  These are the cases that force me to contain my rage.  It is exceedingly frustrating and tragic. 

Let me also add this: These child advocacy centers are amazing. I have watched sever forensic interviews and the counselors are incredible. It’s difficult to explain, but children seemingly feel comfortable and trusting with these people. Gentle.  And it is usually funded by taxes, so everyone should have no…

Some ignore it. They’ve think, “So and so would never do something like that” or chalk it up to an overactive imagination.  Some of these parents were victimized themselves.  It’s brutal. 

I’ve been in law enforcement for 20 years...never heard the term hotlining. It sounds like what we call a pretext phone call in California. Law enforcement legally records the phone call where a victim or another talks to the suspect in hopes of gaining a confession. In many sexual assault cases, it is all we have as…

I’ve worked in law enforcement for 20 years. Sadly, many parents aren’t like you.  For what it is worth, great job. You took action immediately. This isn’t your fault, or hers.  I’m so sorry. 

This is the correct take. Scared out of her mind to the point she called the cops, knowing this could be the outcome. 

I don’t agree completely, but I understand your point. But in this situation, what should the mother have done?

Ok. You don’t call the police. She is afraid because her son is armed and acting in a way that makes her feel threatened. What should she do?  Give me a real world solution.  

Fair point. 

Yes. Blame the police here. Please propose a better solution for this situation. 

I’m sure it was mental illness. Doesn’t change much. 

What was her alternative?

No. They can stretch Deng and renounce Randle. 

Sizzling hot take!!!!

Tell me how this is good basketball. I run the same inbounds play with my junior high school girls team. Embarrassing. 

Brady deserved his punishment. This is much too harsh.

Yeah, right. They will still try to separate the two. He was targeted for shopping for a home, so these rape charges are probably fabricated. Remember, all white people are evil. Kellen is a victim of the system.
