If only UK’s athletic director or president had covered this up and molested the players, the NCAA would let them off with a sternly worded letter.

Striegler also told the Times that he hoped his crimes would “continue to fade in the past.”

That’s just an excuse he pulled out of his ass because he thought it would make him look less shitty. He just likes ‘em young.

I can’t believe Shane Black thought Predator, of all movies, was the right movie to put this guy in.

The sad thing is, I was such a scared, lost kid with ZERO self esteem that this very thing did seem like high praise to me at the time, that I was only worthwhile or beautiful or smart if men (particularly much older men online) thought I was fuckable. It makes me sick now, how isolated I was and the things I was…

How is it that men can honestly think telling a minor (a minor relative, at that) that he wants to have sex with her is nothing but an ego boost or mentoring or whatever garbage they manage to roll around in? 

Well, and they’re all men. 

I think it’s confusing b/c the OP is referring more to “the court of public opinion” which I think is, yeah, more biased in favor of rich & famous than race necessarily. Weinstein and Brock Turner immediately come to mind as well as big instances of NOT being given a second chance, and they are white.

White privilege and scond chances? Hm, does the name Anthony Anderson ring a bell? Or Russell Simmons, or Nelly, or Chris Brown, O.J. Simpson anyone? How many second chances to continue to rape for Bill Cosby? It’s almost as if rich, powerful people of any race have a distinct advantage over less rich and powerful…

The history of the NCAA screwing over college students for piddly stuff while turning a blind eye to the big stuff is everlong.

> But it seems to me that virtually any ignorance about the felony sex crimes committed by your friend of five years is willful ignorance.

Well, I guess I’ll be waiting for people to get more mad at Olivia Munn for being a fake nerd girl who is ruining their precious movie franchise, than a dude doing the “Hey, but we’re bros! He’s a bro! It’ll be OK, if I make an executive decision to put my sexual predator bro in my move Predator. It’s meta, bro.”

What a hero Striegler is, helping boost the confidence of his young female relative by telling her he wants to have sex with her. Truly the sort of support all young folk need!

My mother taught me to never judge a book by it’s cover, but damn does this dude look like a creep.

Boy. I don’t remember who it was, but someone recently wrote that if you want to know more about what white privilege is and how it operates, just look at who gets second chances. It’s hard to see a starker example than this! You wanna help out friends when they struggle to get their career off the ground, have a…

This is why I’m still angry at all the people who *just couldn’t!* bring themselves to vote. Elections. Fucking. Have. Consequences.

Oh, I bet that AG Paxton knows full well. Propaganda trumps (pun intended) facts.

Paxton said in a written statement, as reported by the Dallas Morning News. “My office will continue to fight to uphold the law, which requires the dignified treatment of fetal remains, rather than allow health care facilities to dispose of the remains in sewers or landfills.”

Obama’s biggest failure was not pushing through more judges. 

The funny part of that statement is that Ben Sasse is himself a member of Congress. What is he doing to fix the dysfunction?
