"the schoolground bully"

Teachers who have sex with their JHS students don't do it because the kid "showed interest." They pick a kid and groom them until they "show interest."

I can't remember who said it, but someone pointed out that one of the many reasons sex with minors is illegal is even if they act like 'nascent Sharon Stones', they don't have the slightest idea what it means.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't think a 14 year old should go to jail for killing someone.

Thank you for articulating why his/her comment was ridiculous in such a marvelous and factual way.

Teens of 14 can't LEGALLY consent. That's not a "stupid myth". No one is saying that kids don't have sexual feelings.

Let us know when you join the rest of us in the real world. You can start by reading up on age of consent laws and in loco parentis, which make your pathetic sophomoric prose irrelevant.

You are oversimplifying things in a way that is distorting what happened here. Can I ask why you ignore the fact that she was a student in your "independent actor" analysis? 14 year olds are required by law to go to school. First, being in this environment in and of itself is not a choice of this girl and that is…

Eww. Just eww. As a JHS teacher, allow me to be very clear: if a student shows any kind of inappropriate interest (and sometimes they do), YOU BE THE ADULT. You tell them it is not appropriate. You arrange for the two of you to never be alone in the same space. You let your department head/supervisor/administrators…

You...you know that response makes zero sense, right?

Ok, so it wasn't just me then. For a second I thought I had a ministroke...

Is it worth asking why someone like Norquist is a fan of hers? I don't know I look at that as a good thing exactly.

Gotham's idea of subtlety is to scream: "DO YOU GET IT?"

I don't think this show winks at the audience at all. It swings a giant sledgehammer and tries to crack you on the top of your head.

Sorry but I disagree. America's culture is one that affects certain people differently. Poc and people who have grown up poor here in America often face struggle If you haven't it is fraudulent as fuck to act like you have any understanding of what that means if you do not.

No.

The only thing the show had that I liked personally was some cool gadgets. I stopped watching after the third episode just because I still didn't care about any of the characters. In 3 episodes if you're still failing to endear not even one character to your audience then you have a serious writing problem. Sucks for…

Halle Berry needs a new agent. She's had terrible roles in every movie since Catwoman. I hope she isn't picking these movies based on her gut, how cute or spiritual she thinks they are or whatever else. She should be a top star in Hollywood. She's a decent actress and she's hot. Instead, she's in crap like Cloud…

I made it through 3 episodes before a part of my brain I didn't realize existed said no more.
