Anybody else finding themselves sighing frequently, not enjoying things, like ice cream, as much, constantly feeling on the verge of unexpected violent tears? Anyone else get queasy when they turn on the news, cynical when they open their Facebook and wary when strangers start talking in a doctor’s waiting room that…

And I would bet that most of the public in this area is very aware. In the Chicago area, I think it’s hard to find anyone unaware of the effects of heroin under the age of say 70. I was lucky and grew up with educated, fairly wealthy parents, went to a good school, etc. I have lost numerous classmates to heroin…

There’s no consideration for the child’s privacy here. His well-being is clearly secondary to the object lesson he can provide in the eyes of this department.

Not only that but the whole point of this moronic stunt was the show the non-using public about the effects of drug use. A quick google search does just that. Hell, haven’t we all seen the meth mugshot timeline? Also, I don’t need to see what cops see. That’s why I’m not a cop.

It’s worse than that. I think the cops are trying to say “Look at what we deal with every day, aren’t we heroes? Don’t you feel bad for us?” They are using a child’s circumstance to elevate themselves, that is highly cynical.

That’s fucked. Heroin is destroying lives and this is the response? Not advocating good rehab programs, not railing against a rehab industry that exists only to Hoover up government money by keeping people hooked for as long as possible and relapsing as often as possible...nope, let’s just post photos of people at…

Fuck yes. This is the Leader of the Goddamn Free World, and according to 538, this clown is hovering around a ~35% chance of winning this shit. Unreal...

This raises the awfulness to whole new levels. How many more persons and institutions are going to give Trump their imprimatur, and possibly the election, by either treating him like a valid presidential candidate or by colluding with him to lie about stuff that’s actually quite important.

I’m wondering how you came to the decision on drawing on your own personal experience as a reference is in anyway appropriate and sensible on an article about a rape in the first place.

Therefore, the issue of his penis size and relative discomfort it cause in the context of her attack is pointless. She was raped. THAT’S what caused the discomfort.

Well, yes. That wouldn’t be impossible if the sex was consensual to begin with. He claims it to be so because that is central to his defence strategy. And based on the victim’s testimony, the sex wasn’t consensual. Which is why your comment confused me.

Yeah it's really hard when they are resisting and saying no. Makes it a challenge for sure.

Sounds like he doesn’t know what a vagina is.

its incredibly difficult for me to read anything this cretin says without saying it in a caveman voice.

Males. “I always have difficulty when it comes to having sex with girls.” The quotes are just odd.

I would bet serious money that he can’t back that up.

thanks for not saying in his head.

“I find my penis is hard to penetrate females.”

demonstrating for the jury with his hand.
