Yes, actually we are. One does not become an adult through magic on your 18th birthday.

A 13 year old is supposed to be smarter the a 5 year old.

I agree. But a 13 year-old has better judgement than a 5 year-old and should know better than to pull a real looking gun on a cop he’s running away from, no?

And he was tough enough to try and pull it out on the cops. Doesn’t matter if you’re 8 or 80 don’t pull anything that looks like a fucking gun on police and not expect the consequences.

The appeal of BB guns is that they look and to an extent work like real guns without being lethal.

Reports are that they were using it to rob people, so they probably removed the orange tip specifically to make it look more real.

To be fair, if the police’s account is true, he was 13 (not 5) and should know better than to pull a toy gun (that looks exactly like a real gun) on the police.

literally all that can be said anymore.

There is literally no reason for anyone to manufacture a BB gun that looks like that.

God damnit.

What the fuck, four students are accused of gang rape sue under Title IX in part because the girl they raped was “very sexually active”? “You’re discriminating against us boys for having fun when she was a slutty slut!” That’s their lawsuit. I don’t have strong enough language to express how I feel about this. Fuck…

Yeah, well eff them in their “logic”.

Rhetorical question. I just can’t even with that statement. Eff those guys.

The idea is that, if she consented to sex in other cases, she is likely to have consented in this case. In court, such evidence is generally barred by “rape shield” laws, though evidence of a relationship with an accused assailant can still be admissible, or evidence going to motive for fabrication (such as, if the…

In their minds, if you say Yes a lot, you always say Yes, even when you say No.

That she probably ~wanted it~ and was making everything up.

We know what that’s about. If you accuse men of rape, you are just a whore who doesn’t want to add to her numbers. Or something.

Exactly. Why would this be an issue? It’s like noting that at the time of robbery, the victim was very wealthy.

This is so incredibly sad. I can’t even imagine how that girl must have felt, or what her mother must be feeling now.

Well, that makes sense, the media do follow him around like puppies. It’s a shame he was incapable of rising to the occasion.
