As if the story about Brooke Bennett wasn't sickening enough, we have idiot writers pulling this shit:

The 14-year-old said she herself had been having sex with Jacques since she was 9, as part of the sex ring.

How goddamned hard is it to write "The 14-year-old said Jacques had been raping her since she was 9"?

We've got assholes who need to be shot in the head assaulting little girls and kidnapping them so that other assholes can have a crack at them, too, and altering their MySpaces so that mysterious 'internet strangers' can be blamed and people in the media who should know better enabling them because oh, an adult male is 'having sex' with a nine-year-old! Rape? Nah, of course not! We all know that doesn't exist. It's always a case of the slut asking for it, or the bitch lying, or the little Lolita tempting the poor guy! How was he supposed to help himself? Boys will be boys, after all!

I swear to god I am going to end up beating these jackasses to death with a copy of the dictionary.


ETA: Oh look! The latest headline! "Death penalty possible in Vermont sex-kidnap". KILL.

Yeah, but there's been a case recently where a rape victim was told by the judge not to use the word 'rape' in court, because that might bias the jury against the defendant, which I think is unadulterated bullshit. If it's against your consent, it's rape.

And in this case, the girl was nine. She couldn't legally give consent even if she wanted to (which I veryvery much doubt) which automatically makes it rape.

(and I'm not growling at you or anything, just growling in general)

I agree with you in any case, I'm just trying to explain why I think they did it that way.
