I guess I mostly don't understand why it would be so hard for someone who didn't have some sort of a problem with women to go easy on her for being angry about her rapists' identities being protected. Especially since (I think) no one here has anything to do with this case, so basically anything any of us have to say on the subject is opinion.

I can understand her being angry, I cannot understand nor will I ever condone law breaking, I just can't, it's not how I'm wired.

Spoiler:

I guess we're gonna have to agree to disagree then. I see law as a creation of humans, subject to the same level of "uh huh huh whoops" that we tend towards. I would ask then, if you feel that the two boys in this scenerio recieved a fair amount of punishment?

In a word, No. The only thing I am guilty of in this scenario is being an idiot.

As to the second comment, some laws need breaking. Yes, I said it. SOME LAWS NEED BREAKING. It's called civil disobedience.

It's also called being a criminal.

Some crimes need to be committed.

And this was one of them? This was such a massive injustice and there where no other options or ways to protest this other than breaking the law?

Cast your mind to last year, Somath. Cast your memory back to the UK riots thread and the point I continually tried to hammer into your head about how people will do drastic shit if they think they're being ignored and the people who are wronging them are basically getting away with their actions. This is the same thing.

Yeah, being sexually assaulted and having pictures of the assault taken and shown to God knows who only for the pieces of shit who did it to get a slap on the wrist is no big deal. Dumb bitch should've kept her mouth shut.

Go fuck yourself.

Oh no! I have been defeated! Oh wait they haven't been sentenced yet at all so your slap on the wrist comment has no grounding what so ever.

Fucking idiot, stop picking and choosing the facts as they suit you and look at the big picture for a change. Just because I think she should be punished for breaking the law does not mean I think it's fair if these fuckers get any less that maximum sentence, nor have I said anything to that effect, now stop being a moron and READ BEFORE POSTING!

I did fucking read, you shit-sucking imbecile. Did you or did you not post this:

Hm?

Cos it reads A LOT like "this wasn't such a big deal" and "she should've kept her mouth shut".

Except they plea-bargained and the victim knows the terms of the plea-bargain AND THAT'S WHY SHE DID THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE. You'd know that if you had read the original post properly instead of barging in here with your fucking nose in the air pontificating about how the law is the law, so she should've agreed to never ever talk about what happened to her. Just admit that you think this girl should be made an example of as a deterrent to all the lying bitches out there who run around ruining good men's names with their rapey lies.

Oh you moron, you absolute fucking moron, you are so convinced that's what I must be anti what ever you stand for that this must be against you. I mean come on, I couldn't have been talking about how there where ways she could have complained about being gagged and how much of an injustice it was without actually naming the guys and breaking the court order could I? I mean is that too much of a stretch to even consider that? That I might not have been going "That stupid bitch, she should have kept her mouth shut!" and instead been going "Why did she have to go and name them, there are much more stuble, and LEGAL, ways she could have protested this"*

Of course not, because you have decided what I mean and I can't possible be talking about anything else, you fucking presumptuous idiot, the all knowing cyberwulf, who is never fucking wrong, except right now, when she, is.

HA!

*Little hint, that's what exactly what I was saying, you fucking moron.

Tell me some.

I keep on trying to type a response to this shit but I get half-way through my post, sigh and then delete it because you're still stuck at this ridiculous "people who are really mad about horrible shit that happens to them should deal with their problems in a completely rational and detached manner" bullshit and it's embarrassing. Not as embarrassing as this sudden "I'm a smug internet warrior" post shtick of yours but nothing's more shameful than that seeing as you cannot do it in an even remotely funny way and I'm serious when I say knock it off it's fucking awful.

edit: ^^^^ yeah, do that as well

"Wonderfully English" my fucking ass. More often than not lately you've been nothing but a blight on the representation of our country on these forums, you troglodyte. I demand that WD40 gets the title instead because he actually embodies those kind of qualities. Mods? Please do me this favour.

Stuble?

Subtle. Are we starting typo wars?

Methinks somebody needs to take Somath's keyboard away when he's drunk. It causes an impeccable foot-in-mouth syndrome.

Well Reid already did the popcorn smiley thing. Lady Anne figured Grammar Nazi was probably the next best way to be utterly useless...

This brought tears of joy to my eyes...

And compliments are the third best way to be useless. But what else can I do? Chips, Shirt, and Wulf are saying everything I want to. Carry on...

Whatever, Somath has probably already marched out of this thread with his nose in the air already...

Welp, I just saw a post on Tumblr that calls to openly advertise the rapists' names. It also published the victim's name, though. I'm not sure how to feel about that.

Is it at all possible that the judge asked for no one to speak about the case in order to protect the identity of the victim as well as the perpetrators?

Isn't the victim's name already known?

So, what does it matter if whatever a Tumblr announces it?
