Rape has been a crime that was punishable by death since the earliest day of western society. That's enough for me.
i would be really worried if there was cannibals in my city...
I now feel that the term "perverse incentives" has been overused, and no longer holds the crucial meaning I intend it to impart in this particular case.
I think its good to know things
@Undead Mockingbird it's not quite that simple though
@Undead Mockingbird because differential enforcement is kinda the problem
I would agree that modern western countries tend to fairly punish rapists
Well, differential enforcement is a problem for every crime under the sun.
We treat rape differently, though, because our primary concern is how it relates to WOMEN.
seems like fit time to jew fact.
Because it's a crime that is seen to particularly affect women, we treat it differently.
but in the west, the nominal penalties for rape were not the ones that were applied to _some certain persons_
We are even willing to throw due process over board, which we would not even do for MURDER. So where is our concern for not enough people being convicted for murder?
Are we running around every day talking about how OJ Simpson should have been convicted and how due process lets too many people off the hook for murder?
OJ would disagree with that assessment
I'm just saying that it is more understandable when some people in India complain, however incorrectly, that due process should be circumvented.
not that it should be done, but that it is contextually more understandable
since due process fails more rape victims in India than it does in the western world, by and large
No, we instead prosecute men, as young as teens, for something as sexting or drunken hookups. It is completely out of proportion and it has absolutely no equivalence among other crimes. And why? Because it affects the WHAMMENS.
same as all these accusations
Well, too bad Brian Banks didn't have the same luck.
Well, shit's gone really anal retentive
precisely *because* we take this shit as seriously as possible.
Hmm. Maybe. I'll take a break from arguing. I need to get some cake.
get some cake in you
drink a coffee
brb
Woah, woah. He can have the cake. Not the coffee
why do you not want the best for our little boy?
He wants the coffee, let him have the coffee, martha.
Its double uppers, sugar and cafeine
That's the _point_, **_MAARTHA_**
