Land of the free home of the depraved.

Whoever thought of this law or whatever went full retard, assuming this is true. 

You never go full retard. 

[Decepticon Leader Sully]

Its true apparently. there thinking was if MEN behave they won't Rape. 

Despite violent crime still being on the steady decline since 1998. and most of it being against men.

Still what are facts and figures huh. like Stuart Lee joked You can prove anything with Facts.

Good!  

About time!  

[Billy-the-Squid]

Ok i can't post links sorry but this is real. stupid but real.

 

the American Law Institute is promoting passing laws stateing that ANY physical contact from hand holding to bumping in to another person with out concent can be classed as a Sexual assault. and no not on a collage campus this is a proposed law.

 

Lol, stupid academics. The Criminal Courts will be so backed up the litigation weight will be accounted for in decades.

[Rorschachinstein]

So radical leftists are using the state as their own personal muscle. What else is new. When the revolution comes, they'll be the first to go.

[Voxr]

I don't want to go to jail though. I just bought Park Ave. 

[Rorschachinstein]

I side with some leftist causes, but I still want to see this. This is getting out of hand.

 

 

At least I live in Texas..... Guess who the winning side will be.

 

I'm a classic liberal, so I'm a bit worried myself. But history repeates time and time again. The armed forces, and law enforcement sects of government are usually made up the lower social classes. The class that these academics are dragging through the mud. Happened in Russia. Cambodia. France. It's always the same. Your books won't protect you from an angry Tyrone and Cletus, skin color and gender be damned.

Puritanism.

Discussion paper =/= proposal. Early draft =/= current discussion paper.

 

As far as I could make out most of the focus of the discussion paper is on acts which most people would consider to be in the normal definitions of sexual assault, requiring use of a sexual organ. The sexual contact discussion seems to have been reserved and put aside, keep in mind that sexual assault definitions would include conduct where the victim is a minor, where most people would see any sexual contact as being inappropriate.

Glad I'm not American then.

Because they are discussing the issues of law and sexual assault?

Man I don't know how many times I've brushed my hand against someone's ass accidentally.

 

It's embarrassing enough without getting the cops to break my knees.

 

But that's me being silly.

 

I know the OP is being liberal with his words.

 

I bet it ain't too that extent.

 

So yeah, screw butt-holes who slaps some chick's ass just to get a finger wagging.

 

Fine that dude.

 

And vice versa.

 

As in that chick too.

 

Hopefully it won't go to that extent. But I don't see any law getting passed that goes to those extremes. Tumblr's sadist-left effect on society is way overblown by some peeps.

 

Always gotta find that middle ground, y'know.

So I made a mistake here. Even tho I was right in trying to remind people that what's at issue is a discussion paper, the discussion paper i was skimming was actually an earlier draft. The current draft, discussed in the letter referred to here (*) is not available to the general public.  * http://www.cotwa.inf...al-body-in.html

 

However, there is another wrinkle here. The lawyers and professors in the letter criticizing the discussion paper suggest that its concerns about sexual contact less than actual sexual assault can be addressed in tort law or in another area of discussion carried on by the ALI. To me this amounts to an admission that there needs to be some legislation addressing this issue. At the same time, depending how court access re intentional torts is dealt with in the US,  this may mean that remedies may only be available to those victims who can afford the private legal costs -- which may be one of the reasons the discussion paper in question (apparently) pushed for a criminal law approach.

So I can be arrested for Assault and Battery and Sexual Assault at the same time?

 

What's next, do I have to walk around with a blindfold because I might sexually assault a woman by looking at her?

Actually some feminists have coined a term for that "Stare Rape" 

 

By looking at a woman for too long you are raping her

Staring is creepy AF for sure. And annoying.

Seems like people need a reality check if they're gonna consider it rape though.

[AventuroLegendary]

Finally. 

 

If it gets those "free hugs" freaks out of society, more power to it.
