The protesting and hard work of women and men to change the laws regarding rape, alone, has been very hard. It has taken alot of years and very often high judges, men, have blocked attempts to change these laws to protect the women it affects. Question why children are even less protected than animals. Anyone heard of The Man Boy Love movement? They´ve even posted photos online advocating that there is absolutely nothing wrong with this form of love. The photos are of a huge group of men standing side by side with boys. Did the law do anything about this? No! It´s like a private club among other numerous clubs that advocate things that should be against the law. If they are not protected by law enforcement are they protected by the law itself? Something or someone should´ve done something to look up all those in the photos and have a good long talk with each one of them. The things that those in power and in different parts of society do are protected by powers that most of us think belong somewhere else, not in our town or area. It dosen´t happen where we live. People hate to think what such a thing would do to their property values, the qualities of their lives, etc. So, it comes down to who is more valuable, us or them. It´s the same in adoption. Those in the power to allow adoptions cover their butts with the law but who helped write the laws pertaining to such, state and local? States and counties are low on revenue of late. I have noticed that when times get tough peoples´ kids are taken away more. They have to be put through therapy, medical testing, etc. The parents are made to pay. When they can´t, society pays. Anyway you look at it we´re all paying for what our gov´ts want. If we don´t give it to them willingly they will enact legislation to make us pay it. Bills are passed by those in office, not by us! It´s the law that is the problem and the people who write those laws. I hope this helps to educate you to the details.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-46108668354670709052011-11-15T20:56:21.147-05:002011-11-15T20:56:21.147-05:00So, what did the witness say he saw? He said he s...So, what did the witness say he saw? He said he saw this man in the shower with a boy and he was soaping up the boy´s shoulders. According to the law this could be considered gross sexual imposition but maybe not. The law is strange in that it labels each degree of any action, whether it be rape, mollestation, etc. If you really want to know what the media should be reporting on you should educate yourself about the laws pertaining to such things. As a person we think that nothing should stop a person from reporting such a thing to the police. It´s repugnant and repulsive to say the least. Then, we come to proof or evidence. The court has to see something viable that they can examine and test in order to establish innocense or guilt. This is why child mollestation is so hard to prove. Unless the act is violent in nature it may go unproven for years. When enough people come forward having had the same experience that´s different. Given they have not talked to one another prior about said events it might be possible to convince a judge or jury of the events they experienced. The balance of belief is based upon the reputations of those who say they were violated. In the case of children this is very hard to prove on their say so. This is because kids don´t always tell the truth and have been known to tell tall tales. Until they reach the age of 10 I believe it is, they cannot be placed on the stand. Even then, their maturity to give witness testimony is based upon a psychologist´s evaluation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-25478846988460510542011-11-15T20:53:49.617-05:002011-11-15T20:53:49.617-05:00Right now no one´s reporting that Paterno witnesse...Right now no one´s reporting that Paterno witnessed it. He did however, report the incident to his superior(s) and gave them the name of the witness. When you hold such a position with a university or company, you are bound by a contract ``not to disclose anything that might damage the reputation of said establishment.`` If he or the witness would´ve gone to the police it would be seen as a breaking of their contract with the university. They could not only be fired but could´ve been held financially responsible for any and all damages from it on the university and each person that they´d name in it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-68085669023782462372011-11-15T20:50:18.586-05:002011-11-15T20:50:18.586-05:00First quote I learned in high school might be of u...First quote I learned in high school might be of use to anyone reading this piece. It says, ``Ignorance of the law is no excuse.`` That is actually written into the law. Next, lets say someone tells you that they witnessed a crime. You go to the police and you tell them who told you this. Lets say they talk to the witness and they tell the police they didn´t witness anything or worse yet they lied to you. You have in essence just laid the groundwork for being charged with filing a false police report and they prosecute people for this. So, Joe Paterno didn´t have grounds to go to the police.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-72803662114918664872011-11-15T17:08:43.947-05:002011-11-15T17:08:43.947-05:00Hopefully the whole of this grim story will come o...Hopefully the whole of this grim story will come out eventually and justice will be done for the victims of the paedophile involved and all those who supported him, covered for him and condoned his actions.Paedophilia is very often in high places which is how it gets covered, excused and the victims further abused by the neglect to see justice done.Part of Penn may have a culture of abuse, it remains to be seen.Vonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17421069895155350144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-25846094377928896052011-11-15T15:09:34.225-05:002011-11-15T15:09:34.225-05:00Amy, we have the news media who hopefully will do ...Amy, we have the news media who hopefully will do a good job filling in the blanks. You did a great blog and I know that we will learn more eventually. I am sure the lawyer for Sandusky is going to blame the children or declare the coach insane - in any case, this guy deserved prison time for a LONG TIME.Tracehttp://www.splitfeathers.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6969975344623261.post-6395314308693790322011-11-15T14:37:15.464-05:002011-11-15T14:37:15.464-05:00This is one of those things that just blows my min...This is one of those things that just blows my mind.
