"I hope you are joking. That’s the most unrealistic thing I’ve ever heard in my life."
@DarknessDeku

Read this article or watch the video and be very very afraid...
http://abcnews.go.com/2020/Story?id=3693516&page=1
done? feel free to move to another country now...(if this still happens when I have kids then I will either home school them or leave this crazy country...god i hope Obama fixes it...)

Some highlights:
Most terrifying part: 4 year olds hugging teachers gets them labeled us sexual predators these days...

Main story: 12 and 13 year olds get sent to jail for 6 days(before bail was allowed) without access to their parents or a lawyer and get strip searched about 6 times(probably cavity searched since those go together) and why?

(easier to read this but more detailed on the abc website)
The school they went to had a slap the butt day, and after someone slaps you on the butt you must slap others and this has been a fun game/tradition in the school for a while before these boys went to the school, a game in which all of the girls that were 'victims' participated in... so these two boys slapped the butts of a few girls...
sarcasm: my god the horror.../sarcasm

->What I mentioned above is the standard treatment, but the district attorney tried to send them both to prison till they were 25 and have them labeled as sexual predators... and though after fighting this for a half a year, the families saved their children, the judge ruled that there was no misconduct and that the district attorney did the right thing in seeking charges that go far beyond what most adult serial rapists get...not to mention murderers...

What is really 'unrealistic' is our belief that justice still happens in this country...
It seems these days unrealistic means that it will not happen to most children though it will happen to a few 'insignificant' thousands(soon to be millions) of them...

P.S. If you read the comments to that story on abc you will notice some parents posting that this happened to their little(under 13) children which will for the rest of their lives be labeled us sexual predators for slapping a girls butt, which while inappropriate doesn't make them the pariah that they will be as long as they live... I mean they will be judged equally to a murdering serial rapist...and be punished worse than most murderers...

Lesson to learn: instead of teaching kids useless words like moma or papa, they should be taught 'i want my lawyer' and 'I plead the fif' though such things as 'teacher x molested me' will bring them the needed leverage when they are tried before a court of their pears(don't count on them being older than 4)

so, I am sorry but it seems your beliefs are the unrealistic ones... surprisingly to me and unfortunately to all...

Jack Wessels: @PHOENIXZERO: Do you really think that would stop him?
Posted 07/09/08 at 12:29am
PHOENIXZERO: Wonder if Jack ever got the memo that attacking a judge, especially the one who presided over your own hearing will only make him look worse.

Shadow Darkman Anti-Thesis of : Dennis you should post that story about JT insulting Judge Tunis. There might be more you could find that Kotaku missed.

lordlundar: Jack should realize that when you call everyone crazy, then the only crazy one is the you.

DarkTetsuya: @GP I just fear for the safety of your fax machine cause you didn't post it :P
Posted 07/08/08 at 06:02pm
PHOENIXZERO: @Krono Yeah, that's probably where it came from. Don't remember if a source was mentioned. Other than it being called a "story" or "study".
Posted 07/08/08 at 06:02pm
PHOENIXZERO: Because I was bored and channel surfing. =(

GRIZZAM PRIME: PHEONIXZERO, Why the hell are you watching CNN's sodomy butt baby(HLN)?
Posted 07/08/08 at 05:53pm
Krono: @PHOENIXZERO: Would that be the AP story about how schools should teach 11+ year old how to avoid abusive datings relationships?
Posted 07/08/08 at 05:34pm
PHOENIXZERO: Oh joy, new subject and they bring out Cooper Lawrence who takes a mention about videogames. It's a segment called "Sex Normal for 11-Year-Olds" having to do more so with mental and physical abuse in "relationships" of 11-14 year olds and not sex. >_<
Posted 07/08/08 at 05:28pm
PHOENIXZERO: Certainly a stupid segment with their "adolescent psychologist" and a game is different than a movie. Two callers, underwhelming. >_>
Posted 07/08/08 at 05:24pm
PHOENIXZERO: CNN has wanted to be Fox Jr since Fox started spanking them in the ratings and Turner was removed from power.
Posted 07/08/08 at 05:11pm
PHOENIXZERO: UGH, they have the CT AG on there... He sounds like Jack.
Posted 07/08/08 at 05:09pm
PHOENIXZERO: >_> You can call in 1-800-TELL-HLN.

PHOENIXZERO: CNN HLN is doing a segment on Beer Pong with their other "morality" blowhard Mike Galanos.

mogbert: I think we can skip that story, we can't cover JT every time he insults someone, we would run out of server space...
Posted 07/08/08 at 03:43pm
gamepolitics: nah, intentionally didn't post that... it's just a publicity grab... I only have so much JT tolerance, save 4 more relevant news
Posted 07/08/08 at 02:57pm
Xlorep DarkHelm: Dennis doesn't post every little tidbit of information about Whacky-Jacky.
Posted 07/08/08 at 02:52pm
DarkTetsuya: freak4all: I just posted that ... but yeah they did
