If he could move fast enough to be “chased,” he wasn’t hit hard enough, or often enough.

The only indication would be the charge of AB on a “child”.

Being naked, there could be no identifying the criminal as a "child." Doesn't matter anyway; he was in the house, and thus was a domestic invader, subject to deadly force.

Well, you have to know Raoul. He was the “DC Chapter Leader” who repeatedly carried a sign at their events that said something to the effect “If Osama was a piece of ass, Clinton would have hit him”.

In life there is sonething called judgement and something called “a place and time”. No matter how funny one thinks his gutter level spoutings may be, one has to wonder whether posting them on FR (where many woman including our wives and daughters peruse) or carrying them on signs at an “official” FR gathering is the proper place and one has to consider the judgement of he/she who does so.

That he is still a DC Chapter “leader” and that some still consider him an appropriate figure head/representative for any FR endeavor causes one to wonder about the sanity of those making such decisions.

Loose cannons are loose cannons, no matter their perceived contributions. Best to keep them in the back where they can’t be seen clearly.

I’m thinking any jury is going to let him off under the unwritten “he needed a beating” rule.

I see no mention of a mom ... oh wait

For once a story about a wayward child includes a dad, but he is apparently so disconnected that this is going on for a year before he wises up.

My coworkers are concerned that my kids can’t possibly have normal teenage years because of how wayward I was and am naturally suspicious (you know - lips moving = lying). Daughter ain’t having sex in my house for a year without me catching on (he said hopefully).

So a 15 year old boy has (or is preparing to have) sex with a 15 year old girl and it is rape and sexual assault? Do we get to charge her with all of these things as well?

I'm glad I don't have daughters.

And you hope some girl's father doesn't whack one of your sons with a pipe? (That is, if you have a son(s) of the dating age!)

...I just copied the application.

Let's see. Where's the best place to file it?

Useless Information? Humor?

The application guarantees daughter will leave parents' home as soon as she can pay her own way.

The opinions of people with obviously high IQs deserve to be heard.

Do we get to charge her...

C'mon! Not too long ago, girls were blamed for any premarital activity. Guys? Well, that's the way they are! The sexual revolution changed all that; females demanded the same rights.

IMO they are both wrong. Aside from the simply amoral types, young men should be as wary as their girlfriends that a pregnancy could come of their actions.

Both will pay a very heavy price and so will their parents.

Don't think the Dad in this account excuses his daughter, but he took his anger out on the boy. Right or wrong, most parents stand by their child.

A lot has to do with how a kid is brought up, but even the best kids get into trouble. My son is six. Were instilling strong virtues in him, as long as he is living at home there will be rules, after that we hope and pray that he exercises better judgment than this kid. It's all a parent can do.

You of course realize that the “perp” in this case is the father. Not the kid. I can’t really tell by the photo what his intentions were.

No, I don’t. Is there more to add to this story?

I’m saying any photo of someone being booked is of the father. The kid was not taken in.

And that photo doesn’t look like any 15 year old I’ve ever seen.

OK, I see my mistake now. Thanks for pointing that out.

I thought you were defending the kid. LOL

And what's you're problem? I merely said the opinions of people with obviously high IQs deserve to be heard.

If someone posted that to me, I'd see it as a compliment.
