PING
Our legal system is so messed up, particularly with regards to children and minors. It is used by the guilty to persecute the innocent, with the full complicity of the judges.
Liberal logic at its finest.
Prayers to you and your family!

She lived up to her principles.
As a former JAG officer, I can attest the military does not take rape seriously. if you are not beaten within an inch of your life you weren’t’ raped or you are gay for complaining about it. (Like being gay negates the rape.)
Yes, her enemy was always there, you just didn’t know it.
Be vigilant.
I am so impressed with the amount of strength displayed by this family. May God continue to give them strength.
“Our legal system is so messed up”.....
While I agree with that statement, the “Uniform Code of Military Justice” is almost worse.
Liberal logic at its finest.
Yes, lets compound the tragic and criminal conduct by killing the innocent result, who wouldn’t be able to voice an opinion. Ask the question after twenty years of life and see what the answer to the question might then be.
I totally agree with their decisions and in keeping the baby, abortion is always wrong. Let god decide if the baby lives or dies.
However, and I have three daughters and serve in the DoD so I think of this constantly, how did the 18 year old soldier get private access to the 14 year old girl?
I never leave my children, at any age, without adult supervision which I have vetted. Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, basketball camp, church camp, Teen Extreme night at the bowling alley, etc. If I or my spouse cannot personally serve as a chaperone, or I really know the people who are serving as chaperones, then the whole thing is a No Go. I get grief from my kids, but stories like this reinforce my reasoning.
Story told of a woman complaining to Napoleon about being
raped by one of his officers
He called for his sword. Gave it to the woman and held the
sheath
Told her to try to sheath the sword. While she tried he would
move the sheath preventing her from sheathing the sword......
Here's some additional media coverage from out-of-town media elsewhere in Missouri: http://www.columbiatribune.com/news/local/case-turns-on-statutory-gap/article_3e8eb96c-d779-11e2-92df-10604b9f6eda.html
Your logic is flawed. It works both ways. Why punish a rape victim with forced pregnancy, pregnancy she didn’t ask for and likely cannot financially support.
Support the male pill if you don’t like abortion. The male pill will reduce abortion almost completely. It will almost eliminate single motherhood, cash flow sex and financial extortion, and reduce welfare. Imagine the loss of power of progressive politicians without abortion as a rally cry. There is already a push to get the plant the pill is based on imported into the US before manginas, feiminists, politicians, and pharma lobbiests have it banned. Men’s rights groups are already having the seeds sent to members in western nations. This one pill will create a social revolution and put a knife in the heart of progressivism.
FYI, Mark Prugh is a member of the Pulaski County Democratic Central Committee and chairman of the Pulaski County Democratic Club. He's also a retired Army JAG officer and a West Point graduate who started his career in the infantry before deciding to go to law school.
I get the point that even the worst criminals deserve the right to an attorney. As conservatives we need to follow the Constitution and the right to an attorney is settled law. Mark knows his stuff, and as a retired JAG officer who has done serious hard-core stuff before transferring to JAG, he knows how to put on a good defense for his clients in a court-martial. Under the American system of justice, we need to respect the verdict of the military court to acquit this soldier via a 3-3 split jury decision.
That means the legal issue is settled. But cases like this can hurt lawyers later on when they run for office and have to explain why they defended certain types of clients. This is going into my files for possible future reference.
A woman who is about to be raped should first check that her rapist is on the male pill?
An airline pilot made the most astounding statement .. and it has never left me.
We were in the midst of a terrible storm .. clouds so dark .. up/down drafts .. it was very frightening.
I was calm and just prayed .. I was convinced God did not supply me with airline tickets just to have the plane crash.
As we were landing in Oklahoma City (and were finally out of the storm) the pilot made this dramatic statement - “My apologizes for the rough flight, he said, this storm came up out of nowhere. We didn’t even see it coming.”
If we always keep in mind; “... the devil comes to steal, kill and destroy, but I have come that you might have life and that abundantly.”
Sometimes the storms of life are not on our timetable .. they just seem to come out of nowhere .. but the true test is how we handle the storm.
