Seriously, if you're sensitive to anything related to SA or you just don't feel like boiling your blood into pudding today, don't follow this.

The US 'justice' system is the single worst-named entity on the planet. It's related to seeking justice about as much as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea cares about its people.

Thanks for sharing this Z. It's victim blaming in legislation, it's indefensible and shows how misogynistic the law and justice system can be. The whole case is outrageous... she was failed by her "friend", everyone in the Snapchat thread, the university, campus police and the DA. I've zero doubt the DA used the drunken consent as an excuse... making a decision based on just one statement and snapchat texts is indefensible. Where were the male's phones? Other witnesses? It's just awful

    It is absolutely maddening, it is. I was ranting half the evening when I read that.

    Honestly I keep getting angry about this. A bunch of straight white men made a law that disproportionately effects women, LGBT+ people and other subjugated groups. And it's one of the worst things that could ever happen to us. And in this case that part of law doesn't even matter cos she was very clearly raped regardless of intoxication but still the system covered it up!

    Side note... Jake Tapper destroying the DA on CNN was glorious
