The right would rather attack a real woman than, oh, say, a literal child rapist

Holy fucking shit.

Plus his defense was essentially she was into it...he's a gross person

While she was provided with alcohol

Wow...I'm impressed, he's even more gross than I realized, which is impressive because he was already the mostest grossest, I thought

I only read about four or five paragraphs. This just blew my mind again. Holy shit. Fuck this guy.

I read about and heard about (podcast and RSS news from the same site) a pastor who claimed the same (the victim was an adult): she enjoyed it because she didn't resist. Awful people.

Yeah, that's how I found out about him too...the grossest part to me is the complete abdication of responsibility because she either "came onto" him or "wanted it too" ... Seriously even if 100% did actually throw herself at him, he's the adult and should know better without even thinking. And perhaps explain why the 12 shouldn't do that and then NEVER TALK TO HER AGAIN..... And it just occurred to me why in the hell was he even talking to her in the first place what good could come of a random19-year-old talking to a random12-year-old regardless of gender‽
