I see you are back to being a bully, TD. Stop being so intolerant of others on this board and you might learn something from the "young uns"
I was merely trying to warn CW about you and some others.

Why not advocate for change? Even if just on a softball discussion board. Maybe if more people did that, your granddaughters might benefit instead of your great great granddaughters.
I did a lot of deferred gratification to do research in nuclear medicine instrumentation and cancer applications and didn't like how indirect my contribution was so I went to Med School and am now a radiation oncologist and a significant portion of my practice is treating childhood cancer. I treat all the kids that come through our practice. The others refuse because it is "too hard to deal with". Somebody has to step up.
It is a lot less OK to drive drunk than it was 20 years ago. That is because people, MADD comes to mind, started getting pissed off about it. After all, it is the alcohol's fault that that the driver killed somebody, not the driver.
How about stopping blaming alcohol and sluts and whores and putting the responsibility where it belongs - the perpetrators. Why is it that no posters or sons of posters would ever do such a thing and treat women with the utmost respect at all times but it is the woman's fault when it does happen? It is pure, unadulterated BS. Message you are sending is clear. It is just feeding in to supporting the status quo.
Many posters give 10 time more crap to parents that think their DDs are good players - maybe even a little better than they really are - than to guys that sexually assault women.
At least frickin' condemn the situation, go on record, stop making excuses and accepting. Pathetic.
Off my soap box.

Why create more laws when the ones that in place aren't enforced. You realize at no point did you stand up for the kids or place any blame on a man who manipulated parents, kids, friends, co-workers and raped young boys... So if I had to say what side you were standing on based on your statement I would say a foot on both sides. Thats bad. And you can make people more moral. If Sandusky got the death penalty, and everyone that assisted him got life in prison you would detour the next guy. Example was in the old west days penalty for such actions was a hanging. So there would never be a second time. New laws are in place already, Right now instead of the easy way of fixing the problem government has decided to go with a procedure called chemical castration. Which is ridiculous? Cost tax payers a ton, the process is lengthy and there is no guarantee it works. I know cause a family friend is running a clinic in NorCal that is doing it. The old west way would be more effective in my opinion.....

Thanks for bringing up The alcohol since nobody here has actually blamed alcohol for these issues. We have talked about the young women who abuse alcohol being held accountable in the legal system........just like drunk drivers are now.
The issue is the girls' behavior can be a contribute to causing some of the events. They can control their own destinies in most instances by avoiding behaviors that place them I situations where they may be assaulted.
That is the change you need to be supporting along with the boys changing their behaviors.
No does mean No. No alcohol, no slutty clothes, no casual oral sex, no frat parties, no attack.
