This story struck a nerve to me. Yes, I signed to have the judge removed. 6 months for rape because you're a good swimmer is fucking pathetic.
Why does this strike a nerve? My mother was raped on campus. I was an all-state swimmer, and had some of the fastest times in HS not only in Texas, but in the US. I was offered scholarships which I declined to join the military. Does that give me the right to fuck whoever I please? No.
What fucking mentality is it that because he can fucking swim good and "has a future", he doesn't deserve an appropriate punishment? His victim, who through no fault but his, has to live with this. She has to imagine her body being violated, she has to think how easy someone can get what they want, despite your efforts. Was she drunk? Yes. But alcohol didn't fucking choke her, drag her behind a dumpster, rip her clothes off, and forcefully rape her. This fucker did.
This pisses me off because you're telling women "oh well, you're on your own. If a man rapes you and is a rich, white athlete, he's above the law." You're giving swimmers a bad name, as bad as it sounds. By saying he's a good swimmer as a reason for a pathetic sentence, people unsubconsciously are going to think about that until this passes over.
And why the fuck is the news using a damn yearbook photo to go viral? Post the fuckers mugshot. Rip his ass down as much as you can. And a fucking County jail? Not even prison time. I'm just so set off by this.
My mother was raped, multiple times throughout her life. My best buddy in the military was raped. Yes, guy on guy. It happens. My cousins I am very close to were raped. This hits a personal nerve for me.
The only solace I find is his photo and name going viral. I hope the fucker gets harassed everywhere he goes, I hope he has trouble finding a job. I hope he's scared to leave his house. Because that's what he did to that girl. He made her scared, feel weak.
I'm doing ranting. I'm about to pop a blood vessel I keep thinking about this disgusting shit.
