This shouldn't even be an issue of "doubled standards". The fact that the mother chose to take what I'm sure she felt was the "high road" is, in my opinion, still the wrong decision.
I don't care if its women attacking men, or men attacking women. This is harassment, plain and simple.
Get angry that this even happens in the first place, not over who the attacker or victim was.
i think the mother is doing the wrong thing by not pressing charges.triggrhappy94 said:Well you can't do much if charges aren't pressed...
... but that is considered rape
Correction: He wasn't screaming like a little girl, he was screaming like a child.viranimus said:Honestly I can understand the parent though.. If my 11 year old son was screaming like a girl from having older girls trying to strip him.. I would be so ashamed I wouldnt want to have to go through court proceedings either.
luckily its not a she said he said, they dumb asses made a video of there assault, pretty clear cut, they can probably take it to court with out having to directly involve the boy.JezebelinHell said:The situation his mother is looking at is the same one that causes rape cases to not be brought to light also. They are victimized again by having to testify in court. Standing up and facing your assailants and having to be cross examined even if they go easy on you because of your age/situation is still additional trauma and stress. I wouldn't want to do it as an adult and it is not a decision I would make lightly as a parent. Not everyone has the strength of personality to pull through it better than they started. Even if he didn't have to testify, the amount of time of the whole trauma would have to be drawn out. You could be talking years with the way lawyers can hold things up.
The most power his mother can give back to him is allowing him involvement in that decision. Everyone else should respect that decision, she knows the whole situation, and be thankful it isn't one you have to make in reality.
Haha this was awesome.

You know what one is at eleven years, viranimus? A child.
You know what happens to grizzled veterans who get mauled by guys twice their size (or simply enough big guys), viranimus? They scream like little girls. They scream like children.
In the US, we know this, thanks to our enhanced interrogation policies. SEALS, revolutionaries, Special Forces, terrorists. All scream like little girls as you put it. Marines; beg for mercy. Army Rangers, make up what they can, just to get it to stop. That's why we put them through SERE training; we don't hold up against torture like John Rambo or Morpheus. We just don't.
May you never breed, viranimus. For sake of your children, may your genes, your surname and culture die out with your generation.

Evidently, I have issues.Bags159 said:Haha this was awesome. Thank you for posting.
That does not make it fast. They will drag it out. They will be tried together, they will have to be tried separately, they will not be able to find a jury, they will need a different venue, blah, blah, blah... It will not be quick regardless of the evidence.tofulove said:luckily its not a she said he said, they dumb asses made a video of there assault, pretty clear cut, they can probably take it to court with out having to directly involve the boy.JezebelinHell said:The situation his mother is looking at is the same one that causes rape cases to not be brought to light also.

the boy would tell his story to the lawyer, the lawyer will talk for his behalf with out the kid being present, these cases often have that happen.
That is a malicious misquote that you read. The victim is not to blame, but prudence in terms of what you're wearing is mentioned.rapidoud said:I remember reading somewhere that the bible has the victim disgraced in the case of rape in cities because clearly they brought it upon themselves
