If so, then in Saint's Row the Third, I am a serial offender o_o;

Anyways, technically a 7-yearold CAN sexually assault someone, but I don't think that in this particular case it was. It was simply self-defence.
hehe well i think i pressed the "ball kick button" more then my left mouse button xD
so i think im off to jail aswell :D

that happens if the person receiving or the one pictured is under the age of 18- that point it is considered child pornography. its just for the protection of the person pictured-keep it away from the creepy grandpas

When did Satire of the late-90's turn into spookily accurate predictions of the early 2010's.

This federal investigation makes me a Saaaad Panadaaaa.

Wait...WHAT?! Some kid got CHARGED with ATTEMPTED MURDER because they went to a Halloween party as (I assume) Altair or Ezio or something like that?!

WHAT.
ARBITRARY.
SILLINESS.

...What's next, kids being expelled for going to a halloween party as a devil? Sheez...
Well, a quick Google search did come up with a kid who was sent home for dressing as Jesus. [http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2121464/posts] Though the official story apparently isn't hosted on the CBS website anymore, I found that same article on two other websites, so I guess it's probably a little true.

The attacker didn't mean anything sexual, and the victim probably didn't think of it as sexual in any way either, they're, uh, how does American grading work, 7 years old, of course there was nothing sexual. It was just violent. Punish for that if you really must punish a victim of bullying.

Sigh...this is a moment in which i am disappointed with my own countries law system. It seems to me that most american laws are unclear when they need to be, E.g. sexual assault. I cant tell you how many times my father would help me practice a karate technique i was working on and he would be on the receiving end of a hit the the balls. If he or i could be sued over something stupid like that, then I'm moving to Canada because there is no reason when two children are joking around, that it should lead to a prosecution. I do however think that the child should recieve some sort of punishment, but not a prosecution.

No its not. He wasn't doing it for sexual reasons so the sexual part doesn't even come into play. Heck it isn't assault it was self defense.

Sure if he was maybe 20? then he could be charged, but he's 7, he's being beat up on by bigger kids, anything else he did would have just pissed them off more

No it shouldn't be sexual assault, and if they're still going to charge him with something they should definitely charge the bullies too. Personally, I think that counts as self defense in that sort of case.

One- The kid is seven years old, do they even know what sexual assault is?!

Two- Since when does punching someone in the balls counts as sexual assault anyway? ...Does kicking someone in the crotch count?

I think someone's trying to dodge dealing with this shit...

THIS is a topic I'd expect from books like Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy, or the Discworld novels! The world has become a parody of itself!

Seriously? The kid is not only being bullied but could be seriously injured or killed by chocking and so he defends himself by a crotch-shot and HE'S in the wrong? That is messed up! Not only can a child of the age not sexually assault someone due to their balls not dropping yet but it was also in self defense. That is like calling sexual assault when someone brushes your butt in a crowded elevator. Not sure how they handle things in Boston but that is some messed up crap.

Ok, the kid was being choked, after getting his gloves stolen, so when he kicked him in the crotch (i read the article and that's more likely) but it would seem that no one cares about the kid, and he was sexually assaulting someone?
Hang on a second I'm going to look up sexual assault here.
Alright I looked, and yes the kid did make contact, but Often it's also the nature of the contact. Sexual assault would be if I slapped a girl on the butt, or groped her chest, or even just wrapping my arms around her and pulling her really close to me could count, And they count because the reason I did these actions is because my actions were motivated by a Sexual urge. But a kid kicking another kid in the groin, because he's being choked? He was trying to fight the kid off. I don't know what's wrong with this school but I sure hope this kid Doesn't have to suffer because some adult is an idiot.
And I Might edit in a picture later.

1. Fuck the people doing this shit.

2. Sexual Assault implies the intent was sexual in some way, it wasn't. The kid just knew it hurt like fuck.

3. That kid is awesome

4. Again, fuck the guys who started this.

I'm not going to say I know one way or the other who was right, wrong or indifferent here... but the kid is seven. This could have been many things. Sexual assault is not one of those things.
I'm glad I grew up in a time when most children were allowed to be innocent for awhile.
