What happens is that they lie about it. The Louden County incident is pretty much exactly what you said and the school authorities lied repeatedly about it and the media and law enforcement backed them up. It was down to one brave set of parents, including a dad who got the shit kicked out of him by the police, to uncover the truth and force the right thing to be done. Unfortunately, until the media stops playing along with the pretence it’s going to keep happening.

Hopefully we will have more reactions like the Scottish Trans Rapist moment where the shameful behaviour of the authorities and the collusion of the media is writ large and forces change.

But yeah, if I were a parent I’d be extremely angry and afraid about it all.

I have to say that the way that US teachers have adopted this shit is alien to me a British teacher, and their zealous promotion of lgbT stuff wouldn’t be allowed in English state schools. It’s very worrying to look at from the outside.

Yeah that's the one I was thinking of where they just shifted around someone to let someone else deal with it leading to more girls being harmed. It made me SO angry to hear about. Imagine you're going through a horrific event somewhere you're meant to be safe, full of people who're meant to protect you and they only have the response of protecting your rapist? Oh and not to tell your parents about that 'little incident' because it's no big deal really. Do they not see the harm they're doing?
