Nancy Pelosi's brother dodged a child rape charge in 1953 while their father was mayor of Baltimore. He was tried in a youth court. The media called him “dark & handsome”. Motherfucker was TWENTY YEARS OLD. The girls were ELEVEN and THIRTEEN. He was the only defendant out of 16 to go free.

    Wow...blaming the underage rape victims. That's a new low, even for you. Who are you, Joe Biden?

    Teenagers with mental health issues and/or a history of sexual abuse, do frequently have a pattern of seeking out risks and dangerous relationships with grown adults.

    So, let's blame the rape victims instead of the powerful people who hurt them. Real nice there! Totally punching down and bullying the little guy.

    Why is the automatic impulse not to punch up on the powerful? The ones who literally get away with rape and murder?

    It's not victim blaming at all and it is a thought terminating cliche to pretend it is.

    Instead, it is acknowledging the real cycle of sexual abuse and how lack of effective mental health and sexual abuse trauma treatment leads to a cycle of more sexual abuse and risky behavior.

    This pattern of seeking older men is still difficult to prevent, even with all the counseling, mental health programs, advocacy, in-patient treatments, and medications available, as well as close police support, safety monitoring, and aggressively pursuing criminal charges resulting in putting multiple predatory old men in prison for 5+ years, I've found. Teenagers with trauma and/or mental health issues are a difficult challenge, with lacking resources, legal barriers, and authority limitations that feel pretty limited to a parent. It is the confusing and counter-intuitive seeking of the same dangerous situations that seem the most troubling.

    It's blaming the victim instead of the powerful men who sexually abuse them and it's disgusting. Stop doing it.

    I'm not blaming anyone, just stating general observed facts relevant to the comment I replied to, unfortunately, from the expert perspective of a parent.

    Stop being disingenuous and using emotional tricks to try to censor the topic.

    Nobody's doing any censorship. It's literally impossible. I'm saying stop blaming the victim, is that really so hard? Direct your attacks at the powerful people who are pieces of shit. That should come naturally if you're a real person. We all hate the powerful, they hurt us all the time.

    I've never blamed the victim. Please stop saying I did and leave me alone.

    Sounds more like a paedo ring/gang to me than a conspiracy by the girls.

      It's also strange that he was charged with perjury for allegedly lying under oath in his own defense testimony. While I'm aware lying under oath is illegal, it seems pretty rare that they actually prosecute it. That's the kind of "bonus crime" I normally only hear about in cases against people the powers that be really don't like.

      Donno what to make of that in a case like this.

      Here's a quick heuristic to sift the truth from lies:

      Does it serve the interests of the powerful?

      If so, it's likely a lie.

      Does it punch down and hurt little people?

      If so, it's likely a lie.

      Keep these two rules in mind and you will go far. They are so often applicable they should have names.

      Sex-scandals and sex-offenses are a requirement to become a politician.
      The worst offenses give them more chance to a high position.
      This is managed by the FBI and CIA. They acquire the evidence and their handlers use it for blackmail.

      Reposted on censorship-free image hosting. Imgur sucks. Imagine defending a piece of shit like Pelosi.

      He was tried in a youth court because before the age of majority act in 1972, it was 21. What he did was abhorrent though and extremely disgusting.
