I'm sorry but o have to call bullshit here

Child abuse and sexual assault are both taken VERY seriously by law enforcement and justice systems world wide. The thing though is that at least here in the west we have this pesky principle of being innocent until proven guilty, which is a good thing (TM).

It basically makes.sure that there is a preference of criminals not being convicted over innocents being in jail. Again this is a good thing.

It does cause, however, that sometimes criminals go free, and they they do, it's with good reason; by law they are innocent, still.

Now you might think: well, then let's go vigilantism on his ass, right? No. If you kill this guy or girl extrajudicially, you are simply murdering someone, and you deserve to be jailed, the end. It sucks that not all rapists can be jailed but that means that it can't be proven, and that is the point with rape: a lot of times it's a he said-she said. If she claims it was against her will, he says that she contented, who do you believe? If a child claims that he or she was abused for a long time, we won't always be able to prove it either.

It's not as simple as saying that the law doesn't care.

And of course he has mountains of evidence to support this claim, he wouldn't just make.up shit like this right?

I somewhat agree with you but whenever I stand next to one of those guys in a Lambo with a hot young girl who need to accelerate full BBRRAAAAAAAAAHHH until the next traffic light 30 meters down the road, I'll still assume you have a tiny penis and are trying to make up for it. It's not the tiny penis I care about, its the "I'm so insecure that i need a Lambo and a hot chick to feel like i matter" that irks me.

So you want Trump to win and you want Gaza eradicated, then.

We'll technically, if she's president, that would be VERY true.

I'm sorry, no. No, no, no.

Don't care what the reason is, we don't do vigilantism. If someone diddles your daughter it's not your fatherly duty to murder and get jailed. It's your fatherly duty to ensure the fucker is locked up by law and that your daughter will be taken care of, THAT is your duty.

Leave vigilantism to Hollywood movies

Also killing 2 children and wounding many more... You know, the thing that tends to happen when you randomly set off bombs all over the place in between civilians and families.

New York police have defended their actions after a bystander was shot in the head

This.

This is the problem already. Instead of "something happened, the officers in charge are temporarily on hold until we have fully investigated this incident" it's immediately defending the indefensible.

I'm all for unions but fuck the police union with an umbrella. Defending workers rights is great but this is defending psychopaths, defending no and bad training, defending violence, defending an abusive system that by now has killed thousands over decades.

STIO DEFENDING THIS SHIT

If you're in a reasonably sized company, do NOT go to HR. She might get fired for her behavior, you WILL be fired for starting a fire. HR does NOT like fires.

I had the good fortune to battle the CTO of a multinational who couldn't keep his hands off the employees. Everyone was too afraid to speak up, I was not. The CTO was fired. One day after he fired me with the full support of HR, because "you are incompetent in your job". Mind you this was after multiple stellar reviews of my local superiors

How is this any different from theft? These people should be sent to jail. If one of these homeless kids would steal $100 in goods from any store there is a good chance they'd have to sit in a jail cell for a while.

These trips were muchore valuable, toss all of them in jail for a month at least
