WARNING: this mentions rape. please be careful if you aren't comfortable with this topic. i love you guys.
hey guys. so i know this came out a few days ago but my friend sent me a video on it a couple of minutes ago, and i hadn't heard about it until now. so here is my rant about the awful, disgusting human being that is brock turner.
for those of you who don't know, brock turner is a ràpist who ràped a girl while she was unconscious at a frat party (sorry i can't type the word out regular, this might get reported if i don't). for this crime, he only served six fucking months out of the possible 14 years in jail.
now because i want to make sure my point gets across clearly, i want to break this down into sections.
first, i want to talk about alcohol. brock, at the time of the ràpe, had alcohol in his system. now we all know that alcohol can make it hard to think clearly and mess with your emotions. however, this does not mean that it alters your morals, nor does it excuse your actions. if you cheat on someone while drunk, you're still a cheater when you're sober. if you ràpe someone while you're drunk, you're still a rapist when you're sober. being sober does not take away your actions.
next, lets talk about reputation. brock was a student at standford university, who was apparently loved by everyone and was this great swimmer or whatever. to me, it only make since that all of that goes away once you ràpe someone. however, that is not the case here, and because he was assumed to be this great person before he ràped someone, he only got six fucking months for ràping someone.
and that brings me to my last point of 'we don't want to ruin his life now, do we?'
this disgusting piece of garbage's mother sent the judge a letter, and in that letter, it said this;
"I beg of you, please don't send him to jail/prison. Look at him. He won't survive it. He will be damaged forever and I fear he would be a major target. Stanford boy, college kid, college athlete – all the publicity. This would be a death sentence for him."
oh boo hoo i'm gonna go cry now for your poor 'standford boy' who ràped a girl. i'm hoping if i say it enough times it will get through these people's heads. he ràped someone. that means that he is a huge asshole and he deserves whatever is coming for him. i don't give a shit that it would be 'a death sentence for him'. if he didn't want to go to jail, then he shouldn't have ràped that girl.
okay, i have a lot more to say but this is already pretty long. i will be posting 'real ass advice' today, so be on the lookout for that! other than that, i love you all!
