... and two teachers went down for having sex with the same girl.
Hmm. Four teachers at the same school? I don't buy that, either. The whole thing stinks of a bunch of kids who wanted to get all the tough teachers fired.
Say it IS true, however... I read what was said above about murder and ambiguous messages about sex. If this is true, then all that has happened is two guys had sex with someone who was legally capable of joining the army, owning a shotgun, owning a car, but somehow not legally able to have sex? I'd say the mixed message isn't the fault of the way our society treats sex. I'd say it's because we have an issue where we can't as a society, figure out when we call someone an "adult".
Fire the teachers; yes. But not because of the ages. Fire them because you're not supposed to sex up the students, Frankly, even then; TEENAGERS LIE. I'm not sure I believe them. It's all too convenient. I'd find out if these kids were close friends, and ask the other kids if they had problems with these teachers ahead of time. If the answer to both these questions is yes.. I don't believe it.
Look up the case of Dick Dasen, for a fun read on a similar subject. There's aboslutely zero evidence he ever had sex with an underage girl; however everyone calls him a "pedophile". The newspapers say one thing, but those of us who live in Kalispell know another story. Girls, who 99.9999999 percent of the time were legal age (only one was actually underage, and he may have just watched her), were paid 2 thousand dollars a session to have sex with a 60 year old man.
TWO THOUSAND. Do you know how much money that is in Kalispell? That would keep me going for 3 months, easily. These girls, of assorted ages, were making that sometimes 5 times a week. Then one crashed in a car, and somehow investigating where her money came from led back to him. And, get this: One of the girls, who was 18, demanded a hundred thousand dollars from him, or else she'd go to the cops. The national news called Dasen a child molestor... but we called Kristen ( the one who demanded the money )exactly what she was: a greedy whore. You know why? Because Dick Dasen was actually keeping several families from losing their homes, because he was patronizing their daughters and sisters and whatnot. And the people of Kalispell were perfectly okay with that. You know why? Because all the plants, the logging, everything has been shut down. By the stupid rich California implant assholes who live in Whitefish. They blocked, somehow, a megamall that woulda put us on the map again, as well. Endlessly protesting that now all that's left is Plum Creek. I bet you know where this story is going: Kristen was a daughter of one of said rich implants.
Was Dick wrong if he was schtupping 16 year olds? Hilariously enough, not by Montana law. He did once WATCH a 15 year old get it on with a 19 year old. This person is not a pedophile, he's pretty much just a prostitute customer. And hey, you know what? I've always been okay with prostitution. I've known several whores in my life, and not a one of them felt even vaguely victimized. But then I only know callgirls, you know.. escorts.. not crack whores. ...and then, I'd say the crack is exploiting them more then the paying customer.
Point I'm coming around to is: it's kinda funny that everyone will call these teachers "pedophiles" (incorrect term for someone who has sex with a 17 year old, incidentally).... but nobody will bother to call the girl who willingly fucked both of them a slut. Goes both ways, you know.
Kinda like that girl.. anyone remember the story? Who kept sending pics of herself to adults cellphones then calling the cops cause they had child porn? She should have been sent to juvie for what she was doing. Teenage girls are sometimes not actually "victims". A whole lot more sex of this type goes on then beltway America seems to think.
