Is The Left Losing Its Mind Over Campus Sex
Minding The Campus ^ | October 16, 2014 | KC Johnson

This week has featured a potential tipping point in the debate about due process and campus sexual assault.

The first event came in publication of an extraordinary column by Ezra Klein, defending California’s “affirmative consent” law. In one respect, it wasn’t surprising to see Klein defend the proposal; too many liberal commentators (not to mention, of course, the entire Democratic contingent in the California legislature, plus Governor Jerry Brown) have backed the law. But Klein’s argument was astonishing—he conceded that the law was flawed, even badly flawed, but celebrated the flaws as a virtue.

The law will mean that “too much counts as sexual assault” and that innocent students will be branded rapists (though such cases, Klein suggests in a fact-free claim, “very, very rarely” occur). But Klein considered it “necessary” to get more students deemed guilty of rape in “morally ambiguous” si

Their idea is to run everyone into little whores in grade school then throw them in jail when they get to college.

The “Left” lost its mind over a century ago. Surely, longer than that.

The Left is only concerned about suppressing sex between heterosexuals.

LIBs are mentally ill. They have always been mentally ill. They will continue being mentally ill. The key is to never give them a position of authority, responsibility or power. Then, they remain somewhat entertaining, yet worth ridicule.

The little whores won’t be thrown in jail. The idea is to throw the guys into jail who are dumb enough to have sex with them.

Radical feminists have to keep up the lie about the patriarchy continually oppressing females. So even when women go to college, nasty males are still assaulting and raping helpless, innocent females proving it’s still an awful world for women. These statements, like virtually all statement by leftists, are lies.

"throw guys into jail"

The radical feminist's goal is criminalizing all men for associating with females. In feminist eyes, males are automatically guilty of terrible crimes against females...even if evidence has to be cooked up. All for the long-term goal of a country run by the crazy feminists and their leftist pals. Something like the situation we now have with Pres. Obola.
