I am firmly of the belief that a cop could walk up to an old lady with a walker, blow her brains out in full view of 200 witnesses of unimpeachable character, all of whom recount the events the same way, and, barring video evidence, the constable would not face any real legal trouble.
Yeah dennis that’s pretty much the way it is.
Anyway, somehow it seems unsurprising that california’s sex offense laws are “draconian”. The tyranny of the left in American politics is just as bad as the tyranny of the right, just in different forms and guises.
As I understand it, someone who streaks a public event has to register as a sex offender. Crazy stuff.
Even if he’s a robot from the future who arrived naked and then became Governor?
Special exceptions can always be made for those who “serve the law”. :/
Well, he did use any means necessary to obtain acceptable raiment.
