In that regard this is terrifyingly sad. I would hope it doesn't accrue more points to the mid-western backwater hick image which we are so often assimilated into. Trust me, some of us are embarrassed and unable to move. This isn't the first or the last time I've heard my home compared unfavorably to a desolate nowhere. Please be considerate, as there are people everywhere who are evil so there are those among them who do good. There are many great lybian's and many great south dakotans, unfortunately for us a majority of wrong may in a democracy disagree with a minority of good. I'm sorry on the behalf of the land, which is innocent and golden. Love, Mike I was born in the Black Hills of South Dakota, and I miss my home. In that regard this is terrifyingly sad.

A 14-year-old girl refuses to testify against some perv who molested her, so a judge has ordered her jailed “indefinitely” while the perv is free to roam the streets of Akron. That judge has clearly been studying Sharia law. And you know, in Libya, the US’s newest blood brother, they lock up rape victims for indefinite periods all the time, also citing the womens’ “safety.” And who can forget the Illinois judge who threatened to throw a 16-year-old in the hoosegow for refusing to watch a video of her rape?

I read "Against Our Will" when I was 13 years old and I got it: men-as-a-group, the capacity for rape as an attribute of maleness.
