So he thinks some kinds of raping is ok, should he be fired?

Depends, is he saying its OK to rape you with a tree?!

[TimberWolf]

I was considering creating a poll asking whether rape was rape, but I auto-censored it.

[Old Greg]

He thinks it's OK to get rich selling fags to kids in 3rd world countries, so why moralise now?

That's not what he said at all
He said that rape covers a wide spectrum of sexual crime and treating all rape the same makes no sense.

Nah he is a tree lover.

Ok on a serious note, its Daily Mail readers like you which has turned this into a story, in the eyes of the law there is such a thing as consensual rape, ie a 15 year old girl and her 16 year old boyfriend, as she is under age it is statutory rape even if consensual. Compare that with the other end of the scale where as a sex attack violently rapes a random women, there for Ken is right to say some rape is more serious than others.

Rape is rape as Simonmac can attest to, how is bubba Simon?

OMG you really are a ****wit, my point is no not all rape is rape, the law is an ass for branding it all together.





(PS Bubba is a kind, giving and very gentle lover, just like your mum)

WHS.

For example a 17 year old sleeping with a 15 year old is rape. A wife/partner saying yes then no is rape. Wilmslow wearing a mask etc

The other point was that if you say 'yeah i did it' he wants 50% off as opposed to the 1/3 off
You get at the moment.

So yes there are different levels of rape. My issue is
With ken is that he seems to be out on his own. He's applying brilliant thought out logic to the situation of crime but is going to fall foul of human emotion.

He's screwed IMO.
