Please take a moment to sign this petition.
This comment summarizes my thoughts on the matter of the Steubenville rape case, as well as the reason I hope you will take a few moments to sign this and pass it along to your friends. Thank you.
The petition is still a few thousand signatures short.
What is particularly disturbing/infuriating is that the video depicts the very attitude that’s responsible for casual rape being as common as it is (and it’s VERY common). Young boys need to realize that this kind of thinking is UNACCEPTABLE morally and in the eyes of the law. Given the national publicity that this trial has attracted, letting him get away with his crime (he knew what happened, and anyone with half a brain knows that) letting him get away with his actions without having to face legal consequences would be very irresponsible. It would send the message that it wasn’t really a big deal, and that line of thinking is EXACTLY what needs to change!
