Rape and RetardsI'm pretty much known as being a pretty insensitive guy who has little/no emotions or feelings, while this isn't exactly true I can understand someone thinking that after hearing some of my "opinions". The following is an example of a time when one of my "opinions" kinda got me in trouble.
First off I was expressing to a group of about 5 of my friends how I thought that the harsh prison sentences for people convicted for rape were bullshit. I suggested that rape should be equivilant to a parking ticket or speeding ticket...you pay a fine and that's it. Maybe if you get too many of them (like 10) you have to spend a week in jail or something. Well, immediately after I said that one of my friends informed me that his girlfriend had been raped at a party the previous weekend...he was serious...i felt like an ass (though i couldn't stop smiling)
