    I’m sorry… are you saying it’s not their fault that they raped teenagers because it didn’t occur to them to ask them their age?

    Despite a history of music stars raping teenagers going back to at least Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis in the 1950s?

    What absolute nonsense.

            If sex act proven to have happened, it is statutory rape. Groupie or not, consent or no consen.

              Ain’t a crime if you got the dough. Arrest the guy who brought her to the house. He’s not rich. That’s a crime.

            No. It should be for rape. If he did it, he raped her. An adult having sex with a 13-year-old is rape.

                And there it is- another person deciding that women should always be suspected of lying about being raped so they can get money.

                  Rich people can’t rape people because rape isn’t a crime for rich people because rich people can lie, rape, and kill anyone they want because laws aren’t for rich people.

                  So I dunno what you’re upset about. He’s rich. Duh. He commits crimes. His next album will sell more because of this.

                    Unless they’re in a civil suit. Which is what is happening,

                    But sure, she totally lied about her age back then as part of her plan to do a civil suit decades later or something.

                    And it’s not like you can tell someone is a barely pubescent child just by looking at them, can you?

                    Oh wait, you absolutely can.
