The Underlying Problems of SB 967 and Affirmative Consent

February 17, 2016

Under an affirmative consent law, everyone is guilty except for monks, nuns and eunuchs. Think back to your own sexual experiences for a moment. Did you stop and ask for affirmative consent every single time? Probably not. Does that make you a rapist? No. It makes you a human..Our justice system is based on due process and the presumption of innocence, and this necessitates disbelieving all allegations until evidence can be presented in a court of law. This might seem harsh, but it is our only protection from a nightmarish system of witch trials and kangaroo courts.
