Stanford. Everyone wants to brutalize Brock Turner–except his accuser and legally serious people

The Simpsons is perhaps the greatest educational tool…what I have grown to most appreciate about the show as an adult is its depressingly accurate portrayal of mob rule. I’ve been thinking about this because the online reaction to former Stanford athlete Brock Turner’s sentence for sexual assault is pretty much a Simpsons mob scene – deeply ignorant and utterly unaware of the terrifying precedent it’s setting.
