Calif. judge says victims' body can prevent rape

I am not sure if I am more pissed off at the judge or the commissions response.

Quote:
"I'm not a gynecologist, but I can tell you something: If someone doesn't want to have sexual intercourse, the body shuts down. The body will not permit that to happen unless a lot of damage is inflicted, and we heard nothing about that in this case," Johnson said

Quote:
"In the commission's view, the judge's remarks reflected outdated, biased and insensitive views about sexual assault victims who do not 'put up a fight.' Such comments cannot help but diminish public confidence and trust in the impartiality of the judiciary," wrote Lawrence J. Simi, the commission's chairman.
At the very least the judge should be disbarred for incompetence.

Judge still gave the perp 6 years. People have been known to get less than that for murder.

That was the first thought that I had. I will be so glad when the old blue hair, lifetime politicians are gone from politics and the younger generation has taken over.

When you have a Supreme Court Associate Justice comparing homosexuality to murder, this judge could at least appeal to precedent.

Maybe his honor should be allowed to prove his theory. He can spend some time in the S.H.U at Pelican Bay with some inmates, specifically during shower time.

Afterwards, he can convince Oprah to hold one show out of retirement so he can share his findings.
