I’m the man. I’m the man. I’m the man. Greene’s the man.

“Write about me running for president,” Greene said. “I’m running for president of the United States.”

Greene said he was born to be president and that he turns 35 in August of 2012.

“I’m the next president,” Greene said, while sitting on a bench. “I’ll be 35 … just before November, so I was born to be president. I’m the man. I’m the man. I’m the man. Greene’s the man. I’m the man. I’m the greatest person ever. I was born to be president. I’m the man, I’m the greatest individual ever.”

The accuser is blaming Greene for getting bad grades:

Camille was hoping for a chance to speak at Greene’s hearing so she could say how her encounter with the man she considers a predator changed her life.

“It just changed my personality in a way that was negative,” she said, adding that she is now nervous around older men. “I missed a lot of classes due to him and that messed with my grades, too, and I lost a scholarship."

Ya know... this could have been a lot worse if she'd changed the word "older" to a, uhh, certain skin color, but I can't imagine someone saying that nowadays

So what is this guy being charged with exactly? Showing pornographic picture(s) to an 18 yr old? Did he not warn her that is what they were? How could she have seen more than one picture if the first one was pornographic, and she didn't want to see it, then wouldn't she have not looked at anymore?

I dunno, this girl is freaking out suddenly and saying he is a predator. Is a predator someone who tries to consensually get with someone? Why was she so scared? Have the transcripts of the chat not been released?

i cannot think of any real crime occurring when somebody shows somebody else a screen with porn

Then would you also say it should not be a crime to show a minor porn? You would discard the "obscenity" exception from the SCOTUS' interpretation of free speech? You would allow pornographers to send pornographic mailers out to houses where children may be? You would permit snuff films to be shown on cable television? You would allow Hitler to come to power, kill all the Jews you hate so passionately, lock up anyone who disagrees with you, and then enslave anyone left alive from your DISGUSTING FASCIST POLICIES?!!!

It's called sexual assault.

And libertarians wonder why nobody wants to vote for them.

Libertarian: We should have smaller government and more freedom!!!

Crowd: Loud cheers

Libertarian: And, showing porn to someone who doesn't want to see it is freedom of speech!

Crowd: Couple of cheers, mostly look at each other and slowly walk toward the mainstream R and D candidates

On the bright side , I did not start regularly buying beer until 16 .

joking?

i'm talking about real crimes. showing a screen with porn to somebody who isn't a minor isn't a crime. it's not a violation of a contract, or of property, or physical integrity.

did he force her to watch it? did he threaten her to not close her eyes or leave the room or look some place else?

Yes it is. It is the crime of sexual assault, which is unwanted sexual contact, which would include unwanted showing of pornographic materials to someone.

She was at a computer in a school library, and the dude next to her randomly showed her porn. If you can't go to the school library without having to worry about the person next to you showing you porn, then you simply have no rights in this society.

it isn't a crime. it's not a violation of property, contract, or physical integrity. it can only be a crime if you want to punish whatever random behavior you happen to dislike.

What about mental integrity? This dude next to her showed her porn, and then asked if she wanted to go back to his place.

You should have the right not to be assaulted with porn if you don't want to.

so you have the right "not to be shown things"? where do you draw the line? what if i tell you bad news? what if i say something unpleasant to somebody that she claims causes her psychological harm? e.g., i tell a smoker it is bad to smoke. or i tell a healthy non-smoker that it is fun to smoke. the whole idea it's ridiculous. you don't have a right to not be shown things unless you have a contract saying so.
