More sickness reported to us on a daily basis by our local news channels. This one is a little different though because it exposes how some laws operate and how men can be victims of such strict liabilities.

Now I for one do not surf the net, myspace or facebook looking to pick up 8th or 9th graders. However some men do, the two gentlemen in particular claim that they did not know the girl was so young, her myspace page mislead them. I wonder how you can be mislead by a 13 year old, I know that the hormones they are  injecting our food with have the tendency to make these little girls look like grown women but often their minds are far from mature. So I just wonder how a man who is 22, can be mislead by such a  young girl after they had a few conversations. I mean what is she talking about at 13, flavor of love and sequential math homework.

Her father is a shame of a man, he still allows her to keep this myspace page that misleads young gentlemen and still allows her to stay out late. Then cries foul when he finds out that she is sleeping around with older men. This sounds like some nonsense on Maury, the parents should be jailed for allowing this to continuously happen and not taking any precautions to keep their daughter from attempting to mislead men on the internet. 2 Gentlemen have had their lives ruined because of these lies, they will be labeled as sex offenders, and probably raped in prison once the correction officers spread the word on the block what these brothers are in for. I think the father should be arrested and the girl should be monitored or taken away from these careless parents of hers.

As a message to the brothers, please use your head and be more careful when meeting people off of the internet. This man is now spending time in prison and has had his life ruined because he hastily went to bed with this young manipulative girl. Statutory rape cases are strict liabilities which means the court does not care that you did not know that she was a certain age. Because you committed the crime, you will do the time and claiming ignorance is not a viable defense in these scenarios.

Misunderstood: A Hustler’s Tale

Driven by dreams of material things
Cant blame em; on TV that’s all he seen
Takes more than a reckless spirit
To build a crack empire
Learn the ways of the street fast
Or your life will soon expire
Fiends is clickin’ to what they got on 43rd
So you set up shop next to the woods on 45th
House in the cut you don’t want no shit

Takes more than a reckless spirit
To do what your doing
More like economics and trade agreements
In that language you’re fluent
If only Columbia or Harvard came to the hood
Maybe this young man wouldn’t be misunderstood
With these practices
You’d be a top CEO
But instead we’re relegated to the streets
It ain’t fun out here
Everybody’s packing heat

So you wholesale your product
So all the abusers come to you
Now their consumers
Are your customers
And everybody knows you
Business is good, assets and such
Be careful brother, don’t press ya luck
You got big dreams
To get ya family out the hood
Never was too flashy
But now your rims are what make you look good
Just some more attention
Before they wave ya ass goodbye
Coppers watching, enemies plottin’, snitches will end ya life

He coulda been bigger than John Rockefeller
Coulda taken his charisma
And used it for something better
The world judges you
For serving with hope with despair
The streets is watching
You cant sleep
This lovely crack house
Is surrounded by fiends
Your enemies creep with guns
With ambitions to blow holes in your dreams
Yet the cops pick you up
Putting football numbers behind this big dream
Too many keys to count
You’re on your way to the bing

Don’t get me wrong, they crooked too
You ain’t got no boats
To get all these drugs through
All them drugs they caught you with
Didn’t even make it to the precinct
They supply your competition
And our communities are still bleeding
Only if Penn State and Temple
Came to the hood
Maybe this young mans life
Wouldn’t be so misunderstood

Caution, the following video is extremely disturbing and will definitely make you extremely angry. I am not posting this video for kicks and giggles. Far too often do we sweep “taboos” under the rug in our society and people become victims of such crimes because of it. The news is depressing so we turn it off but maybe after watching this we will realize that not only do we need to turn it on. We need to be aware of the people in our communities; particularly sex offenders who have a habit of striking again. Having these types of dialogues may save a child’s life. Be safe and God Bless!
