News CPM writes "Here we go again... Anything a female does wrong is automatically considered "Strange News". Fifteen months for buying beer? Right! Sounds to me like she got a sweetheart deal for a perverted little fetish of getting naked in front of young boys. It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway. Switch the genders. I know she did not admit to, nor was she convicted of, the stripping thing. But substitute a man in her position buying beer for young girls. For one thing, it would be called "plieing them with alcohol" rather than just "buying beer". And only 15 months, sure...."

So does she lose custody? Where is the sexual assault charge if she was licking their faces?

This women should only be allowed to see her son under supervised visitation, and custody given soley to the father.

Where is the info on what happens to the kid?

Normally when one gets sentenced, doesn't he/she typically get like 90 days, or 1 year or 10 years?

What is this 3 to 15 months. This must be some sort of conditional thing. What kind of conditions? 3 months if she attends AA and gets her signatures from them? Maybe seeks counsuling? Sounds more like probation. Is she really going to do anytime? Is this like a suspended conditional thing or something?

It's my impression that this type of sentence is pretty common because I hear it all the time. I'm not a lawyer so there may be exceptions, but it's my understanding that in such a case, the first number is the minimum stay before parole is considered and the last number is the max time if parole isn't granted between the minimum and maximum times. If the person is paroled early, they get out of jail early, then must remain on parole with the government watching over them with lots of rules and conditions until the maximum time is up. Then they are really free

Sound about right to everyone else here?

Yeah, that's the weirdest thing about this case [this was on the board before] is that no info is given about what happens to the kid - what kind of laws would let her retain control over her kid when she has shown she 'loses control' to the point of sexual assault and trying to intoxicate her son and friends. And if it is the same story, also endangering their lives by getting a kid without a permit to drive a car.

And yeah, it grosses me out, too.

Is that a legal term or maybe you devised that on your own from an old Latin class? I can't find incorpus or sana in my law dictionary. The closest I could find was "sanae mentis" meaning "of sound mind".

By the way, we don't know for sure that she was drunk. That was just her excuse to justify her moronic behavior. She never would have done what she did if it wasn't for that alcohol, so she's really not truly responsible for her actions. That justifies the light sentence.

Apparently there was no adult male around to blame.

"The old "pills and alcohol" excuse."

Perhaps she heard at a domestic violence conference, that if she was drunk and had sex with a male(s), the drunkeness would relieve her of all responsibility for her decision to engage in seuxal activity. In that situation she would then be free to cry, "Rape!" I remember reading a poster at a domestic violence conference, "Just because I'm drunk doesn't mean you can rape me."

Isn't it ironic that a woman can be just that drunk, get behind the wheel of a car, drive off, kill a man, and be charged with murder or man slaughter? Shouldn't they excuse a woman for that too? Shouldn't they instead charge the dead man with attacking the car of a druken woman with his body? "Just because I'm drunk doesn't mean you can wreck my car."

I'm surprised they didn't charge the boys with sexual assault in this case, after all, as domestic violence advocates teach us, "She was a druken female and not responsible for her behavior."

But this is what you said - Perhaps she heard at a domestic violence conference, that if she was drunk and had sex with a male(s), the drunkenness would relieve her of all responsibility for her decision to engage in sexual activity. In that situation she would then be free to cry, "Rape!" I remember reading a poster at a domestic violence conference, "Just because I'm drunk doesn't mean you can rape me."

I understood the first part of your statement. That some women feel that they are not culpable of their decisions when having sex under the influence of alcohol. No disagreement there from me.

Where you lost me was the next part where you described a rape prevention poster. I fail to see the connection. If a woman was actually raped while drunk, it is not her fault. Many women are date raped while under the influence of alcohol and because of their willingness to drink the alcohol they often feel at fault for the rape. The poster clearly states this and is attempting to make women aware that their decisions against sex even when drunk are valid.

Your tone insinuates that you disagree with the poster. So, are you implying that when women are drunk that they are allowed to be raped?

I am just asking for a simply clarification because your point was poorly constructed.

Absolutely not, consensual sex is not rape even if two people are drunk and the woman chooses to lie about the consent the following day and that is all I said. Why would a woman do something like that? Money, the money she can get in civil court, using the gender feminist scam laws against men that so many states actively promote against innocent men. Shame on you for trying to twist my words.

Those words at the top in italics are your words not mine. The point I was trying to make before you so illogically went off course was that the woman in this story sexually abused those boys, then tried to use her drunkenness to excuse herself of her criminal behavior, just like a lot of women do when they lie about consentual sex by crying rape after they change their minds a day or two later (after the sex). Women should be held to the same level of accountability as men, but they are not. Where is the shield law for a man who is falsely accused of rape? The female who was convicted should take full responsibility for her action.

“Listen loony bin. You are the one who doesn't understand the message of a simple rape poster.”

Obviously, I understand it more clearly than your bigoted perspective allows you to see. The poster intimates that “Reasonable women” who choose to get drugged and drunk and have sex with males have no responsibility for their actions, whereas an average man in the exact same situation bears full culpability. In your next comments in your posting, that I quote below, it appears you are using the same logic in trying to excuse the female in that rape poster quotation. In your logic, in both cases, it appears it ultimately comes down to "what a reasonable woman would assume" even if drugged and drunk..

I am happy to see that some judges are getting more and more clued in to that radical/gender feminist scam queen mentality. Listen to his words, . "'I think you need to get a big message that this is totally unacceptable,' St. John said." IMHO, I think you and your radical/gender feminist ilk need to get that same message. The news article also states, “Mercer County Judge Christopher St. John scolded Patricia M. Johnson, 35, of Hermitage, as he sentenced her...”

Your 2nd sentence:

“Secondly, this crack whore never used alcohol as an excuse. It was simply a detail in the article. You are assuming that because she was drunk she used it as an excuse even though that concept IS NO WHERE IN THE GODAMN ARTICLE. But keep reading things in a way that makes you seem insane.”

From the two news stories that have been posted:

#1 “Johnson says her unusual behavior was fueled by pills and alcohol.”
  “She pleaded guilty last month to a misdemeanor corruption charge and furnishing alcohol to minors.” ABC7Chicago.com

#2 “She also said her behavior was atypical and fueled by pills and alcohol.” Post-Gazett.com

Let’s see, it appears these statements are being made in a court of law, and the woman is saying her behavior is “atypical” (not typical) and “fueled by pills and alcohol.,” I take that to mean she's saying she normally doesn't behave the way she did, and the reason she behaved they way she did was because of the “pills and alcohol.”

Again, you are saying, “this crack whore never used alcohol as an excuse.” The Oxford Dictionary definition of excuse (as a verb) is, #1 “to overlook or pardon (an offense or person committing it) because of circumstances or some other reason. #2 to justify a fault or error, #3 to release from an obligation or duty, to grant exemption to. (as a noun) a reason put forward as a ground for excusing a fault, etc.

When Ms. Johnson offered this explanation, most likely in a court of law, I do consider that to be a feeble reason put forward as a ground for excusing a fault, etc. otherwise she could have kept her mouth shut 100%, and just pled guilty. The information in this story could have come from personal interviews, but normally reporters just take it from the court records.

You will also notice that I have set forth this entire explanation in a clear manner without ever once engaging in the personal attacks that characterize your postings. Your ungracious insults and profanity used against me in the course of normal conversation are a form of battery, and I suggest that you get professional help to deal with your violent rage, and please don’t just seek that help from those mainstream domestic violence quacks who are so bigoted that they refuse to see that female abuse is a major problem in the western world today. In the future please try harder to keep your comments on topic, without resorting to the attacks on people who are just presenting their opinions

Lastly, I noticed that you used profanity, taking Gods name in vain, even though you testified previously in a posting that you do not believe there is a God. Have you had a change of heart, are you just a hypocrite who insincerely makes claims your words prove you don’t believe, or is there some other excuse for your behavior?

I disagree. Obviously, the woman didn't admit to "stripping," but what about the Judge?

It sounds to me like the biased media is once again, not doing their job by portraying this woman as less than guilty, but let's just read it together so there can't be any false accusation about reading anything into the story.

The news headline states, "When go-carts fell through, mom allegedly stripped at son's party"

The article states, "Prosecutors charged that 35-year-old Patricia Johnson provided the entertainment when plans to ride go-carts fizzled..."

So let's see, what do we have so far? It was "alleged" by prosecutors she stripped, and she was "charged" with providing "entertainment."

ENTERTAINMENT? What kind of ENTERTAINMENT?

The article says, "Authorities say Johnson bought beer for her son and three friends -- and licked their faces while she did her striptease act."

The article further states, "Thursday, a judge sentenced Johnson to serve three to 15 months in jail." Ah, Sentenced! To be "sentenced" one must 1st be "convicted." To be "convicted" (by definition), "allegations" must 1st be "proven."

O.K. lets string all the big words together now: Alleged, Charged, Prosecuted, Convicted, Sentenced.

Uh, uh, wait a minute your honor I'm not guilty. I didn't strip. The article says, "But Johnson didn't admit she stripped for the 13- to 16-year-old boys at a hotel."

However, once again, the article says, "Authorities say Johnson bought beer for her son and three friends -- and licked their faces while she did her striptease act."

Does this newspaper consider the judge who convicted this woman to be an authority? I don't know if they do, but I do. I interpret this article to be saying that the judge believed the woman defendant "licked their faces while she did her striptease act," and that this Judge convicted her of that.

IMO, this is a poorly written article and therefore, an ambiguous piece of journalism so I may not have interpreted everything accurately. There may have been other factual inaccuracies in this story. Regardless of that, based on the information available in this story, that is my interpretation of the reported events and their outcome.

Allegation - an assertion unsupported and by implication regarded as unsupportable.

Yes, she was charged that is why it is an allegation. Even though she was convicted it would still be an allegation without any solid proof (i.e videotape).

I am sure that the allegations are coming from the other children that she stripped for but since she is in disagreement about her actions it is still an allegation. The testimonies of the children are considered circumstantial not filling the criteria as fully supportable evidence (yes this is where a debate could occur) but with a 15 month sentence and no sexual battery charge it does seem that the only thing they could solidly prove was her giving drugs/alcohol to minors.

And yes, the judge did sentence her. But without solid proof of the allegation, it still stands as an allegation. The conviction is a legal function outside of the determination of whether or not something is or is not an allegation.

So, sorry, you are wrong.

Maybe you should write them a letter too. The story does offer this additional piece of supporting evidence, "Johnson acknowledged allowing the boys to drink alcohol and participating in horseplay with them."

She admitted her "entertainment" was "horseplay," but denied it was "stripping." I guess this case ultimately came down to "what a reasonable woman would assume" even if drugged and drunk. Isn't it also funny how children's circumstantial testimonies have been used to convict so many men of child abuse allegatons, but here the word of these boys is not accepted.

Now, I know you two are in the middle of a pissing contest, but can I interject?

I believe that if this was a man who allegedly stripped in front of his teenage daughter and her friends, after buying them beer, and licked their faces this discussion would be a little different. Just reverse the genders and it becomes pretty clear cut. And why is that?

Xamot, you may or may not agree with my theory, but let's take it a step further:
Where is your "believe the victim" cry? I mean, aren't you a LITTLE disturbed that there is no mention of "children being sexualized"? or anything like it in the article? How old were these kids? Let's take a look:

13- to 16-year-old youths

And, she was convicted. Now, to be fair to Xamot, it's not clear what the hell they meant by the "corruption" charge. That could have been the party, the beer, or the stipping. But, AGAIN, these were 13-16 year old KIDS. And AGAIN, if these had been GIRL children the charges, IMHO, would have been more substantial and more coverage and more "victims advocates" would have been lined up and quoted.

THE POINT IS THE COVERAGE WAS DIFFERENT BECAUSE "MOM" DID IT, AND NOT DAD.

What criteria do the media use to decide whether she was “stripping” or “exposing herself”? It seems that when men are accused of being naked in front of teenage females they’re always exposing themselves, never stripping.

My opinion is that stripping implies that there is consent from a willing audience and it sounds far less depraved than the guy in the park wearing a trench coat. But when minors are involved should it really be seen differently?

I'm sure if you polled the members here on any of these, you'd get just about every position under the sun. We are simply about ensuring equality between the sexes, with an emphasis on men's rights.

Please speak for yourself, and sign it. Everyone has their own version of that list in different nuances of meaning, although I do agree with you that men and women should be treated eqaully under law. It's still a free country in some ways even though the gender feminists are doing everything they can to disempower all males to the point they have no rights.

Ahem. Actually, I disagree with three of the four issues you listed. In fact, some of the most outspoken and influential MRAs (Prof. Steven Baskerville, for instance) would, I imagine, vehemently disagree with at least part of your list. Alas, that is the great thing about the our movement. Unlike feminism, we are open to debate, discussion, dissent, and multiple viewpoints on such issues. Hence, we can disagree about the particulars of the domestic violence industry (for instance), and still both promote men's rights and be part of the same movement.

It makes the lockstep conformity over at NOW look absolutely ridiculous, eh?

It seems the site is being subjected to unprecedent levels of troll attack. A troll (or trolls) is posting garbage and then the same troll(or trolls) is posting garbage in reply. The aim is to discredit the site and discourage genuine posts. More active moderation of posts is probably needed.

I think they are afraid of the truth. God knows they've spent enough time lying that they should be. This site has recently had some really great men and women coming on and writing excellent pieces about the evils that: women's studies, women's commissions, the domestic violence industry, gender feminism, militant feminism, radical feminism, etc. have been committing against innocent men. Keep up the good work everyone. I congratulate you, and even the trolls are paying tribute to you in their own warped sort of way.

It seems to be a concentrated attack by a number of feminists.
This website is no secret to them. In fact it is a danger to them. This is thier way of wageing war on not just this website but on men's rights and men's rights activists, in general.
They see and KNOW that we as men are finaly begining to organize. And what better way to disrupt organization than to cause chaos?
That is what is happening.
But they will fail.
Perhaps we should fight fire with fire and go to all the feminist websites we can find and do some trolling of our own...,

That could be. It would be easy enough for Xamot to post anonymously at one point then post with his (her?) handle elsewhere in the thread.
Either way the results I mentioned are still this person(s) desired goal. To fragment and disorganize.

The statement above calling "most english speaking women" sluts does NOT represent the views of the vast majority of regulars of mensactivism.org.

We support equality between the genders, and rail against phony equality that favors one gender over another.

There's the Madcap Mysogynist, I don't know where he's been recently. But yeah, the majority of our posters might get a good deal frustrated with women on more than one occasion, but don't have the irrationality to bother with the frothing-at-the-mouth hatred radical feminists seem to muster for men.
I don't know how long I've been on the board, nigh on three years? roughly? I remember when lady rivka got chased off the board, not because of not liking the male posters, but she started getting threatening emails and guestbook comments, she thought it was from posting here. I wonder if that was an earlier terrorism effort?
