Violet has a question

Why the difference?

A 17-year-old Hispanic boy was allegedly attacked, sodomized with a pole, and burned with cigarettes by a couple of skinhead freaks in Houston. The two skinheads, who are charged with aggravated sexual assault, encountered the victim at a party.

Interestingly, no one so far has suggested that the alleged victim may have actually agreed to be sodomized and later changed his mind. Nobody’s said a word about whether the victim was drinking, and as far as I can tell, there are no reports on whether he was a virgin or had any kind of reputation for sexual activity. Defense attorneys have not suggested that the victim was leading the skinheads on, giving off signals that he wanted to be sodomized with a metal pole; nor have they floated the possibility that the whole “assault” was something the victim asked the skinheads to do in order to help him launch his porn career. Most surprising of all, no one is focusing on the obvious point that the victim went to that party willingly.
