A high school cheerleader arrested on felony sexual assault charges for her relationship with a 14-year-old female classmate has been offered a plea deal on her 19th birthday.
Kaitlyn Hunt is being urged to accept the new deal which would keep her out of jail and prevent her from being registered as a sex offender - if she pleads no contest to two misdemeanor battery counts and one felony count for interference of child custody.
Her case attracted a glut of publicity after her parents did multiple interviews, claiming that their daughter was only charged because she is gay. As of May, 300,000 people have signed an online petition to have the charges against the teenager dropped.
Hunt, from Florida, is facing felony charges of lewd and lascivious activity. If she goes to trial, she faces 15 years in prison if convicted.

As of Wednesday, Hunt had not make it known if she would accept the deal.
Under a previous plea deal in May, Kaitlyn would have been forced to register as a sex offender as well as remain on house arrest for two years.
The latest plea deal was offered by the Florida state attorney's office in July, reported CNN, because it balances the needs of Hunt, the unidentified teenage girl and their parents.


Under the deal, Hunt would be placed on probation for three years and have a curfew of 11pm for the first year.
She must also agree never to contact the 14-year-old girl again. Her criminal record would later be expunged or sealed.


Hunt's parents say that the younger girl's parents demanded that Kaitlyn be arrested because they can't come to terms with the fact that their teenage daughter had a relationship with another girl.

Worldwide support: Thousands of people have protested against the prosecution of Hunt
Hunt's family claim that the relationship between the two girls was consensual. However under Florida law, a person under the age of 16 is not considered to be able to legally consent to sex.
The victims' parents say that they are only protecting their daughter and it has nothing to do with her being gay.

The Hunt family have tried to turn the case into a civil rights issue - claiming Kaitlyn was only charged because she is a lesbian.
More than 160,000 people have signed a Change.org petition asking Assistant State Attorney Brian Workman to drop the charges. More than 44,000 people have taken up the cause on Facebook.

Kaitlyn has said the legal battle has been emotionally draining.
She was expelled from Sebastian River High School near central Florida's Atlantic coast.
'Every day's different. Some days I'm my happy self. Some days I'm overwhelmed, some days I'm scared,' she said.

Gay rights advocates say older high schoolers dating their younger counterparts is an innocuous, everyday occurrence that is not prosecuted – regardless of sexual orientation – and not a crime on par with predatory sex offenses.


Hunt played on the basketball team with her younger girlfriend and shared the same circle of friends, said Hunt's mother, Kelley Hunt Smith previously said.
The two had a consenting relationship that began soon after Kaitlyn Hunt turned 18, and Mrs Hunt Smith said she assumed the younger girl's parents knew that.

But Hunt was kicked off the basketball team near the end of last year after the coach learned of the relationship because players were not allowed to date each other, her parents said.
Then, in February, prosecutors filed charges against her. The day before she was arrested, police and the younger girl's parents secretly recorded a phone conversation in which the two girls discussed kissing in the school bathroom, said Hunt's father, Steve Hunt.

They let her off easy because she's a girl, and a pretty hot lesbian one at that.

Can you imagine them making this kind of deal for a guy? No way.

In Florida you have to be 16 to consent to someone up to 21 years old I think. By law she committed statutory rape if they had sex. Just be because you're homosexual doesn't mean you can't break the law. But you can't tell these idiots that or they'll yell discrimination. Queers.

Fuck Kate's parents and every idiot that signed that petition. If she were a dude nailing a 14 yr old, nobody would care at all about her. This has nothing to do with her being a lesbian and everything to do with her taking advantage of a friggen middle schooler.

I hope she declines the plea deal and spends some time in jail.

IIRC they were both in HS at the time 14-18 (freshman and senior) One of those still in HS kids that happens to be 18 before graduating. Also If IIRC they were dating when the elder was 17 it just happened to spill over into when she was 18

I agree with the people pointing out that attitudes would be different if this were a guy and I know I'd be pissed if an 18 year old had sex with my 14 year old daughter, but as long as they were both in high school and as long as it was consensual (even if it wasn't legally consensual), I'd be against harsh legal penalties like jail time or sex offender status.

You're probably right about that. I wonder how often this kind of relationship (whether gay or straight) comes to the attention of prosecutors in Florida and I wonder how often it's prosecuted.

That's an interesting point. I know this has been discussed before, but I don't remember. Setting the gender stuff aside, if the older one was 17 is it okay? And then is it not okay when she turns 18? Or is it not okay even if she's 17?

I totally agree that harsh penalties for this kind of thing are ridiculous. It really comes down to whether the younger kid's parents approve or not. I knew of plenty of senior-freshmen relationships when I was in high school. Any one of the seniors involved could have basically had their life derailed by an angry parent. It's selective enforcement and it takes what should be a law to protect young people and makes it a weapon against them.

I'm not saying there shouldn't be something in place, but like you said, jail time or sex offender status is just too far.

I remember this

In 2003, Georgia prosecuted Marcus Dixon, 18, for having sex with a 16-year-old white teenager who attended high school with him. Dixon, a black male, was a model student with a 3.96 GPA and a scholarship to Vanderbilt University. The state charged Dixon with numerous crimes, including forcible rape, statutory rape, aggravated child molestation, assault, and false imprisonment. Dixon was convicted of aggravated child molestation and statutory rape. He received a mandatory 10-year-sentence for aggravated child molestation.

Under Georgia law, statutory rape charge is a misdemeanor when the participants are close in age. But the prosecutor added on the aggravated child molestation charge, which carried a much harsher mandatory sentence. Critics argued that the prosecutor and the victim's parents were motivated by race. Ultimately, the state supreme court dismissed the aggravated child molestation charge as inappropriately filed; today, Dixon is a professional football player.

I would have to say I disagree with your opinion. It's a fad that people are gay, huh? What about the people who waited until they got older to engage in that lifestyle?

That's a form of indoctrination. We indoctrinate our children with our moral values and one faction in our society wants acceptance of a homosexual lifestyle to be one of those values. Meanwhile, another faction wants to indoctrinate our children with the idea that homosexuality is wrong.

Edit: After reading the post you were responding to, I agree that they're not trying to indoctrinate our kids into a homosexual lifestyle. I won't say "no one" because there are probably some outliers who are trying to "convert" kids just as there are outliers in the straight community trying to fix homosexuals, but it's insignificant.

That's a form of indoctrination. We indoctrinate our children with our moral values and one faction in our society wants acceptance of a homosexual lifestyle to be one of those values. Meanwhile, another faction wants to indoctrinate our children with the idea that homosexuality is wrong.

"Wrong" by religious standards, and "Wrong" by legal standards are separate things.

So basically one group wants to be accepted and the other wants them banished because they believe they are wrong. Yep, that's the American dream right there. Be free (as long as a bunch of hypocrites who have a litany of sins themselves condone)

The same is true of NAMBLA as I'm sure you know. One group wants man boy love accepted and the other wants them banished because they believe they are wrong. Sometimes simplistic analyses aren't very useful.

Edit: After reading the post you were responding to, I agree that they're not trying to indoctrinate our kids into a homosexual lifestyle. I won't say "no one" because there are probably some outliers who are trying to "convert" kids just as there are outliers in the straight community trying to fix homosexuals, but it's insignificant.

I can pretty much guarantee there's a significantly larger faction trying to convert homosexual to heterosexual than the other way around.

I'm curious as to what evidence you have supporting your indoctrination and willingness of the liberal/progressive agenda in the schools.

What the 19 year old did was wrong and she is being punished for it.

In California the public schools now have to teach gay history. This is nothing more than indoctrination. Why should someone's sexual preference matter? When I was in school, we learned all about history and yes, if a person happened to be homosexual, that was brought up. But we didn't focus on it. For example, Alexander the Great did a lot of things, and we learned about Alexander the Great, and oh yah, merely as a side note, some believed he was gay. OK, fine.

Point being, someone's sexuality should not be a prerequisite to discuss them in history. You don't learn about Henry Ford or Thomas Edison because they were straight. You don't learn about George Washington because "he like the whoman!" You learn about these people because they made a difference in history, not because they were womanizers or were straight.

It's nothing more than changing the way we learn history to invoke an agenda. That agenda is that gay people are like everyone else. Guess what, gay people are not like everyone else. They are different and that doesn't mean they are special. It just means they choose to practice their sexuality in a way that 97% of society doesn't agree with or fiends offensive.

I think that according to the Williams Institute, which was founded to study and promote LGBT issues, approximately 3.8% of the U.S. population identifies themselves as being something other than heterosexual. That would tell me that 96.2% of the U.S. population finds it wrong for themselves, and that some probably even find it offensive.

I can honestly say that until college it wasn't something that was discussed. However, it is a civil rights battle and isn't included in any text books. I can see the justification of it, but as to being for or opposed, I can't seem to find any info on what exactly is taught in those classrooms for me to form and objective opinion on it. All I find was articles about it going into effect and a bunch of Christian advocates saying it is wrong and what it is going to do. The law has been in effect for a while now, why isn't there any current data on what's being done.

Homosexuality is not the same as heterosexuality, period. That, at the very least is proven by the vast numbers.

Bayard Rustin disagreed with you. He organized the 1963 March on Washington. He was black and he was gay long before either one of those things was cool.

It’s not the government’s responsibility to legislate morality.

Don't be naive. The people legislate morality by way of government all of the time. The right does it. The left does it. Even the libertarians do it. Everyone does it. And it's appropriate to do it. We just don't always agree on what constitutes right and wrong or to what extent we should make wrong illegal.

Some "outliers" on both sides that wish to convert others? What is an outlier there chief? It is an aberration or a deviation from the norm. The entire religious right must be an outlier then. That's one big old anomaly.

That is what I'm referring to, although, admittedly I misread your original quote about it not mattering, which I also disagree with.

You've got a distorted view of religious people.

1. I can honestly say that until college it wasn't something that was discussed. However, it is a civil rights battle and isn't included in any text books. I can see the justification of it, but as to being for or opposed, I can't seem to find any info on what exactly is taught in those classrooms for me to form and objective opinion on it. All I find was articles about it going into effect and a bunch of Christian advocates saying it is wrong and what it is going to do. The law has been in effect for a while now, why isn't there any current data on what's being done.

I'm not gay and I sure don't think it's offensive or wrong for someone to do with as they choose. I must be an outlier huh?

1. It was definitely discussed in the schools I grew up going to. When we studied Shakespeare's Hamlet, one of the questions was "Is Hamlet a homosexual?" I guess it depends on where you go to school.

Point being, homosexuality is not ignored, nor is it vilified. It is being talked about, it is being accepted. Are their "bullies" in school who will pick on a kid for being a perceived gay, yep. Is this any different than a bully picking on a kid for being weaker than the bully or an easy target, nope. This does not mean that we have to teach gay history because of some kids being assholes. Assholes are assholes and this won't change anything.

I'm calling out the gay agenda for what it is--indoctrination. I'm calling a spade a spade. This isn't "evolution" it's a revolution and if you refuse to goose step to their beating drums you too will be called out.

Never, in the history of society, has so few held so much power over so many people. This is the homosexual agenda. 3% of the population telling the other 97% what to think and how to think.

Listen, I'm not saying homosexuals should be persecuted, vilified or belittled, I'm just saying that they are forcing an agenda on me and everyone else who is not a homosexual. I don't think this is right, nor is it fair.

"Exactly" might be a loaded word. I think that approximately 99 out of every 99 people there were marching to call attention to the predicament of African Americans in the U.S. in 1963. Individually he might have been marching for more than that. By the 1970s he was looking for more, that much we know.

Tombstone, you are wrong on at least one point. People can make behavioral choices but people cannot choose their sexual orientation. If you think you can choose who you are attracted to, please try the following experiment: Just for a few hours, and without acting on it, choose to be gay. Just go ahead and decide that you really, really love men. You don't have to actually act on it, but decide that women are repulsive to you and you would far prefer to run your fingers through a man's hair, and caress some man ass, and run your tongue down a man's thighs. Go ahead and decide that you would like to penetrate a man, or maybe even let him penetrate you.

If you are being honest, you will have to admit that you cannot truly make yourself feel this way. You cannot make this decision. You are wired how you are wired. You can choose how to act, but you cannot choose your sexual orientation.

I said 97% doesn't agree with it or finds it offensive. So what I'm saying is the 97% aren't homosexual and don't practice homosexuality. If you disagree with something, you generally don't do it.

As for accepting the homosexual lifestyle, homosexuals can do whatever they want behind closed doors, between consenting adults. What I disagree with is people like you who say I'm wrong for calling them out on their agenda.

Yes, it's a choice. Explain bisexuality if it's not a choice.

Let me help you--you can't explain bisexuality. Neither can the homosexual community.

OK. Some women not only like the penis, but they find other women to be sexually attractive. Those women are awesome and I love them. As a side note, I've heard that some guys will sleep with both women and other men. I don't care about them and I don't want to think about it. But, back to the hotness, bisexual women are great. They are aroused both by guys (like me) and sexy women (the ones I like). They (and by "they" I mean the bisexual women I have known, which is quite a few) didn't choose to be this way. They have always been attracted to both genders and in many cases "played doctor" with both genders as kids. Several of them have had relationships with people of both genders as teens and adults. It's not like they just decide that their bodies (or their minds) are going to react this way. It just happens for them and they roll with it rather than trying to deny who they are. I assume that the bisexual guys (that I'd rather not think about) go through the same thing. Feel better now?

This is a slippery slope and utter BS argument. Bisexuality irritates the progressives because they know that homosexuality is a choice and that bisexuality is the elephant in the room.

1. My "narrow views" sounds an awful lot like "uneducated" or "ignorant" lol. Congrats, you are fully indoctrinated.

So far you sound like the most "indoctrinated" poster on this thread. Perhaps your "indoctrination" is more along the lines of the Phelps family though. ROFL

The bottom line is we get it, you don't like or understand homosexuality. And, if that's not enough, the concept of bisexuality is right up there with quantum physics for you. But I'm sure you'll indicate that you're a NASA scientist focusing on physics and you are a special assistant to the Pope for all matters of science! Try living and let live! It's easy, you just do it. It's like taking a shit, it's not hard to understand you just do it! I'd have said sex but that seems to throw you for a loop, so I stuck with shitting! You do shit, right? Maybe not, you sound like you're a bit backed-up!

Look friend, I don't know how old you are but I'm gray. I grew up in a time where homosexuals were 100% suppressed (unless it was two girls on video doing the deed, then it was all good!) and it was wrong. So as a group (homosexuals) they are doing the one thing they can do to make things right - taking it to court. JFC, all they want is health insurance - but they get fought at every turn! That's laughable! And in the court setting, amongst other things, you have to be very confident that you're right because you have to sell the larger package to a fucking judge. Sorry if your confusing their confidence as being militant!

Next, perhaps you never served, but let me tell you this, when people get militant, other people get hurt. So far there's been little of that. And, I'll opine that if somebody has been getting hurt, it's some gay kid getting his ass kicked by some wannabe tough guys.

I'll also say that I have lesbian neighbors and they are awesome. A beautiful daughter who's as perfect as any other kid, and an awesome son (perhaps the smartest in the GD neighborhood) who I have the pleasure of "indoctrinating" into the Boy Scouts of America. Yeah, and I've enjoyed being THAT guy who made sure he didn't miss out on THAT experience because of his parents lifestyle. LOL, between the BSA and the church that sponsors the troop, the only thing they forgot was the kid, his needs, and what their charter says... Assholes! I guess that makes me militant in your eyes. Well, so be it! I'm as straight as the next straight person, but I'll be dammed if I'm going to let a kid miss out on being a scout!

And don't think the most militant group out there aren't those of you shooting bible passages (directly or indirectly) at the other side. To that group of fellow Christians I say fuck off, and I hope you go to hell! Yeah, in my opinion THEY are the vocal minority, they DON'T speak for the majority of their fellow Christians, and they are grabastic pieces of turtle shit! For purporting to represent a religion based on love, they have more hate in their hearts than blood. They are fuckers, through and through...

So anyway, have a fine day and don't worry, I doubt any gay man or woman will kick your ass at the bus stop!

What rights are you talking about? Again, BS. If you are talking about marriage, it should be a state issue and nothing more. Just like marijuana. The states should vote on it.

The thing is, the gay agenda is so strong that even when a state like CA votes against gay marriage, it still passes. This is because the homosexual agenda moves everything to the courts so that judges decide, not the people.

The "underlying attraction" for these women is based on one thing, looks. These prima donna lesbians only choose to sleep with other physically attractive women. So, they don't sleep with the fat fatties, only the hot hotties. If that's not a "choice" I don't know what is.

You can explain it away but the fact remains this is the quintessential choice. If these women didn't have a choice, they'd sleep with lunch lady and Sam the butcher. And, they'd love it. But they don't. The are particular about who they sleep with. They pick. They choose. They then act. Or, they don't.

What is being gay if it's not acting out your homosexuality? My point was that people choose to act on who they sleep with, or don't sleep with. If a homosexual chooses to sleep with someone of the same gender, then that's a choice. They can be celibate too. Or, they can choose to be with someone of the opposite sex. An unmarried hetero man can choose celibacy. So does this make him gay, because he chooses not to sleep with women? Or is he asexual?

People want to make all of this complicated. They try to explain away homosexuality because most people simply don't understand it. I know there are those who sleep with whomever, whenever and I think that is a choice too.

Huh?

Having sex with your spouse on Wednesday when you're not feeling amorous is a very different thing than we're talking about. Unless you married someone of a gender you're not attracted to, which seems like the worst night in Vegas ever.

Point being, it's a choice. I was trying to be funny about marriage but the fact is that sometimes, people who are married have intimacy even though one person may not be as aroused or excited about it as the other person. But, they work through it together because they are married.

I've already stated that people can choose to act or not act. Choosing who you are attracted to, though, is not a choice. That is hard-wired in and has nothing to do with your actions.

Being celibate does not change a person's sexual orientation. They are still attracted to whoever they were hard-wired to like. People may act against their predispositions based on some circumstance (prison, for example) but that still wouldn't change who they are attracted to.

So you tell me... were you truly attracted to men? Were you able to make that choice?

The "underlying attraction" for these women is based on one thing, looks. These prima donna lesbians only choose to sleep with other physically attractive women. So, they don't sleep with the fat fatties, only the hot hotties. If that's not a "choice" I don't know what is.

You can explain it away but the fact remains this is the quintessential choice. If these women didn't have a choice, they'd sleep with lunch lady and Sam the butcher. And, they'd love it. But they don't. The are particular about who they sleep with. They pick. They choose. They then act. Or, they don't.

Choices. :hmmm:

Ah, so finally you admit that you are not able to choose your sexual orientation (who you are attracted to). Don't feel badly- nobody else can make that choice, either.

Prison is a special circumstance, as I already stated. If a heterosexual man goes to prison, he may choose to have homosexual sex. This doesn't mean that he has suddenly become attracted to men, only that he has decided to have sex with men. What do you think happens when a heterosexual man gets out of prison?

Or maybe there are more homosexuals in prison than heterosexuals.

Not every male inmate in a prison resorts to homosexual sex. Sexual orientation is not a is or is not question. It is a matter of shades. On one end it is exclusively heterosexual and the other end it is exclusively homosexual. In between are vast percentages of bisexuality.

I don't agree with a lot of what Tombstone RJ has been saying, but I think too many defenders of homosexuality gloss over the fact that a choice is involved.

This strand of the thread started when JDiddy said:

There's a whole lot there that we won't agree on, ever. In particular it being a lifestyle choice.

JDiddy is wrong (Shocker, I know). It is a lifestyle choice. It's a choice that reflects an underlying orientation that usually isn't chosen (although sometimes, to be honest, it is), but it's a choice nonetheless. A married man who encounters a flirtatious, hot female stranger might face real temptation to cheat based on urges they can't avoid having, but they have a choice about whether or not to give in to those urges.

Tombstone goes too far if he argues that the underlying orientation is a choice, but I don't think that's what his original argument was and I think he's backed off of the underlying orientation argument now that he realizes that he's taken it too far.

No, go all the way back to page 7 and post #91 and see what I told you:

I disagree. If the homosexual movement wasn't so militant then people like me wouldn't be calling them out on their agenda. But don't kid yourself, they definitely have an agenda and that agenda is to make homosexuality as normal as heterosexuality. Anyone who disagrees will be labeled as a bigot. The homosexual/progressive agenda knows that name calling works and if you don't prescribe to their agenda, you too will be labelled as a bigot or as "uneducated and ignorant". This is the same formula that has been used throughout history to get people to capitulate--belittle them and force them to agree. People can't choose their ethnicity, but they can choose their lifestyle.

lol, so predictable. Now this "educated" poster will lecture me on how ignorant I am and anyone else who doesn't buy into their agenda. This is what is known as indoctrination. Simply because I disagree with posters like DenverChief, I'm labelled as ignorant or uneducated. Fact is, nothing I've said or pointed out has been refuted. Nada. It's all regurgitated from the homosexual and progressive leaders, nothing more, nothing less.

I think there are a few issues being clouded together.

Some folks are arguing that gay/lesbian activity is a choice, but they're citing examples of one-time encounters. Of course any one time encounter is a choice, but that's not the issue that most other folks are discussing.

The key issue is whether there's a natural preference. I would argue that most people have a natural preference for one gender or the other. For most people it's the opposite gender, but for some people it's the same gender, and neither scenario is a choice. It's hard-wired. It's possible that they could go against that natural preference in an unusual situation, which is a choice that they make, but that doesn't change their natural preference.

I would also argue that a large proportion of people also have a non-zero interest in both genders. I'll bet if you could get a true and honest accounting, probably 30 percent of the population are attracted to both genders, even if it's 99 percent one gender and 1 percent the other. Since women have more societal permission to express this interest, we see it more in women (rowr). And there is research that shows that it may be more common in women (rowr), but then of course that's to be expected since, well, women are hot.

A pedophile is expected to suppress their urges because of the harm it does their victims. Homosexuals are expected to suppress their urges because people think it's gross. The real discussion should be what possible, demonstrable harm does a homosexual having the same rights as anyone else pose to a society or it's citizens.

I have yet to see anything but, at best, selective reasoning and, at worst, flat out bigotry to support the idea that gay married couples pose a threat to anyone. The same goes for the perceived threat of "normalizing" homosexuality.

I think the prevalence of porn definitely has an effect on people's sexual behavior and since most heterosexual males, who find beautiful women sexually attractive, like to watch porn with woman on woman, I think this definitely rubs off on women in our general society. Fact is, more women are watching porn and they are seeing this stuff, hence, they think it's ok to do. But I seriously, seriously doubt that many of these prima donna lesbians would exist if it were not for the huge amount of porn on the interwebzz.

Again, my opinion. You are free to call me an idiot for pointing this out.

Wow, hey look everyone, didn't I tell you the progressive agenda's tactics, please look at DenverChief's predictable post:



No, go all the way back to page 7 and post #91 and see what I told you:



lol, so predictable. Now this "educated" poster will lecture me on how ignorant I am and anyone else who doesn't buy into their agenda. This is what is known as indoctrination. Simply because I disagree with posters like DenverChief, I'm labelled as ignorant or uneducated. Fact is, nothing I've said or pointed out has been refuted. Nada. It's all regurgitated from the homosexual and progressive leaders, nothing more, nothing less.

Just had to point this out.

So, wait. You complain early on that people call you uneducated based on your opinions, you continue in the same thread to spew uneducated opinions, and then you call it a victory when someone points out how uneducated your opinions are?

Well done. :clap:

I think there are a few issues being clouded together.

Some folks are arguing that gay/lesbian activity is a choice, but they're citing examples of one-time encounters. Of course any one time encounter is a choice, but that's not the issue that most other folks are discussing.

The key issue is whether there's a natural preference. I would argue that most people have a natural preference for one gender or the other. For most people it's the opposite gender, but for some people it's the same gender, and neither scenario is a choice. It's hard-wired. It's possible that they could go against that natural preference in an unusual situation, which is a choice that they make, but that doesn't change their natural preference.

I would also argue that a large proportion of people also have a non-zero interest in both genders. I'll bet if you could get a true and honest accounting, probably 30 percent of the population are attracted to both genders, even if it's 99 percent one gender and 1 percent the other. Since women have more societal permission to express this interest, we see it more in women (rowr). And there is research that shows that it may be more common in women (rowr), but then of course that's to be expected since, well, women are hot.

This.

I also believe there are situations where a man can be attracted to sex with another man due to it's extreme Taboo nature (stress from the thought of the encounter can actually be misinterpreted as arousal) but yet not be physically attracted to men and still have a preference for women.

I call this the "Gochiefs" effect.
