survivors of sexual assault are too deeply traumatized to be able to speak out and pursue justice until decades later Yeah that's true. It's not right to blame a sex assault victim for waiting a long time to speak up. But if they can't prove they were assaulted they can't prove it. Burden of proof is still on the victim and the longer they wait the harder it is to prove anything. Witnesses get old and die, memories fade, etc. --- I don't hate people, people hate me. ...

i'm actually really surprised michigan is so lax on this, only giving victims until 19 to sue. that seems like a get out of jail free card for abusers.

Where was all this fucking concern when the clergy were diddling kids like it was going out of style?
Oh yeah, "here's money, never talk about this again. We're going to make the situation right... by quietly transferring the offender to somewhere new where he can do this all over again to a whole new group of kids" --- PSN VectorChaos http://i.imgur.com/ftMERkZ.jpg XBL Vector Chaos http://i.imgur.com/10hWZ95.png http://i.imgur.com/MZMOLx0.jpg http://i.imgur.com/R2jRl8F.jpg ...
