After former Stanford University student Brock Turner was found guilty of sexual assault, his childhood friend penned a letter to the California judge who would decide his fate. Leslie Rasmussen, 20, asked Judge Aaron Persky, “Where do we draw the line and stop worrying about being politically correct every second of the day and see that rape on campuses isn’t always because people are rapists?”
Anonymous Hades's insight:
The following is my answer to a question asked by Ms. Rasmussen, which was, “Where do we draw the line and stop worrying about being politically correct every second of the day and see that rape on campuses isn’t always because people are rapists?”
"Where do we draw the line on sexual assault? We start with our personal space and end by holding true to the maxim: 'My rights end where your space begins.' Brock Turner chose to rape a young lady instead of helping her. No one is saying he had to assist her, which would have been nice, but he didn't have to rape her.
Mr. Turner made the conscious choice to rape a vulnerable stranger, which for him was more a crime of opportunity than anything else. He saw someone vulnerable enough to victimize and, just like any other sexual predator, that's exactly what he did.
Also, the term 'politically correct' is inappropriate here. It should be replaced with the term 'good character,' which is something that Mr. Turner was obviously lacking when he made the decision to rape his victim.
Finally, irrespective of who one rapes, or where that rape occurs, or why one chose to rape another: Rape is a crime, and anyone who rapes another person is a rapist."

Anonymous Hades's insight:
It is always sad to say goodbye to youthful people with lives full of promise, and Holly Bradbury deserved much better than she received at the hands of an abusive ex-boyfriend. May she rest in peace.
