I know you think this is some kind of witty parody of liberal tolerance, but , in fact, you are ridiculing an attitude that does not actually exist in reality. Satire only works if it has some basis in truth. This has none.

First, this is obviously so heinous that nobody could condone it.  
The mother and the rapist should be subjected to the maximum penalty available.

Second, I wonder why the word _hired_ was put in single quotes.  
Did no money exchange hands? That was confusing to this semi-middle-aged guy.

Finally, the following quote from the linked article is … interesting:

> [@](#):
>
> Prominent Khelovedu literature author Ngwako Molewa said the woman should have known better that children came from God and not from malicious thoughts or human ability. Molewa said no matter how badly one may need to be pregnant and how many times you have sex, it would still remain the will of God for one to fall pregnant.

I know, I know…I piggybacked from the **EllisDee** pitting thread, and I figured it was like my civic duty or something.

Ben is becoming to rape on the SDMB like “You know who else killed grannies? Hitler, that’s who!”

Its not such a bad thing…we’ll all share laughs about it years from now when we’re old and the Bengals have finally won a Super Bowl…

I read that as a sort of idiomatic expression, related to the way the speaker learned to extemporize in English.

So, in a sense, it _is_ South Africa. per my reading, anyway.

I must admit, that was pretty good. Thank you. so many people around here have no talent for this whatsoever. I am truly grateful.  
On review I see that **miss elizabeth** and I agree on this. See that, toots, we are simpatico. Except for the fact that you are a dishonorable piece of shit. But other than that, nuzzle up, babe. Two peas in a pod. Smooooooch.

Well, depends on whether the rape was ‘forcible’ enough.

It’s the only logical fallacy acceptable on the SDMB: _[And you are lynching negroes](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_you_are_lynching_Negroes)_.

Kids these days. They want to skip right past the pillaging and go straight to the rape. No one has the self respect to do things properly anymore.
