This while her horrible boss at McDonald's allows it to go on although the teen begs her for mercy.

It really happened. And a whole bunch of people were so despicable, stupid and immoral that it boggles the mind.

And the real perpetrator walked off completely free.

NOT...an isolated incident... (http://ledger.southofboston.com/article ... news02.txt)

Outrageous actions by some, and inactions by others!

What I don't agree with in your posting is the concept of using nullification as a punishment.

I agree with BudleyBear.

The punishment for the perpetrator should be the same for any sexual offender or terrorist: put them on their knees and put a .38 through the back of their head.

This was a humiliating and heinous crime; however, what kind of dumb-ass is going to fall for this bullshit? What kind of retard lacks the strength of character or is so damn stupid as to allow it to happen?

The poor girl was just a kid -- children are taught right from the start to submit to authority, that grown-ups make the rules, that the rules aren't fair and don't have to be explained, etc. That's why adults abusing their power over children is such a serious matter. Kids will go along with it, they'll obey what they're told, they'll keep it a secret. Children trust adults and rely on them to be moral guides. It's hard to shake that off, no matter how obvious it is that the adults in question are scumbags

That's why I'm in favour of carry-concealed-weapon permits for kids -- they need to defend themselves more than anyone.

Aside... it's weird that people think death will is a good way to deal with sex offenders. Aside from the fact that even murder rarely warrants the death penalty, and that sexual assault is so much less serious than murder, doesn't killing sex offenders just give them an easy out? Putting them in prison, where they get to live in fear, pain, isolation, and abject misery ... that's far better punishment than the peace of death. Making them take their own lives would be so much more satisfying. Now life sentences for sex offenders, I can get behind that. It's weird that America doesn't have the "dangerous offender" designation for criminals like Canada; it's probably the only area in the entire Canadian justice system that is MORE strict than its American counterpart.

Well,

Not a punishment as such.

You see, it is a bit like a driver's license...

...it is a privledge, not a right...

...we take cars away from drunk drivers, and there is little difference in principle, at least...

Taylor,

Victims are not to blame. This girl...so innocent and so trusting...she IS lucky to be alive. I have seen people so scared as to allow this sort of thing to happen to them. Taylor, not everyone is as strong, wise and street-smart as you may be. Young people look at authority differently if they are raised by their parents to have respect...

It is terrible, but she can live through this.

However, McDonald's needs to give her several million, at least...as if one could put a price tag on doing this to somebody...

...the assholes...:realpisse

Yeah, I have to admit that I may have been a little harsh on the kid. We've all been young and done stupid things. I have been duly chastised.

I have to disagree on the company paying the kid because the manager was a scumbag. The manager should be held accountable. He should be fired and I'm certain there is some charge that could be place against him.

As for keeping people in prison for live verses execution. I couldn't disagree more on the purpose and effectiveness of execution. When a person commits a murder or rape, etc., they have shown that they cannot live in a civilized society and are a continuing threat to the life and well being of honest citizens. We are under no obligation to house, feed and clothe them for the rest of their natural lives as they will continue to be a danger should they ever be released or escape. An executed offender will NEVER commit a crime again and they are removed as a potential future offender and are no longer an economic waste of money.

The Code of Hammurabi had only one punishment. There were NO repeat offenders.

Taylor,

..No, not you, too. no corporal punishment on your privates...

Sure the manager should be held accountable...

...however, McDonald's needs to be made an example...

...corporate entities suffer from a lack of ability to accept their share of responsibility...the manager was the corporate represenative. Maybe they should be more careful regarding the IDIOTS that they hire in management. Corporations are NOT people. However, they DO hurt REAL PEOPLE.

...of course, the franchise owner needs to lose the franchise, also.

...Perhaps the franchise rights or their financial equavalent should be given to the girl...

...she deserves financial compensation...

Greenback salve solves everything? Make an example of McDonalds?

I don't think the corporation has any liability in this situation and besides, what are the damages?

Just handing out cash isn't going to solve a thing.

I agree that the manager should lose his job and perhaps some counseling (if needed) for the girl should be paid for but making someone rich when they are partially responsible is just plain wrong.

Taylor,

You carry a big stick, so what should we do to a person who breaks the speed limit? By your rule, loose his licence for life. cut off the left hand, cease his car and give him a hefty fine. We much teach these people a lesson, after all if they got caught speeding once there bound to do it again.

I am not sure what perfect world you live in but maybe a history lesson would help. When any society has been that perfect bad things have happened.
