with the crowd that watched that girl getting raped for 2.5 hours at a school dance in California. Because she is over 14 they can not be charged???? WTF???? They say more than 20 were witnesses. I'm just overcome about it all.

WTF...what they mean they cant be bloodywell charged! They are just as guilty as the actual rapists as far as i'm concerned..

I ask you....WHO could stand by and watch someone get raped....certainly no normal person!

It's just confirming the lack of consequence.

Just a thought, all those "witnesses" should be called up to bear witness against the actual rapists. Because they are not on trial, they can be named and shamed.
