people celebrating the florida law allowing the death penalty for sexual assault have me so sick rn. like you guys really do not think deeper into an issue at all. not only is the law specifically designed to target trans communities, but it does literally nothing but increase the risk for victims of sexual assault. soooo many children already do not come forward about abuse because they feel guilty about getting their abuser in trouble (and the abuser will specifically guilt them into silence by discussing the potential punishments they may face), which will only get significantly worse if death is on the table. it also means families will be more inclined to handle incidences of abuse “in house,” because they also do not want to have the perpetrator, who is also likely a family member or close friend, killed based on an accusation. plus it just provides greater incentive for the perpetrator to kill their victim in order to prevent anyone from testifying against them. giving the government increased power to kill its citizens without consequence is not and has never been the solution. please utilize your critical thinking skills
and people going “oh dw the Supreme Court has already ruled you can’t use the death penalty in cases of sexual assault” I promise you that is not a solid or reliable argument whatsoever
In honor of the 10th Anniversary, I have a question for the fandom. What was your favorite memory of the past ten years? It could be something that happened on the show, BTS stuff, interviews or articles, fandom shenanigans, fandom meltdowns. Let’s take a trip down memory lane. Share away!
Yes meeting so many amazing people and lifelong friends. Another highlight for me was watching Beauty with the Texas Rumbelle fam. I’ll never forget all of us crying together watching the montage scene 😅😁❤️
This fandom also gave me so many opportunities to travel across the globe ☺️
