Not too sure where to put this, I am so disgusted with the Canada's Supreme Court's ruling that allows people to use "extreme intoxication" as a valid defense against rape and other violent acts.

Canada’s top court says voluntary extreme intoxication a defence in violent crimes | Globalnews.ca

The Supreme Court of Canada ruling, called R. v. Brown, means an accused may be able to escape conviction if they can prove they were too intoxicated to control their actions.

The British Army have it right on this. If you thump someone whist pissed, there are two items on the charge sheet. (AFB 252, tell me that the guy who allocated Aldershot it's phone identifier number didn't have a sense of humour )

1. being drunk.
2. Thumping someone.

If too many people are getting drunk and thumping someone, it is declared a Prevalent Offence and the punishment goes up by 50%.

I think it’s bad when I just think of all the women and children having to deal with domestic violence from men who have been drinking.

That’s going to be the first defense rolled out.

I thought that Canada was a sensible place.

The Archbishop of San Fransisco has banned Nancy Pelosi from taking communion because she's being to outspoken on Roe v. Wade.

Archbishop Cordileone on barring Nancy Pelosi from Communion: ‘I cannot in my conscience allow the situation to continue.’

“I really would prefer not to do this,” the archbishop of San Fransisco told Gloria Purvis. “But I cannot in my conscience allow the situation to continue and cause this scandal.”

oddly not to defend the catholic church but the last time a us bishop tried this the pope remarked

"be a pastor first"

when the pope is calling you a reactionist asshole

 

[Nylock]

"I really would prefer not to do this...." the typical opening statement of someone abusing their position and being quite comfortable in doing so....

American Catholic clergy seem a bit isolated from the Holy See. Don't know why.

I never understood what the Holy See meant. Is it like the Eye Of Sauron?

Dunno I'm not even a layman, but I think it means Papal authority/jurisdiction.

Years back, when the people of Ireland were reducing the influence of the Church slowly but surely... it was noticed in the more conservative Irish-American circles over in the US. The comments sections in various Irish online organs were awash with threats from Catholics of Irish heritage - how they'd not visit the old country anymore or ever, because their great great great grandaddy was spinning in his grave at the idea of those heathen commies, changing Ireland forever, etc.

Remembering one fella who complained that "even your mountains are disappointing" on a discussion about same sex marriage

The religious folk in the US take a keen interest in issues like abortion etc over in Ireland, and not just the Catholic right.

So how else do bishops and priests ensure their children are born without an abortion ban

Like Sauron but with Smaug's mountain full of gold.

This is the same old shit that gets trotted out when any political group loses a battle - they're always coming for the kids next.
Usually there is some nutty fringe group that can be pointed to that supports whatever paranoid fantasy is being pushed.

apart from the nutty fridge group does not appear to be losing the abortion battle

Why can't these people just keep their godly bullshit to themselves? By all means live by whatever rules you like but why do they insist that everyone else has to live like that too?

Reading that just makes me want to weep.

Nutty fringe groups like the Republicans in the Missouri legislature?

Missouri state Sen. Paul Wieland, one of the Republicans who led that effort, explained his position this way: “The bottom line is there is only one time something definitively happens and that’s the moment of conception. Once that happens, anything that happens should not be state funded.”

Or perhaps you feel you can dismiss the Idaho state rep as a lone nutter?

This month, Idaho state Rep. Brent Crane, Republican chair of the powerful House State Affairs Committee, said he would hold hearings on legislation banning emergency contraceptives and possibly IUDs as well.

These people really are theocrats trying to control women's bodies in the name of their shithouse God, I don't know where you get off dismissing this kind of thing like you do.

They see it as their 'Christian duty' or some such.

And I bet none of them can see they have anything in common with the Taliban.

The USA is becoming a very scary place indeed.
