I imagine there are 17 year old males the length and breadth of Oklahoma thinking now that all they have to do is get a girl drunk to the point of incoherence and they won't be prosecuted for whatever they do to her.
Da fuck is wrong with this court?

bold mine.
This. Exactly. April is Domestic Violence and Sexual Violence Awareness month. This is the largest part of the campaigning that organizations who help victims deal with domestic and sexual violence and abuse try to make a point of saying. If there is NO consent, it IS rape. Period. If you aren't conscious or alert enough to make that decision, then you aren't conscious or alert enough to consent. That doesn't give anyone - man or woman - cart blanch to assault you because you are unable to speak up for yourself.
