The practice of offering up virgins goes back for hundreds of years and the Virginia Democrats are all for continuing that practice in the 21st century. In 2019, a Democratic legislature and the Democratic Governor Ralph Northam decided that offering up young school girls for the carnal pleasure of schoolboys should not be a police matter except in the most extreme cases. They passed a law that says that schools are not required to notify police on all sexual assaults.
Democratic Sen. Jennifer McClellan, who sponsored the 2020 law, said:
“It was disproportionately children of color and children with disabilities who were getting caught up in the school-to-prison pipeline for things that could be handled through the discipline process or through intervention with the children involved.”
Oh, so the fact that too many Blacks were being arrested for sexual assault necessitates looking the other way? Maybe we should quit punishing fraud because it creates a school-to-prison road for conmen? How about blessing the penalty for murder because it disproportionately targets killers?
What exactly is McClellan saying? That she thinks Blacks are all sexual deviants? Sounds pretty racist to me and besides people will commit any crime they know they can get away with.
Currently, Republicans are looking to do away with that law. But, they are being blocked by Democrats and RINOs. In Loudoun County, Virginia we saw the result of that policy after a boy in a skirt sexually assaulted a young girl and instead of notifying the police, they transferred the boy to a new school, where he assaulted another girl.
The largest teachers union in the state, the Virginia Education Association, also supported Northam’s law while pushing the “school-to-prison pipeline” idea. “It’s time we move away from a one-size-fits-all approach to reporting and tap into the experience and expertise of our front-line school principals,” then-President Jim Livingston said.
Other Senate Democrats could not be reached for comment, including Barbara Favola and Jennifer Boysko, who represent parts of Loudoun and Fairfax counties.
Elizabeth Lancaster, a Virginia family law attorney who represented both girls assaulted in Loudoun County, which The Daily Wire first reported, said in an interview that if the law is repealed, law enforcement might receive many calls on incidents that wouldn’t make sense to pursue. But she added that when you give schools discretion to choose what is reported, things can get swept under the rug.
