Maryland schools would teach kids that boys are presumed guilty of rape under approved bill

Well, at least it is teaching them some truth. The boys will be presumed guilty until proven innocent. After that, they will continue to be presumed guilty for the rest of their lives.

It was amended to give county boards of education the discretion to decide whether to include the affirmative-consent curriculum in sex-ed classes below 5th grade. At 5th grade and above, it’s required. The bill will take effect in July if signed into law:

Advocates say the guideline could help prevent rape and ensure justice for victims. But critics say that in practice, affirmative consent is unrealistic and amounts to a “guilty until proven innocent” standard that could be unconstitutional.

Oddly enough, the House approved a bill the same day preventing colleges from “including questions about criminal history” on admissions applications or withdrawing admissions offers if students admit to a conviction.

That means children would be taught they are presumed guilty if accused of rape, but a subsequent conviction won’t keep them out of college.

WTF is going on anymore?

Talk about normalizing rape. Jesus

Except being found "guilty" in a campus kangaroo court is not a criminal conviction.

Tricky, eh?
