Alvin Greene indicted on felony porn charge

[Jhhnn]

showing somebody porn that doesn't want to see it should be a crime and apparently is.

OK, maybe, but that doesn't mean it should be a *felony*...

The woman in question apparently was 19 at the time of the alleged incident, and unless there are witnesses or Alvin confessed, it's just a he said/ she said, anyway... making the whole idea of prosecution at this time entirely suspect... the whole thing supposedly took place last november...

I don't think he was ever required to even post bail, which shows just how seriously the S Carolina establishment took the whole thing to be, up 'til now... This doesn't exactly enhance their credibility...

 

[waggy]

wow she is hot. gotta admit i haven't seen any of her stuff.

 

[hal2kilo]

Your confidence in Mr. Greene is premature.

Damn, and I had such high hopes.

 

[CallMeJoe]

Didn't he win election to represent the democrats in South Carolina in the general? but still, it's an old story.

He has not yet been elected to any office; he was nominated. "Elected" is customarily reserved for the winner of the office.

Admittedly a minor point, but I have a reputation to maintain as a Pompous Ass. It isn't easy.

Well she certainly isn't shy about showing her "stuff." :awe:

What is the definition of Felony Porn?

 

[Lemon law]

Lets look at it the other way in terms of the virgin ears theory. Was Greene the first to expose some nineteen year old girl to debauchery and perversion?

Maybe in some yesteryear Mayberry fantasy, the only way the youth of this nation learned about human anatomy was from the National Geographic, but I will bet 99.5 v .5 that you can't find a 14 year old teenage girl or boy in the USA who have not found better and more graphic sources on the internet.

Alvin Greene the root of all evil, I don't think so, at best ole Alvin in rascal number 123.

Its so obvious piasabird, felony porn is a democrat running for political office in a red red State. Like I mean, how obscene can you get? And black to boot, it then becomes especially clear that the only possible agenda can be corrupting all of Southern White womanhood.

 

[Binarycow]

haha good luck with that. That video where Sasha Grey takes 3 dicks at one time is totally art, man.

Didn't know who she was, so went googling her. Almost got caught by my wife but glad that I clicked on this thread. That skinny girl can really take a pounding :sneaky:

Not just southern white women, but white women everywhere, regardless of appearances, education or social status. Black men crave white pussy, even if it's poor, stupid, fat and ugly. Everybody knows this....

It's their way of getting reparations for slavery... yeh, that's it... uhh-huh...

Jim deMint will probably be running ads to that effect, or his supporters will, thru air time purchased by Panamanian bearer corporations... It's free speech, after all- all you can pay for, that is...

Clearly this is race-motivated;

The democrats don't want to lose the race and a guy saying he will bring jobs back by having action-figures made of himself will do that for them.

 

[Lemon law]

Normally there is no way that Alvin Greene or any democrat could win a major State wide race in a red red State, but is Greene can make total monkeys out of the prosecutors over a clearly politically motivated porn charge, Greene might just stand a chance of winning.

As we may recall from the trial of the Chicago 7, one of the defendants went on to have a fairly long political career.

After all, 2010 is the year in which all establishment politicians are deeply mistrusted,
and its possible to become a folk hero by thumbing your nose against government.

There's thumbing your nose and then there's lunar-beam crazy...

Alvin Greene couldn't make monkeys out monkeys - his very thickness would make them spontaneously evolve. Alvin Greene probably couldn't pick out a monkey in a line-up of Alvin Greene bobble-head action figures. And please! Clearly politically motivated porn charge? The man was arrested before anyone had any idea he would even run for office, let alone that Democrat primary voters would find him less repugnant that their other choices (I'm guessing because he couldn't afford any adverts to demonstrate Democrat policies.) He has merely been indicted on those charges, which if sufficient evidence exists is the grand jury's responsibility. (Grand juries are non-political by definition.)

Democrats would be better served by admitting that they totally blew one rather than schizophrenically bouncing between "Republican plant!" and "Republican persecution!" Luckily for those of us amused by this Democrats are largely congenitally incapable of admitting that any Democrat is less than stellar, so our circus is likely to continue at least through the election (and probably the inevitable cries of voter disenfranchisement and voting fraud.)

The possible defect in the werepossim statement of, "Alvin Greene couldn't make monkeys out monkeys", lies in the fact that making monkeys out of the judge and prosecution is not the job of Greene, that is a job for his attorney.

The late William Kunsler was probably the best at doing that, but there are plenty of other attorney's who might like to take such a case just to make a name for themselves.

As for the democratic party in the red State, they ran no credible candidates and that is why Greene won the nomination for the seat. Ole Alvin might as well go for broke, if he tries to run as an establishment straight guy he is sure to lose.

Oh, a great defense lawyer might well get the charges dismissed or declared unconstitutional of appeal, but that won't help Greene. Best thing Greene could do would be to speak for ten minutes and then say "Now that you know me - how much harm could I possibly do? I probably won't even be able to find the floor, let alone figure out how to vote." The "how much harm could I do?" meme might play well this year when both parties together often don't poll over 50% approval.

What a somewhat idiotic thing to say werepossim. "Oh, a great defense lawyer might well get the charges dismissed or declared unconstitutional of appeal, but that won't help Greene."

Maybe you need to read some books about the trial of the Chicago 7, when you have a prosecution citing stupid and indefensible laws, the only viable defense strategy is to put the stupid law on trial. The more the judge and prosecution over reacts, the better it is for the defense. And the more of a media circus that Greene can make it, the better off he will be, not only in beating a unsustainable charge, but in his election chances in general.

Even if Greene gets convicted, it can't possibly stand on appeal. Which is exactly what happened at the Chicago 7 trial. You are thinking inside the box when the defense is going to think outside the box, trust me, that is how it will play out.

It may help him with his trial, but he stands little if any chance of unseating Senator DeMented. Not even South Carolina is ready to elect Senator "GO!"

I agree that Greene has almost zero chance of winning the election no matter what.

 

[Darwin333]

Geez. She was a 19 year old college student, they were in class, or a study hall, and he showed her some porn on his laptop. This is such old news, hell it's from well before he even got elected.

Wait a minute. Showing porn to a 19 year old girl is a crime? shit.

 

[Tom]

You missed the important part. Showing porn to someone that doesn't want to see it.

I find it hard to believe that anyone thinks that is acceptable behavior.

btw, my opinion has nothing to do with politics and I'm not commenting about this particular incident which I know nothing about.

link? I'd like to be the judge on that...

 

[GuitarDaddy]

So he tried to blackmail his ex with some old nude photos per spideys instructions in the L&R thread and it bit him in the ass

Gotta agree, what a small mouth you have grandma Sasha Gray, but the concept that Greene's 19 year old accuser was a porn virgin before she met ole Alvin defies any logic.

That days when depraved and curious teens got their anatomy lessons from National geographic ended 30 or more ago.

The fact that Sasha can take three at once defies any logic. Most of us will settle for our wife taking only one of us at once.
