CLINTON, South Carolina (AP) -- The arrest of two women teachers on
charges of having sex with their male students has brought cries of
lingering racism in one of South Carolina's most conservative counties
and evoked some of the South's oldest and deepest-seated racial
taboos.

Both women are white. The boys -- six in all -- are black.

Some of the blacks who make up more than a quarter of Laurens County's
70,000 residents are upset over the handling of the two cases,
particularly the release of the teachers on bail.

They say the cases reflect the way crimes by whites against blacks in
the segregated South were treated less seriously than other offenses,
and blacks who leveled accusations against whites were less likely to
be believed.

"If this had been black teachers, they would not be out of jail right
now," said Corinnie Young, a 49-year-old bookstore employee who is
black.

Some blacks shudder to think what would have happened if the teachers
were black men and the students were white girls.

"I can assure you if it were an African American male who committed
such an offense against a white female, history shows us that the
charges, the punishment and the sentencing would be totally
different," said state NAACP president Lonnie Randolph. "The system
ain't blind when the perpetrator is an African American male or female
or when the victim is a white female."

prosecuting women for having sex with teenage males is a modern-day version of witch trials.

Anyone who is now or was before a teenaged male knows with certainty that calling the boys "victims" is absurd.

In reality we should put up statutes of the women and treat them like heroines.

That's the truth and everyone who is or ever was a teenaged male knows it, but then those prosecuting witches probably, in many cases, also know that what they were doing was evil. But went along with the social pressure. Just like know we men know punishing these women is deeply evil but just keep quiet about it.

Oh yea ... they'd pretty much lynch black males for diddling
their lily-white teenaged daughters ! Maybe more than "pretty
much". There are a few spots in the USA where it's still 1860.

I guess the daughters are "ruined" now, unfit to be dutiful
white housewives for beerbellied gawd-fearin' pickup-driving
rednecks. You'd never know when they might sneak off, looking
for some more of that blacksnake, presenting you with a bouncing
brown baby at the maternity hospital - oh the SHAME of it all !!!
Your fellow Bubbahs will laugh behind your back and crack jokes
in public, question the purity of your aryan ancestry, question
whether you "measure up" ! A dixieland nightmare !!! :-)

By the way, have you noticed that the more illegal they make it
for teachers to diddle their students the MORE diddling seems
to go on ? Now it's the REALLY forbidden fruit, and thus all
the more tempting. There can be a point where laws become
counterproductive and that's clearly been exceeded in this particular category.
