Comments: Weiner strikes me as the kind of snake who would save up incriminating material on others as a useful bargaining chip for getting out of jams; just another type of sleazeball found in the Clinton entourage. It will be amusing if the Clinton mafia is finally destroyed by one of their proteges; a corrupt creature brought on board because they thought him a useful tool in furthering one of their lesser deceptions, a beard for Hillary’s mistress.
When I teach a criminal justice course I will tell my students that the original L&O is entertaining and not a totally bad depiction of reality, although there’s still a lot of nonsense inserted for dramatic effect, e.g., the courtroom proceedings would result in instant disbarment for most lawyers.. The spinoffs, particularly, SVU, are total crap, full of sensationalism, having almost no contact with reality, and spinning a lot of SJW nonsense. The cops and lawyers both would go to prison in real life for some of the nonsense in the scripts. I watched one episode in its entirety and since then have seen SVU only when forced to, e.g., when visiting with a friend whose idiot wife is addicted.
* I am convinced that one of the biggest factors in creating the current “Rape Hysteria-Hoax” environment has been Law & Order: SVU. The show is wildly popular amongst women, and its first-run ratings do not show it’s real reach: women (especially those on their periods) will sit and watch a five or ten hour marathon on USA/Netflix/DVD on a Saturday or Sunday and have their heads filled with so much nonsensical, hysterical, outlandish b.s. rape-stories presented as “ripped from the headlines” (i.e. as true) that it warps their world view. (I have known several women from very different walks of life and ages who do this regularly, and if you doubt it, bring up SVU in your next conversation with any woman and she will tell you she’s a huge fan.)
If men binge-watched pornography in such lengthy sessions, we’d think something seriously wrong with them. Well, this is just victim-porn for girls.
SVU goes beyond most female-centered, sensationalized drama by almost always having the setup of blamelessly-innocent, treacly victim (almost always female) and Evil White Male baddie who is both 1) well over the top; and 2) fabulously Machiavellian at hiding his tracks and protecting himself in/from the system. And the leads continuously repeat how no matter what, the woman is not at fault. If you wonder how young women can think they can walk around half-naked and drunk and go home with a guy and agree to have sex with him and STILL claim it’s rape, SVU has to be a culprit in destroying any sense of responsibility or agency in them.
If the availability of 24-7 internet pornography can warp men in a bad way, I think SVU and its ilk have done the same in many women. Everything about that show makes me sick.
