Because I publish a number of articles here on my PEAKD channel about the injustices of the statutory-rape laws in the United States and people who partake in discussions about it seem to bring up the topic of prison rape quite often, I thought that I would do an article about prison rape and what I think should be done about it.
Self-proclaimed child advocates may crack jokes about how men who mess with jailbait get forcibly sodomized in prison, but I don't think any of them would find it funny if it were to happen to them or a loved one of theirs. It only goes to show you how callous these self-proclaimed child advocates really are and how they don't really care about the youth of our nation or of the world. They only make light of prison rape to look for inventive ways to promote their pedophile-panic propaganda.
Here in the United States, sexual violence behind bars has been an ongoing problem for decades, perhaps for over a century. Prison rapists like LaMark Moore have gotten on camera to brag about all the men that they have raped in prison.
Would you believe that this same piece of human scourge has been released from prison, and he walks the streets a free man ready to rape and sodomize any other man that comes into his pathway? To the best of my knowledge, he doesn't even have to register as a sex offender.
I am no fan of the sex-offender registry, but it makes no sense that LaMark Moore doesn't have to register as a sex offender despite that he openly admitted on camera that he had raped a number of inmates. Also, he could be living in your community.
LaMark Moore should not have been sitting in front of a camera, bragging about all the men he violated in prison. He should have been sitting on death row instead.
Even though I may not be a major fan of President George W. Bush, I still have to commend that his enactment of the Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003 was definitely a step in the right direction for everyone whose lives have been touched by this abomination in one way or another. Unfortunately, our lawmakers have a long way to go before this problem is completely stamped out.
1. Prison Rape For "Statutory Rape." Fact Or Fiction?
The Donta Show Network
As you surf around YouTube and watch videos about the topic of prison rape, it becomes clear that anyone who is convicted of sexually molesting a prepubescent child under the age of 11 is not going to be well-received by his inmates, to say the least. I'm not here to dispute that fact. I won't be giving any pity parties for someone who rapes toddlers, gets locked up, and suffers the consequences of his actions at the hands of prison rapists.
Nonetheless, there still remains this one pressing question. What about someone who goes to prison for having an illegal consensual relationship with a teenager who is too young to vote but is well aware that he or she can walk away from the sexual involvement any time they want?
Every YouTube video has a different story to tell about anyone who goes to prison on a statutory-rape conviction, so to speak. I have a mouthful to voice about it myself.
There is a YouTuber named Donta who has a YouTube channel named The Donta Show Network. The concern I have about this ex-convict is that he buys too readily into all of the pedophile-panic propaganda floating around out there. He's proof in the pudding that prison life may make someone more streetwise than the average person, but it won't necessarily make them more intelligent than everyone else.
In a video below, Donta claims that a man has been serving a 20-year prison sentence for what he words as "praying on a child." First of all, Donta got the spelling of "prey" wrong. "Praying on a child" is something religious rather than criminal. Second of all, Donta refers to this alleged "victim" as a young adult who wasn't legally capable of consent but consenting to a relationship with an older man anyhow.
In a nutshell, it appears that this "victim" was really a teenager rather than a prepubescent child; and I do put the word "victim" in quotation marks inasmuch as I don't believe that he really was one. The name of the older man who went to prison for getting involved with this young man is Paul. In any event, watch the video below.
The Law And The Facts Appear To Disagree Whether Paul Is A Child Predator
A couple of the YouTubers in the comments section of this same video posted that the "victim" wasn't really a victim inasmuch as he was 16 years old and had to have known what he was doing. Many of them agree with me that if this teenage boy had the audacity and the courage to blackmail and extort Paul into giving him money, then he really has no right to call himself a victim in the first place.
The convicts who gang-raped Paul are lesser people than Paul is, because it is likely that they would have raped and sodomized an underage boy if one had been locked up with them; and there have been stories about boys as young as 12 years old being locked up with adult men here in the United States and falling prey to these older men.
Paul didn't force this above-described young man to have sexual intercourse with him. What probably happened is that this young man was gay and he didn't have the wherewithal or bravery to hook up with another boy his own age, because, let's face it, a gay teenage boy can walk into a really dangerous situation in the event that he develops a crush on a boy the same age as him and that crush turns out not to be gay.
If a gay high-school boy approaches another teenage boy to profess his sexual interest in him, what do you think is going to happen when that other boy turns out not to be gay? He and his buddies will probably beat the crap out of the gay high-school student and even put him in the hospital. That's the sad and dangerous life that most gay teenagers live in the United States.
Now, I completely get it. Why Paul got 20 years behind bars is no mystery to me. Most parents want their teenage son to find himself a girlfriend and, later on, get married and start a family. Whenever a parent finds out that their 14-, 15-, or 16-year-old son is sexually involved with an older man, that revelation is enough to cause that parent to blow his or her top sky high in a fit of rage.
Paul's life isn't going to get any better once he serves his entire prison sentence, because then he'll confront all the indignities of being on the sex-offender registry and facing difficulties in integrating back into society after his release back into the community.
A gentleman named Steven Robert Whitsett fell into similar circumstances as Paul did, and eventually he blew the winds of the land of milk and honey and fled to Germany to seek asylum there. He is currently in exile in Germany under a protective order from the German courts that prevents the American authorities from extraditing him back to the United States. Below is a video of his.
Steven Robert Whitsett Tells His Story About His Brush With The American Sex Laws
Fortunately, Mr. Whitsett knew how to fight off prison rapists while he was serving his time. In any event, his prison life was still like an ongoing nightmare from which he couldn't wake up.
Mr. Whitsett is currently living a much better quality of life now than he would have been living if he had chosen to stay in the United States. Moreover, he would have had to have served another two decades behind bars because of some minute technicality in his sentencing.
As I was reading the comments section of Mr. Whitsett's above video, I came across an interesting comment that YouTuber mrsociallyawkward posted. Therein he stated:
In America, a middle-aged man can't be friends with a teenage minor without it being suspicious. You gotta love our puritanical culture that turns everything into a sexual taboo... NOT! Essentially everything is sexualized and we are constantly bombarded with sex but are then shamed when we show any interest in it. USA USA USA!!!
It pains me to say that our nation is gradually turning into a Fascist totalitarian police state insofar as we are going to become what Nazi Germany was in World War II if and when World War III ever breaks out. Sure, we have a very large military. However, if every nation on this planet becomes our enemy, it only means that there will be greater bloodshed than you can possibly imagine.
There is currently a major exodus occurring in the United States because of the way elected officials and other public officials are walking all over poor and middle-class Americans. Below is a video in which YouTuber Large Man Abroad seems interested in expatriating from the United States.
An American YouTuber Is Fed Up With The United States
YouTuber Large Man Abroad is correct about our lawmakers and elected officials attempting to push our way of life onto other nations. They're trying to get other countries to adopt our draconian sex laws. Luckily, those other countries are not giving in to their efforts very easily.
Some of the oligarchs and billionaires that YouTuber Large Man Abroad speaks of in his above video own the prison-industrial complex here in the United States, and they're all in favor of harsh sex laws here in the United States so that they can pull more people into their clutches than would normally be incarcerated. There is no honor here in our nation anymore.
Donta is correct in his assertion that the criminal justice system in the Commonwealth of Virginia is likely the most corrupt one in the entire United States. Nobody in it even cares if you are innocent of a sex crime involving a minor. Below is a video of a gentleman named Norman Michael Achin whom the police railroaded for a sex crime involving a minor that he didn't commit.
Norman Michael Achin Stands Up To A Threat From A Troll
At the end of the day, like predator hunters and predator catchers, these same trolls who have threatened Mr. Achin are nothing more than domestic terrorists. Unfortunately, too many Americans don't want to believe that domestic terrorism has become a problem in our nation.
Donta also posted another video about an adult man getting romantic with a teenager. She was 14 years old at the time of the incident. Donta claims that the man groomed her, but I feel that such an accusation is highly debatable and would need to be proven in a court of law before it could become established fact. Watch the video below.
Donta Describes A Man Seeking Consensual Relations With A Teenage Girl
I'm not going to try to put angel wings on the 50-year-old man that Donta describes in his video above. However, with respect to the 14-year-old girl, the only crimes that this man committed against her were giving her cannabis and possibly stalking her. She chose to walk away from him, and nobody got hurt. End of story. She didn't want to be Nelly Rivas or Marie-Louise O'Murphy, but, at the same time, that 50-year-old man wasn't Jeffrey Epstein either.
In his video above, Donta did not specify what he meant by "violating a 12-year-old girl in an alley" near the end of his video above. I need additional information to form an opinion about that incident.
In any event, Donta asks his audience in his video above what the statutory age of consent should be in every state jurisdiction. I think that the question he should be asking is whether "statutory rape" should be a strict-liability offense, and my answer to that question is no. It should be an intent offense instead so that American court dockets are not inundated with frivolous and malicious statutory-rape cases.
Every self-righteous do-gooder came out of the woodwork in the comments section to Donta's video above and attempted to absorb everyone else into their make-believe world of age-appropriate perfection and wholesome purity. Some of them went as far as demonizing all age-gap relationships between two people above the legal age of majority.
Well, fact has it that not everyone should be compelled to become a Tony-Danza/Macaulay Culkin centaur and marry their same-age high-school sweetheart when they're 17 or 19 years old. There are so many deadbeat teenage fathers in the United States that the above-described 14-year-old girl will likely forget about "Unc" after she has a bad experience with a boy her own age.
Nevertheless, if any of you still believe that every adult man who has ever fallen in love with a teenage girl more than 3 or more years younger than him is sick and twisted and that the statutory age of consent should be raised to 35 in every state jurisdiction of the United States, then I highly recommend that you read the online publication titled The Paradox of Statutory Rape by Russell L. Christopher and Kathryn Hope Christopher from beginning to end. You might learn a thing or two about the true nature of American statutory-rape laws.
The statutory age of consent was 21 years old in the Netherlands for many years, and it got to the point that everyone began ignoring these laws insofar as the courts were no longer handing out prison sentences to people who violated them. Nobody could take them seriously, because nothing about these same laws made sense to the Dutch people.
Forcible rape is actual sexual brutality, whereas statutory rape is nothing more than a legal construct. Why is it that Levi Johnston was never arrested for raping Bristol Palin back when she was 16 years old? Oh, wait a minute. He's the same age as her, and according to society, he can do no wrong. Well, he forced himself upon her, so he shouldn't get any Romeo-and-Juliet protection under the law.
Talk about a broken criminal justice system. It brings to mind that a 12- or 13-year-old boy forcibly raped the late Aubreigh Wyatt when she was only 12 years old, and he has not been arrested to this very day. These self-proclaimed child advocates believe that older men are to blame for each and every one of adolescent girls' problems, even though it is mostly these girls' male peers that are sexually victimizing them; but that's the American culture for you.
Do any of you know who Judie Brown is? She heads the American Life League; and she adamantly contends that embryonic stem cell research is a form of child murder, even though she has never produced even one shred of scientific evidence to back up her claims to this very day. She always has that my-way-or-the-highway look on her face in her pictures, which tells you how far you would get in an argument with her no matter how right you were.
Well, Chris Hansen is the Judie Brown of the statutory-rape laws. He insists that any kind of intimacy shared between a teenage girl and an adult man has to be child molestation despite that teenage girls have been falling in love with and even marrying adult men since the beginning of time. The T.C.A.P ("To Catch A Predator") community is like a cult of raving, braindead idiots.
In the comments section of the video above, YouTuber trunksragex50 posted:
Aye Donta when he gets to prison and them inmates see that paperwork find out what he did that weirdo salad is getting tossed plus the old sword of justice last but not least getting punked.
Here is where these puritanical know-it-alls like YouTuber trunksragex50 delve into what can be best described as the "chomo" hypocrisy. Most of the prison rapists ("booty bandits") have been with underage girls as adult men themselves. Therefore, by raping inmates who are locked up for messing with jailbait, they are not truly serving any kind of noble cause or divine purpose. They're merely violent goons looking to prey on inmates who make easy targets, period.
American prisons reek with hypocrisy. They're kind of like high school. When I was back in high school, I remember how it was cool for a teenage girl to have sex but not to get pregnant. The same school of thought applies to American penal facilities. Inmates think it's cool to have sex with teenage minors but not to go to prison for it.
Fortunately, not all booty bandits get away with their actions. Sometimes their actions can backfire on them in the most tragic ways possible. At the same time, it is sad when innocent family members of them get caught in the crossfire from those exacting revenge against them.
Amhad Jamal Blakemore
Now, what is so interesting is that in spite of everything that Donta claims in his videos above regarding convicts who get incarcerated for fooling around with jailbait, Ahmad Jamal Blakemore, on the other hand, attests that men convicted of sex offenses involving minors don't necessarily get raped in prison on a frequent basis. Keep in mind that Mr. Blakemore served time in prison for having sexual intercourse with a 16-year-old girl, so he'd know about these things. Watch his video by clicking into the link within this sentence.
The reason that I have not embedded Mr. Blakemore's video herein is because he has devised it not to embed in anyone's articles. Now, before anyone gets excited about the fact that Mr. Blakemore had sex with a 16-year-old girl back when he was in his thirties, allow me to interject that there will be teenagers that have sex with older partners as long as there are teenage hedonists.
If Donta is as streetwise as he says he is, I'm surprised that he would be shocked that a middle-aged man would walk into a party full of teenagers. When these parties are raves, teenagers usually see these older men as opportunities for them to gain access to alcohol. Below is a video of a 1994 edition of Ricki Lake in which she is discussing teenage hedonism with her guest panel.
Ricki Lake Discusses Teenage Hedonism With Her Guests
Interestingly enough, Ricki Lake did bring up the subject of statutory-rape laws briefly, although she didn't really discuss it in depth with her panel of guests. However, she seemed more focused on whether or not the teenagers on the panel should have been sexually active at all. She even jumped down an 18-year-old woman's throat about it.
As for the 17-year-old boy on the guest panel who admitted that he had sexual intercourse with a 31-year-old woman back when he was 14 years old, one does have to admit that at least he didn't get a 12- or 13-year-old girl pregnant and then bailed on her. Of course, Ms. Lake was of the school of thought that he shouldn't been having sex at 14 years old with anyone at all.
Anyhow, Mr. Blakemore doesn't deny that while someone with a sex-related conviction involving a minor may not be a regular target for prison rape, they're not immune from it either. Donta, on the other hand, attempts to promote the idea that inmates with sex-related convictions involving minors are walking targets for prison rapists. So who are we to believe?
Let's keep in mind that Mr. Blakemore spent most of his prison sentence performing research in the prison library. I seriously doubt that prison rapists spend any significant amount of time in the prison library, learning about academic topics. Therefore, it could explain that even though he was convicted of a sexual offense involving a minor, nobody ever really bothered him.
Mr. Blakemore did post another video about this same topic. I value his point in that video about convicts who target people with sexual offenses involving a minor or minors needing to clean up their own doorstep.
I'm not here to determine how often someone convicted of a sexual offense gets raped behind bars or how likely it is to happen. The purpose of my article here is to answer whether or not a prison rapist should receive the death penalty for their heinous sexual crimes against their inmates.
2. The Death Penalty For Prison Rapists
Prison rapists usually get away with their crimes. The women who usually defend these scumbags are equally as revolting as these men are regardless of whether they be these men's girlfriends, wives, or mothers.
I don't believe that any woman should be allowed to testify in defense of her son if he has raped an inmate, unless she is willing to allow the prosecutor to put every blemish in her past on exhibition for the entire courtroom to see and hear. These women have a propensity to commit perjury under oath while they're on the witness stand
Whenever I hear that these same women have prior convictions for prostitution, it doesn't surprise me in the least. Once a happy hooker, always a happy hooker.
I'm not describing the type of prostitutes that ran away from home when they were 10 or 11 years old and got caught up in the seamy underbelly of the sex-trade industry. I have empathy for anyone who fell into those same kinds of circumstances. I'm describing the type of prostitutes that pride themselves at making money off of destroying happy marriages by having sex with married men for money. These are usually women who have clearly failed society, and they are terrible parents.
I'm not a misogynist. I simply don't understand how some women believe that they can raise a little boy in a brothel and not expect him to turn into some kind of violent, deviant monster.
What is of particular interest to me is a story that Jay Williams posted on YouTube regarding a young inmate who retaliated against his prison rapist and received a ridiculously heavy sentence for it despite that he originally was only to serve a few years behind bars. Below is the video in which Mr. Williams tells the entire story.
A Man's Sentence Is Lengthened To Life In Prison For Killing His Rapist
If I were the Governor of the Commonwealth of Virginia, I'd be issuing a full gubernatorial pardon to Brian for killing that human-sized cockroach who raped him in the prison shower; but that's just me. I realize that everyone has their own opinion of what justice should be. Brian got unjustly the same bum rap for killing the man who raped him that the Menendez brothers got for killing their father after so many years of exploitation and sexual abuse.
Not every story about a prison rapist ends as tragically as the one described in the video above. A gentleman who has a YouTube channel named "End of Sentence" describes an 18-year-old man who killed a prison rapist before that prison rapist had a chance to overpower him. Below is the video.
A Young Man Named Daniel Killed An Inmate Who Attempted To Rape Him
Luckily, Daniel was not charged with murder inasmuch as he was able to show that he engaged in self-defense upon killing James Sanders, and that is how it should have all played out in the long run inasmuch as Daniel really had no other viable choice. His inmates even backed him up with their testimony.
After having been wrongfully convicted of a crime and contracting HIV from prison rapists, a victim won 9.2 million dollars in a court proceeding. Below is a video about it.
YouTuber Lovelyti Describes A Prison Rape Victim's Victory In A Civil Matter
A Marine Corp veteran named T-Bone who was wrongfully convicted of armed robbery became a vigilante to stop prison rape. Shaun Atwood reads a personal letter from T-Bone to him in the video below.
T-Bone Stood Up Against Prison Rapists During His Incarceration
I may be doing a separate article about T-Bone in the near future here on my PEAKD channel. In any event, it is good that there are people out there who are fighting back against these prison rapists either physically or legally.
Nonetheless, unless you are an avid opponent of capital punishment, I cannot fathom anyone not wanting prison rapists to be executed either in the electric chair or by lethal injection. A firing squad or the gas chamber wouldn't be such a bad idea as a form of capital punishment for them either. The guillotine would make a suitable form of execution for them, although I know that it would never become legal in our nation.
Some of you may be asking me, "What about the Coker vs. Georgia ruling?" My response is, "What about it?"
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis went ahead and passed a law expanding the death penalty for anyone who rapes a child under 12 years of age, and he vocally insisted that the Supreme Court of the United States ("SCOTUS") screwed up in their rulings against sentencing child rapists to death, on a number of occasions. Therefore, how would it be any different if, say, the Governor of Texas or the Governor of Utah were to expand the death penalty to include prison rapists?
The SCOTUS has no army or any kind of military body to enforce their rulings upon state governors. If Texas or Utah were to pass a law that would allow them to sentence a prison rapist to the electric chair, I wouldn't doubt that there would be advocacy groups attempting to get the higher state courts in the state jurisdiction where the execution would be to take place to put a stop to it.
Nevertheless, most of the U.S. Supreme Court justices would be concerned about their honorable name being kicked into the mud, but they wouldn't be shedding any tears for a prison rapist that got fried in the electric chair. I'm sure the prison rapist's mother would be going completely berserk and screaming from the top of her lungs like a lunatic about how her middle-aged son is such a good, little boy who can do no wrong.
There would be droves of people celebrating such an execution everywhere in that same state jurisdiction afterwards. Then a whole host of people would be lining up to spit on that prison rapist's dead body if such an arrangement could be legally made.
Prison rapists have gotten away with their atrocities against their victims for way too long here in the United States. One of the state governors in the United States needs to tell the Supreme Court justices either to overturn Coker vs. Georgia and its analogous rulings or to go fly a kite.
Nothing makes sense about the law protecting prison rapists. I've only known of one prison rapist in my lifetime who actually expressed feelings of remorse for his victim, and that's only because it resulted in his grandmother's brutal death. If these maniacs were to confront the possibility of execution, they might think twice about raping another inmate. They seldom ever become model citizens in the long run.
3. Final Thoughts
Some liberals may argue that imposing the death penalty against prison rapists would be a violation of the Eighth-Amendment to the United States Constitution in that it would be cruel and unusual punishment. However, what about the victims?
Whenever someone falls victim to a prison rape, what their assailant or assailants do to them is cruel and unusual. It can leave emotional scars and even cause permanent physical damage.
Some liberals will argue that implementing the death penalty for prison rapists in defiance of any SCOTUS ruling would cause a constitutional crisis in the United States. Perhaps we need a constitutional crisis in our nation to get our laws right.
I find it appalling that there are prison officials that actually stand behind the rights of prison rapists. I'd like to hear how they'd feel if someone did something this heinous to one of their family members. Of course, they probably think that they're too holier than thou for anything like this to happen to a loved one of theirs.
If you still oppose capital punishment for prison rapists after reading my article here, then I'd like you to watch the video below from beginning to end. It's a news story about a 22-year-old man getting gang-raped and murdered in an Alabama prison shortly before he was to be released.
A 22-Year-Old Father Dies In A Brutal Rape At The Hands Of Inmates Who Drugged Him
All of the inmates who kidnapped, drugged, trafficked, and raped Daniel Terry Williams should be indicted, tried, and sentenced to death. They are incorrigible moles on the butt of society, and they do not deserve to live to old age.
The prison officials that covered up this atrocity should all be fired and indicted for negligent homicide, among other things. They all deserve to spend the rest of their lives behind bars rather than working as prison officials.
After this same story first broke, I came across a video on YouTube that was a video-recording of Mr. Williams' gang-rape and murder. I remember seeing him throw up in the video before he died. I don't know what happened to that video, but it was quite graphic.
The Supreme Court justices in Washington, D.C. would be insane not to overturn Coker vs. Georgia after watching the above video. Even U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who is a firm opponent of capital punishment, would likely have a change of heart about the death penalty for prison rapists after watching that same video in spite of her liberal viewpoints.
There used to be a YouTuber who went by the user name of ThatMixedGirl. She was always one to get up on her moral high horse each and every time any man flirted with social taboos. However, whenever she did a commentary about prison rape on camera, she would laugh and act as though it were all such a big joke. This is a woman who is married and has a son.
YouTuber ThatMixedGirl was deplatformed from YouTube for copyright violations. In any event, there were likely a number of people, including me, who were happy to see her lose her YouTube account inasmuch as she is as callous as callous gets.
If any woman believes that it's hilarious whenever a man is brutally raped in prison and is even maimed, then allow me to make a statement about it. Such a woman should be chained and shackled to a chair and forced to watch the last 20 minutes of the movie titled Looking for Mr. Goodbar.
In that same movie, Tom Berenger played the role of a man who had supposedly been raped in prison a number of times. Diane Keaton in her role of Theresa Dunn meets this man at a bar and takes him back to her residence to make love to him. After he is unable to perform sexually, she pities him verbally and something ignites in him to drive him into brutally raping her with a foreign object and murdering her.
There is nothing humorous about prison rape, and people, particularly women, need to stop making light of it. After these victims of prison rape get released back into society, it is communities throughout the United States that have to deal with these psychologically and physically damaged individuals, which is not always easy. Family members of these prison-rape victims are adversely impacted as well.
Should prison rape be a capital offense? My answer to that question is an absolute YES. Unless these scumbags who commit these crimes know that they could die in the electric chair or on the lethal injection table for these atrocities, they're going to continue on harming others. It's as simple as that.
Back when the SCOTUS delivered the Coker vs. Georgia ruling in 1977, Americans lived in a world that was much different from that of today. Nobody knew what the AIDS virus was, because AIDS was just coming into the United States in the form of a male Canadian flight attendant who was infected with it. Getting raped was a horrible experience, but it wasn't a death sentence as it is now in view of deadly venereal diseases.
The Coker vs. Georgia ruling and its analogous SCOTUS rulings have gradually become bad law. Prison-rape victims are dying, usually slow deaths. It's time for the SCOTUS either to overturn these rulings or for state governors throughout the United States to send these same rulings on their own merry way.
Enough is enough. These prison rapists must die for their heinous crimes. The death penalty for prison rape is well-warranted. Expanding the death penalty to execute prison rapists is not going to cause a constitutional crisis. Instead, it would pressure American lawmakers into bringing about constitutional reforms.
Some may argue that ignoring the Coker vs. Georgia ruling from the SCOTUS and its likes will cause our nation to take one step closer to becoming an anarchy. However, in reality, the real anarchy is in our prisons throughout the United States in the form of prison officials allowing and even encouraging prison rape. It's time that these prison rapists pay dearly for their crimes against humanity.
None of the same U.S. Supreme Court justices that participated in the Coker vs. Georgia ruling back in 1977 are still on the bench of the SCOTUS. I'm confident that the majority of the U.S. Supreme Court justices that are currently on the bench of the SCOTUS would vote to overturn this ruling as well as its analogous rulings if the matter were ever brought before them again.
