CHP Officers Steal, Forward Nude Pictures From Arrestee Smartphones

sabri writes: Following the initial suspension of a California Highway Patrol officer earlier this week, news has come out that the CHP has an entire ring of officers who steal and subsequently share nude pictures. The nudes are stolen from women who are arrested or stopped. Officer Sean Harrington of Martinez reportedly confessed to stealing explicit photos from the suspect's phone, and said he forwarded those images to at least two other CHP officers. Where is the ACLU when you need them the most?

    Yeah, but it's the IT industry who's misogynistic (rolls eyes). Where're those SJW's when you actually need them? Out defending those professional trolls who smear an entire group of people based on outdated and outmoded stereotypes, like Anita S. and Zoe Q.

    I'm the AC who posted that comment. I'm a woman. A real woman. I was born with my vagina, uterus and ovaries. I'm not one of those social justice freaks who was born with a penis, scrotum and testes but is somehow considered a "woman".

    Let's cut the crap, son. Rape is a very serious problem. But a lot of social justice freaks have abused and misused the term to describe things that are not rape in any way. They've diluted the meaning of the word.

    Since they've made the word "rape" an ambiguous term, we now require clarification whenever it is used. We need to know if the person using it is referring to its real definition, or if they're just misapplying the term.

    This is a distinction we need to make, because it deeply impacts the meaning of whatever message is being conveyed.

    The social justice freaks are the ones who caused this problem you speak of, by chronically using the word rape incorrectly.

    You know, I just put together now that "SJW" is intended to be an acronym for "Social Justice Warrior" (which is in turn intended to be a derogatory phrase meaning, as far as I can tell, "uppity feminist").

    Correct on the first part, absolute rubbish on the 2nd. SJWs are usually not feminine, or even pro feminist. The militant Left/Liberals which usually fit the definition of SJW tend to be predominantly male. White males to be more precise. Since an incorrect premise tends to lead to an incorrect conclusion, I didn't bother with the rest of what you said.
