https://coloradosun.com/2024/04/17/colorado-child-sex-assault-constitution-change-senate-vote/Republicans in the Colorado Senate on Wednesday blocked the legislature from asking voters to amend the state constitution to let victims of child sex abuse from decades past sue their abusers even if the statute of limitations has run out.Senate Concurrent Resolution 1, which would have sent the question to the November ballot, needed a supermajority of support to pass the chamber. It failed by a single vote.Democrats hold a 23-12 advantage in the Senate, one vote shy of a supermajority. Democrats were united in favor of the resolution. No Republicans would join them, citing concerns about the constitutionality of the measure and how it could bankrupt institutions like churches and school districts.
>>1288229>abuse from decades pastSo, he said/she said.After that long, there's no way to prove it and thus this would only be used to attack/harass men by forcing them to pay out the ass for lawyers defending against charges with zero evidence.
they really are the worst kinds of people.. use the law to shield their evil deeds and to sow more. They should all be hung dead for seditious treason.
>>1288229>amend the state constitutionThat's a weird way to do it.Why not simply pass a regular law that allows it?Oh, yeah, the news story. "Republicans bad" because Democraps are playing games.
>>1288229>even if the statute of limitations has run out.Why does an authoritarian government need limitations anyway?
Is anyone at all surprised Republicans would continue to make it easier to get away with fucking kids?
>>1288238You want them to come after you when they’re old enough to realize what you did to them
>>1288247>Why not simply pass a regular law that allows it?Because the state supreme court ruled it was against the state constitution.
>>1288261Ah, then it's illegal and shouldn't be done, but they're trying to do it anyway.Sounds like Democrats.
>>1288322It's not against the state constitution if they pass an amendment to it via ballot measure.
Won't someone please think of the children?
>>1288229Ugh, how will we levy frivolous accusations while the statute of limitations is in place? This is an outrage.
>>1288443>frivolousAccording to whom?
>>1288229>even if the statute of limitations has run out.Dishonest faggot
>>1288241this has nothing to do with "shielding evil deeds" you shrill fag, it is about (((lawyers))) getting more money.
>>1288253Even if it passed people would still "get away" with it criminally. This is a about a payday like the New York bullshit.
>>1288254>I only realised it was bad when I was thirty five!KYS
>>1288254> can't counter the point> insults the posterAgain; how are you going to _fairly_ prosecute a guy for a crime that supposedly happened DECADES ago for which there is zero evidence?
>>1288531>Neil Elms says he was repeatedly sexually assaulted by Lawrence St. Peter, a Colorado priest who rose to high ranks in the Denver Archdiocese. St. Peter wasn’t removed from clergy despite “numerous, reliable, consistent reports” he was abusing boys.republicans are literal comic book villains
>>1288534>he was abusing boys.Homosexuals are evil chomos.
>>1288229>could bankrupt institutions like churches and school districts.>>1288238ok groomers>>1288537>Homosexuals are evil chomosso sorry about your grooming
>>1288531It would be very challenging and I’m guessing a majority of cases would get thrown out, but at least in cases such as >>1288534 there’s the legal framework to go after long term pedos and the people that conspire with them
>>1288546>so sorry about your groomingIt didn't work. The fag is in jail and I'm straight.
Just more shit from the GOPedos
