His name is Wesley Dingus? Are you fucking with me?
Hard to take the article seriously with that name
Village Dingus
http://www.villageofbutler.com/
although that website says hes a council member, so they probably dont update it. in any case, pretty much anything in Ohio called a “village” is just a scam so a handful of people can have full time govt jobs where they don’t do shit.
Butler Mayor Dingus
Wesley Dingus?.. Fuck. Off.
It’s so weird because the guy presumably had a wife omand children. Otherwise why the fuck would a minor be in his house? Which means he had wife panties to sniff to his heart’s content. God gives gold to fools. Not only that but women sell used panties as well for a lot cheaper than lawyer fees.
Me, personally? I wouldn’t have done that.
are there any americans in politics who aren’t child molesters
*underage teen girl who was “staying at his residence” (emphasis mine)
And while I think he should face the full penalty of the law, why do prosecutors even bother considering the president has done the same and worse? If the law is not applied evenly, it loses its moral authority. And without moral authority, people cannot be expected to follow the law at all. Thus, while what the mayor in this case did was morally reprehensible, it was not morally illegal, since the law is exempting politicians. Therefore, the law must be applied equally to all (this is what is meant by justice being blind) for it to be morally applied to anyone.
Hippity hoppity, the law doesn’t protect people, only property
Maybe if that underage girl would pull herself up by her bootstraps and become a job creator she could get some legal restitution. But if she had bootstraps, fuckin’ Dingus would just sniff those too.
since the law is exempting politicians
But only politicians who toe the capitalism line. If this guy had advocated for living wages instead of sniffing underwear, he’d probably have a mysterious car accident.
Trump is rich, this guy is not. It tracks with history that they get different penalties.
If the law is not applied evenly, it loses its moral authority.
The law is made by the dominant class, for the dominant class. All law enforcement is selective law enforcement, and class always plays in to the application of state “justice”.
praying for a world where people who do this shit are worked to death in uranium mines
Fortunately for Mr. Dingus, this probably won’t go anywhere. I imagine his lawyers will argue that he had a reasonable expectation of privacy within his own home, and that as the property owner he did not consent to recording equipment being installed. The case will be dismissed, headlines will read “DINGUS IS INNOCENT!” and nobody will dig any deeper than that, ever.
Justice prevails again.
Really testing my opposition to the carceral state
Only in Ohio
That isn’t a real name. You can’t tell me that this is a real name. Though “Wesley Dingus” does sound like the sort of person people would call an “underwear sniffer” so I suppose it is nominative determinism or something.
Whomst amongst mayors?
Item! Hyah!
