Obama-era sexual assault laws apply to small children.
Once again, it is the New York Times that is willing to ask the tough questions.
The harsh truth is that the Obama guidelines have led to bad outcomes. They required ill-trained and intimidated school administrators to use a preponderance-of-evidence standard to find the accused student responsible for sexual assault — that is, if the allegation is proved true by 50.01 percent. In case after case, young men were expelled on the basis of allegations that they were not allowed to challenge by seeing the evidence against them or cross-examining witnesses.
California’s bill requires schools to uphold this problematic standard and take “appropriate” action against elementary-school-age children, which can include suspension or expulsion.
Put aside for a moment whether a 6-year-old is capable of forming the intent to commit a sexual assault when she plants kisses on an unenthusiastic classmate, or whether it makes sense to bring sexual assault charges against an eighth grader who hugs the girl he has a crush on but who does not reciprocate his feelings. Put aside for a moment whether school administrators should be branding children sexual assailants even if they are 49.99 percent sure the allegations are not true.
Let’s focus instead on what we already know: Heavy-handed disciplinary policies fall disproportionately on students of color. Because of the stereotypes associated with them, including the noxious but persistent trope that black males are inherently sexually predatory, black kids are presumed guilty.
Black students are more than three times as likely to be suspended than their white counterparts, according to a report by the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights. Sixteen percent of black students enrolled in K-12 schools were suspended from 2009 to 2012, but only 5 percent of white students were, the Civil Rights Project at U.C.L.A. found.
There you have it.
The real problem.
People think black people are more likely to commit sex crimes.
Even though that is totally just made up.
And untrue.
