Describing an 18 year old as a “teen” certainly is a choice. And not one commonly made when the person accused of a crime is black.
14-year-old man posthumously charged with assaulting an officer and resisting arrest
An 18-year-old is a teenager. Your brain doesn’t stop developing until mid 20s.
Yes, teen is literally in the word, but you know that the implication is not “an adult legally responsible for their actions” and the choice of how to describe an alleged criminal is not applied similarly to white and black subjects. A 15 year old black boy will be described as a “black male” while a legally adult white man will be a “teen” until the day of their 20th birthday.
That does not matter, by law, he is an adult. The term “teen” is used when under 18 in the news. This is clear bias because of his race.
EighTEEN. He’s a fucking teenager get over it you fucking weirdo
Literally just repeating the originally argument instead of responding to the responses. Go fuck yourself.
Gee I wonder why you’re getting downvoted. Your ideas are perfectly neutral /s
It’s not their fault they were born with an understanding of nuance that was two sizes too small
If I told you, “Gary’s fucking a teenager,” I’m guessing you wouldn’t assume that teenager was over 18 and would be thinking maybe the authorities should be contacted.
I absolutely would. Do you watch porn? There’s a whole “teen” category
And quite a few of those ‘teens’ are well over twenty.
Or so I was told.
Sorry… you would “absolutely” assume that if I told you that “Gary [i.e. someone we both know on a first-name basis] is fucking a teenager” that the person was of legal age because of a porn category?
Because I’m pretty sure we don’t mutually know a porn star named Gary.
This also makes me worried about your feelings on incest.
Wow wtf is that kind of strawman? Do you not see the basic correlation between “fucking a teenager” and “fucking a teenager in porn”? porn has normalized that fucking a teenager is 18
We all get it, the type of porn you watch is still legal even though it has teen in the name.
This is regarding a legal matter where the man’s sentence will likely be decided by the fact that the court sees him as an adult. In most cases and as the other user pointed out 18 year olds are referred to as men in a legal context. This disturbingly seems to be the standard practice when describing black males of 18.
Generally speaking, describing alleged criminals as teens implies a lack of legal agency and thus biases the reader toward compassion. The point is that sometimes language can induce bias and consistency is needed. If that consistency falls towards the technicality of having the word teen in their name so be it, but that is not the case with our current media landscape.
MAGA is a cult and a terrorist group.
A teen who understood what Trump meant by “fair” elections
Agreed. This is expected and desired.
Each and everyone one of these people deserves the bed they shit in.
The issue is that they make terrible Dutch Ovens and the smells waft.
