A Florida high school student was expelled and arrested after she continued to carry on a same-sex relationship with a minor student after she turned 18.

Kaitlyn Hunt was arrested in February at the behest of her 15-year-old girlfriend’s parents and charged with two felony counts of lewd and lascivious battery of a child 12 to 16 years old.

A judge ruled that Hunt could still go to her Sebastian, Fla., school if she did not have contact with the 15-year-old. Unhappy with that decision, the girlfriend’s parents also made an appeal to the school board, and Hunt was then expelled from Sebastian River High School just weeks before her graduation.

Her mother, Kelley Hunt Smith, claims State Attorney Brian Workman offered her daughter a plea deal that she has until Friday to accept or face trial. The plea deal includes “two years house arrest and one year probation.”

Her father, Steven R. Hunt, said the school disapproved of the relationship from the beginning. Hunt reportedly had good grades and participated in cheerleading, chorus and basketball. She was voted “most school spirited.” But when she began dating another girl from the basketball team, her coach dropped her citing that the relationship would cause “drama.”

Hunt’s family started a petition on Change.org asking people to “Stop the prosecution of 18 year old girl in a same-sex relationship” and calling it a “cruel waste of our taxes.” The petition, addressed to the Indian River County State Attorney’s Office, has more than 28,500 signatures so far.

“They are out to destroy my daughter, because they feel like she ‘made’ their daughter gay,” Smith said. “They see being gay as wrong and they blame my daughter. Of course, I see it 100 percent differently. I don’t see or label these girls as gay. They are teenagers in high school experimenting with their sexuality – with mutual consent. And even if their daughter is gay, who cares? She is still their daughter.”

Some other information: the 15 year old’s mother initially said that the relationship was fine as long as it was consensual. But the minute Kaitlyn turned 18, she was filing charges against her. If found guilty, she faces jail time or house arrest and will be labeled as sex offender for the rest of her life.

While the intentions behind this are BLATANTLY homophobic in nature, please remember the mother DID admit that these children, 18 and 15, DID have one sexual encounter. YES it was consensual, but it is still illegal. Keep that in mind with your arguments.

It’s unbelievable that this would be illegal though. There are merely three years apart between them (or closer to two and a half). There are laws here that prevent people like this from being arrested just for being intimate with their damn partner. They only did this because it’s two girls, a boy and a girl would have gotten away with it easily.

There are couples here, male/female mainly, that are usually about a year or less apart in age. To be more specific 17 and 18. The parents of the younger partner, who is usually female, file charges against the older partner, who is usually male, and pin them as sex offenders just because they do not like their child’s partner. Courts can be lenient, especially if the age difference is just by a couple of months but even if not convicted, the life of the older partner is tainted with the conviction.

I find that incredibly stupid. Of course you wouldn’t allow a 13 year old and an 18 year old to be together, but if the age difference is reasonable and it is consensual, I don’t see why people make such a fret out of it. 

Why is this being labeled as homophobic? I strongly doubt that reason for her being arrested and expelled was because it was a same sex relationship. It seems as if you are all looking past the fact that she is 18 and is carrying on a relationship with a minor, and that is against the law. Yes, I do believe it is wrong for them to go to such drastic measures, but why must we all suddenly jump to the conclusion that it’s because she’s gay?

Yeah but also the basketball coach took her aside and said this

“Kaitlyn, can I talk to you? I heard you have something going on with another female player on our team, and I can’t have that kind of drama on my team, I don’t allow it and I wouldn’t ever. So, I’m sorry, but playing on our team won’t work out for you.”

And the minor’s parents wanted Kate removed from the school (Kate only had a few months left until graduation) after she was arrested, even though the judge had ruled that Kate could continue school. The minor’s parents believed that Kate turned the minor gay.

That’s homophobia.

Do you research.

There once was a young boy with a very bad temper. The boy’s father wanted to teach him a lesson, so he gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper he must hammer a nail into their wooden fence.

On the first day of this lesson, the little boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. He was really mad!

Over the course of the next few weeks, the little boy began to control his temper, so the number of nails that were hammered into the fence dramatically decreased.

It wasn’t long before the little boy discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.

Then, the day finally came when the little boy didn’t lose his temper even once, and he became so proud of himself, he couldn’t wait to tell his father.

Pleased, his father suggested that he now pull out one nail for each day that he could hold his temper.

Several weeks went by and the day finally came when the young boy was able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.

Very gently, the father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence.

“You have done very well, my son,” he smiled, “but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same.”

The little boy listened carefully as his father continued to speak.

“When you say things in anger, they leave permanent scars just like these. And no matter how many times you say you’re sorry, the wounds will still be there.”

shit.

double shit.

triple shit.

I felt that liking this wasn’t enough and that it needed to be on my blog 

Don’t bash on girl fans, bash on fangirls 

It’s the truth though. Just because I’m a girl doesn’t mean I want to fuck every male band member I see. I enjoy the music, so let me go to shows, blog about bands, and enjoy the music I want to enjoy without getting bashed on just because I have tits.

Thank you so much. I’m so annoyed with people thinking every female who likes music just wants to fuck the band members.
