    I think that law is acceptable. It says it is your moral and legal obligation to inform and that is correct if you ask me.
  • Nick Larmon on 20 Nov 12
     
    I also believe that you should let these people know instead of not telling them. You should feel responsible if you have it, to tell them you have it.

    Let me know your opinion.

    The law states that there has to be intentional transmission of this virus in order to criminalize people yet in the article it states that Plendl"s hospital test came up negative. There was no transmission of the virus and the man was in prison and is now a registered sex offender.
  • joesneller on 14 Mar 17
     
    If the viral load at the time of intercourse was undetectable and he took precautions to be safe on top of that he should have not been found guilty of the charges especially since there was no way of either of them knowing if Rhoades was infected and if Plendl did not contract the HIV virus according to hospital tests
  • Matt Collins on 14 Mar 17
     
    I agree with the law and that you need to let people know but they used protection and and they didn't know at the time so Nick shouldn't be in prison. The law says it needs to be intentional but it wasn't intentional.
  • cvanhessche237 on 14 Mar 17
     
    Nick Rhoades stated that he was protected and that he shouldn't be getting any sort of punishment but I can see that he did a class B felony crime because he did pass it on but for him being protected he wasn't trying to do any harm he doesn't deserve the punishment.

    Today everyone needs to COMMENT a response to this article. Please answer both: ~In your personal opinion, did the police act appropriately? ~Based on your team's taser policy (from yesterday) was this an acceptable taser deployment? Why or why not?
  • cristiangarcia23 on 15 Oct 13
     
    Well she could have posed a threat to herself or the police so yes this was an acceptable taser deployment my group policy is that no minors will be tased unless under some circumstances like concealing a weapon or posing a threat to self or others.
  • brocha249 on 15 Oct 13
     
    i think it was the right thing to do because they saved her life but according to my group policy it shouldn't be ok because we put that minors shouldn't have the taser used on them
  • meganmiller22 on 15 Oct 13
     
    I think that the police were correct by using a Taser. This girl had the intent to harm others but mainly herself. I do think there could have been better ways to prevent her from harming herself but the Taser worked just as well. My group had the policy of No one under 10 unless has possession of a weapon. This girl had a weapon (knife) in her possession AND intent to harm. Therefore, the police acted appropriately according to my group's policy.
  • Julia Gibler on 15 Oct 13
     
    I do think the police officer acted properly because there aren't many choices in a situation like that. His main goal was to save the girl from further harming herself or anyone else. Based on my group's rules yesterday, it probably wouldn't have been acceptable because the girl was under 15.
  • Jensyn Hanson on 15 Oct 13
     
    I think they did the right thing, if she was really threatening to commit suicide, I'm not sure where an 8 tear old gets that idea, but according to my group policy, it shouldn't have happened because she wasn't threatening the police.
  • kadenroen on 15 Oct 13
     
    I think what they did was wrong when i just heard about it but after finding out she had a knife and was being suicidal i think what they did was right what else should they have done so she wouldn't hurt herself? With are policy it was not but in this case it was okay.
  • tyler nielsen on 15 Oct 13
     
    Yes because she was going to kill her self and the police saved her life. So i think that they did what they should have.
  • jordan fichter on 15 Oct 13
     
    I think the police did the right thing. They're were trying to stop her from hurting herself. She was a threat to them and her self.
  • Gracelyn Sales on 15 Oct 13
     
    I think the police did act appropriately in this situation. The little girl was pointing the knife at herself and the officer. The police weren't quite sure if she would harm herself so they tased her to get the girl's behavior under control. According to our policy from yesterday this was acceptable taser deployment.
  • angel fernandez on 15 Oct 13
     
    I think the police acted appropriate because the girl tried to kill her self and based on my team this would be acceptable because we said the girl had a knife and they should have used the taser against the girl for their safety and the girls.
  • Keegan Caskey on 15 Oct 13
     
    If he had to taze her to safe her he should do it and she did point a knife at the police office Yes she threatend the police officer and herself
  • Tyler Larson on 15 Oct 13
     
    From what my group said, the cop was right when he tazered the girl
  • Ryan Kups on 15 Oct 13
     
    Police acted appropriately. According to my group the use of a taser should not of been allowed because the girl was under the age of ten.
  • Eli Rankin on 15 Oct 13
     
    I believe that the police acted appropriately because there was no other way to get her to put the knife down. They talked to her about putting the knife down to give her an opportunity for this to not happen but she did not listen and suffered the consequences. My group thought that if the person is refusing to obey police order that the taser is okay to use, and in this case exactly that happened.
  • Taylor Morgan on 15 Oct 13
     
    i fell that the officer did the right thing because the 8 year old was going to kill herself if anything the police officer saved her life and based on my teams decision it wouldn't have been ok but she is trying to kill herself
  • Payton Hiffernan on 15 Oct 13
     
    She could have harmed herself or the police, so the taser use was appropriate in this case. Based on my team's taser policy I think it would be okay to use in this situation.
  • morgan davis on 15 Oct 13
     
    they saved her life so therefore i think it was the right thing to do.
  • Cecilia Saldana on 15 Oct 13
     
    I think the police did good with taser the girl. Also it would meet all of my groups expectations
  • keeley45 on 15 Oct 13
     
    I think in this situation the police did the right thing, yes it was acceptable because she could have harmed herself and others.
  • De'metre Neely on 15 Oct 13
     
    The officer could of handled this problem better, but he the right thing.
  • patrick boian on 22 Nov 13
     
    First why would an 8 year old girl be suicidal but regardless the officer did the right thing so they can figure out what the problem is

    A Michigan teenager who assaulted a man with a stun gun was shot twice when the victim defended himself with a legally concealed pistol. In May, Marvell Weaver, 17, was playing a variation of "knockout," a brutal and senseless game in which an assailant sucker punches an unsuspecting person with the intention of knocking him unconscious with one blow.

    A mother posted on her facebook about how her son is an expert marksmen, and hints at the though of him going to shoot anyone who has bullied him in high school. The case is still under investigation.

    This would be victimology number 8 (targeting people who are not merely weak, but helpless.) Any parent has the right to do what ever it takes to protect their child, especially if they are getting bullied, but threatening/ targeting the school and some of the students, is no way to behave. Why put the kids' lives at risk, let alone your own life...
  • Tristin Barnhart on 19 Dec 13
     
    I think that the intent with this story was #6: carrying out a crime to terrorize others by sending a message to potential victims. She claimed that only the people who had ever bullied her son would be shot. I also think that her attitude toward the situation is #24: indifference to the actions and their impact on the victims, she doesn't seem to say that she would have remorse for anyone that her son could possibly harm, because it wouldn't be his fault. And #8 targeting people who are weak and helpless.
  • Sydney Wilson on 20 Dec 13
     
    This story would contain items 1, 6, 12, 24. 1- because it seems like she's trying to scare them, 6- because again, it seems like she's terrorizing others with the fact that her son is a perfect marksmen, 12- you just don't put that out on facebook, and 24- she doesn't seem to care about other people and how it could possible effect them.
