An Oklahoma court has stunned local prosecutors with a declaration that state law doesn’t criminalize oral sex with a victim who is completely unconscious.

The ruling, a unanimous decision by the state’s criminal appeals court, is sparking outrage among critics who say the judicial system was engaged in victim-blaming and buying outdated notions about rape.

But legal experts and victims’ advocates said they viewed the ruling as a sign of something larger: the troubling gaps that still exist between the nation’s patchwork of laws and evolving ideas about rape and consent.

Well, considering that .35 is considered to be the lower level for fatal alcohol poisoning, if she had died during the encounter, would the offense of necromancy then lie? The experience for him would have been about the same...

A certain lawyer who was President declared that oral sex ain't sex, so I guess this is about right. (Blue font obviously - although asking Hillary about this would admittedly be interesting).

If the victim flattens his "appendage" with a hammer while he is so inebriated he doesn't really feel pain, is that a crime?
