The headline makes me feel like those guys who cheered the Brown v. Board decision with "Free by '63!" Because there are 3,141 counties in the USofA. We're talking about one of them. And just one unjust charge.

Jailed for Teen Oral Sex, Now Ordered Free
Georgia Supreme Court Found a 10-Year Sentence for Oral Sex With Fellow Teen 'Cruel'

0ct. 26, 2007—Georgia's Supreme Court on Friday ordered the release of a young man who has been imprisoned for more than two years for having consensual oral sex with another teenager.

The court ruled 4-3 that Genarlow Wilson's 10-year sentence was cruel and unusual punishment.

In fact, there's a level where it's pretty goddamn bizarre that one should be so relieved to find that there may actually be limits.

It's 2007. Maybe now it would be safe to say "Free by '63!"
