Twenty Minutes of Action

Things that are 20 minutes of action:


A good pick up game of Basketball with the Living Stones kids
At the gym
At the grocery store (I am a beast)
Waking up multiple times a night with a teething baby

Things that are not 20 minutes of action:

Porn
Destroying someone with words and/or actions
Getting drunk/high
Rape

If you have not heard about Brock Turner yet, you can google him. His father said three months of prison was a steep price to pay for "20 minutes of action." Brock said it was Standford's party scene/alcohol that was to blame. Neither said sorry to the victim.
That rape was a result of countless days, weeks, and years of choices that would take him to a place where he could ever think it was ok to take advantage of someone in that way. I wonder if the media would have ever noticed this case if Brock and his father had actually apologized and acted sincerely remorseful...
