M-Nome rated 2 months ago- And another case of rape ignored because we don't give a shit about women in this country! Or anywhere! It seems that there is no where women can go to actually get a rapist arrested AND sent to prison.

- From the page: "Allow me to jog your memory. This would be the case of gang rape where nine men allegedly attacked an unconscious teenage girl while she was covered in her own vomit. This would be the case where three very brave other girls forced their way inside the room, rescued the victim and took her to a hospital. What we have here is one of the most clear-cut kind of rape cases in existance: the victim was unconscious, had to be taken to the hospital, and there were three eye witnesses to the crime. Normally, you hear â€oeitâ€s her word against his, no one knows what happened in there.” Youâ€ll hear the lack of impartial witnesses as an excuse for acquittal or even lack of an arrest. Here, there were eye witnesses. Three of them. And are we on our way to a conviction? No. These nine men will walk free to happily live the rest of their worthless rapist lives." I feel sick to my stomach. What the fuck is wrong with the world?

- Let me guess, Innomen... you're one of the nice guys. Right? In other news, I suppose I should go back to wearing massive baggy jeans and huge t-shirts or else I's goan be raped, y'all. I forgot that women who dare to wear whatever clothes they want deserve to be raped. My bad.

- I've never heard of a drunken date-rape incident that wasn't reported on from one extreme or the other: either there were no witnesses/no forensic proof/no credibility on the part of the alleged victims who have waited several weeks or months to report the incident, and the reputations of the accused are destroyed forever anyways--even if they are later proven innocent beyond all doubt... Or there are articles like this, where there is a metric assload of DNA/forensic evidence, more than one reliable witness other than the victim, the accused person(s) interfere with the witness(es) and/ or victim, and the incident is reported to the police and the victim is taken to the hospital the same day, often within the hour; yet no charges are filed, no trial is had, no justice for the victim is had. It can't really be like this out in the world, can it? This "all or nothing," "totally innocent or totally guilty," completely black-and-white view of reality? I agree in part with Innomen below, in that there needs to be some shared responsibility when stuff like this happens. Where are the parents or other responsible adults when underage people get their hands on enough liquor to get so drunk they don't remember raping or being raped? Why is nobody held responsible for shit like that? Why aren't the parents of these legally underage kids held responsibile for utterly failing to protect minors from drugs and booze, or teaching them that that kind of stuff is NOT "cool." A parent stating that they are/were unaware that their kids are drinking or experimenting with drugs is no better than neglect in my opinion. I can't agree with Innomen that girls or women who wear tight or skimpy clothing are courting rape (as he seems to be implying). That particular excuse has been around since the dawn of so-called civilization, bruited about by actual rapists and wanna-be rapists who believe that women are nothing more than objects and pieces of property, to be controlled and/or shared with friends. This does not automatically let women in general off the hook. Is it only me, or have other people noticed that the stories of date rape that make the papers all seem to name wealthy men as the supposed rapists? Has anyone ever read a story in which the accused was dirt-poor? If so, please message me with the appropriate link...I'd love to see some balance to this issue. At the end of the day, all I can say is that I think the entire world, male and female needs a good swift kick in the ass, and an extra-large dose of common sense. Too many of us seem to be lacking in that vital necessity.

- According to Innomen, the only women who ever get raped are stupid whores who probably deserve it. HMMM.

- "DO NOT, you crazy ass male reporter, tell me that there were 'obviously . . . good reasons' to drop this case."
Hear that? That's the sound of any credibility feminists and rape-awareness groups might once have had going down the toilet. In other news, Innomen seems to have based his entire perception of humanity on Mean Girls. - "DO NOT, you crazy ass male reporter, tell me that there were 'obviously . . . good reasons' to drop this case."

- First of all my comments are about "rape" in general. I don't know much about this case beyond what was said in the article (with regard to facts), which I am COMPLETELY prepared to believe thanks to the bullshit nature of our justice system.
And As upset as I am by this glaring and atrocious example of prosecutorial misconduct, I am still firmly of the opinion that a measure of responsibility still rests with these girls, their parents,teachers, and television for all encouraging them to hang out with TOTAL MONSTER ASSHOLES.
News flash girls: There are other ways to lead a happy life than wearing skin tight shorts with "pink" printed across the ass, and landing a sexy successful husband, whom you all, mistakenly I might add, seem to agree will start out a popular frat boy who can play guitar with a great student loan check and an endless supply of pills.
News flash: The chess club, while unable to get you mindlessly high every weekend, is not going to GANG RAPE YOU.
No pity for these girls, none, and I'm so NOT sorry.
I've seen them spit on (in some cases literally) the nice guy WAY too many times to give a shit what happens to them when they pick some degenerate/thug/redneck/dealer/tattoo artist/(take your pick of the cross section of human filth who manage to get more ass than a toilet seat despite being brutal and stupid) who constantly lies to them lies, gets caught, has a fight over it, and then gets makeup sex.
All that said, this is clearly a miscarriage of justice, but then again, so is the drug war and the countless male rape victims that result from it. .
Most rape victims are male, and until I see this fact on TV and in the blogosphere a little more not presented as the punchline to a soap joke, I frankly don't care. Fix that bullshit and then I'll care about little Tiffany getting raped after safely week after week, year after year, sucking up enough free booze and drugs to be INCAPACITATED, while wearing the mid summer equivalent of a french maid outfit to a building with a male to female ration of 5 to 1, looking to auction her ass off to the highest bidder rather than develop some skills of her own, only to have the crowd on that thousandth party, just take what they could never afford.
Women have selected violent assholes to be husbands, boyfriends, and more importantly fathers, for generations. Reap the whirlwind ladies. You make us fight and then pick the winners, what do you expect? Who's gunna win in a fight between Gandhi and 50 Cent? You've selected for violence and brutal arrogant stupidity and deception long after you had a choice to take the high road. It's not the ice ages you don't need a cave man.
Learn to share, and quit choosing who you hang with by mean income, drug availability, hours per week spent working out, and how willing they are to lie to your face about "love" and this problem will solve itself. If a guy wants you all to himself, tell him then he can stay by himself and find another. Men can't make this play, men must be chosen, but its VERY easy for a pretty girl to make this demand. Most guys if they are secure and honest will jump at the chance.
I personally would rather have a deep and meaningful friendship with a young woman who fucks me and others safely as she sees fit who is completely honest about it, than a woman who does the same thing and lies about it out of some medieval sense of honor. - First of all my comments are about "rape" in general. I don't know much about this case beyond what was said in the article (with regard to facts), which I am COMPLETELY prepared to believe thanks to the bullshit nature of our justice system.
