Duke Lacrosse - All charges dropped

No. But if she did lie to the cops, they should charge her. Perhaps she was just Nifonged as well.

 

Wouldn't be surprised, but didn't she have something similar (some drummed-up charge) in her past? I'm not trying to smear her, but I think this was the case.

Need to cut down on the 'cry wolf' crap. That's what really hurts legit. victims

 

Totally agree....after the accused, the worst victim in the "Duke case" is the next woman that is actually raped. It tooks years for people to actually believe the victims of rape by student athletes, and this woman (and others) have erased that.

And according to the accusers cousin, she just had her 3rd baby.

 

Disappointed that not many people are echoing Lugnuts, who is as usual a voice of reason: Let's not get carried away with the nobility brush here. If these guys aren't thrill-seeking douchebags, this never happens.

 

Yes.
Their lives aren't ruined either, except for the moment.
And the carers of Don Imus and Mike Nifong should follow similar paths.
And why the Duke case is becoming the knee-jerk response to the Imus affair is a phenomenon worth pondering.

 

Are you serious? That's like saying "If this woman didn't take her clothes off for money in both public and private establishments, this doesn't happen." Both statements are equally idiotic.

 

Don't go putting words into my mouth. Got a parachute for that leap of logic?

Also explain to me how this happens if these guys don't decide it'd be a great idea to get rip-roaring drunk and invite a stripper over.

It's not that difficult. If you want to be a bunch of fucking drunk assholes leering at women, go to a strip club.

 

You mean dumb pieces of festering shit like Michael Irvin who hired whores and strippers in bulk, but was rich enough to cover for the blow and blow jobs is exempt from your wrath.
Pat Ewing and the rest of NBAPA getting freebies at whore houses doesn't rise to level of college kids hiring strippers?

Michael Wilbon has publically exhorted America to go to strip clubs as the 21st century version of the golf course: Strip Clubs, where the business of America is conducted.

Which demented douchebag threw thousands of dollars of paper money at some strippers only to get violent when they tried to scoop it up ?

BTW, if Crystal wasn't some cheap whore, blowing strangers for money, this wouldn't happen.AND. If Crystal's baby's father would only support her and his child, she wouldn't be wiping jizz off her chin to go to the next job.

 

Your sincerity on these issues remains in doubt.

 

Didn't have to put words into your mouth...you wrote them quite clearly for all to see. You're dealing in complete hypotheticals. How can you not see this as a "chicken or egg?" situation? Do we blame the drunk party-throwers who made a bad decision to hire a stripper, or the woman of extremely questionable morals/ethics/mental health who showed up to strip (rip roaring drunk herself, I might add) and then falsely accused said party-throwers of rape when, clearly, no rape occurred? You can't condemn one as a lightning rod for this incident without condemning the other.

Edit to add: Just to be clear, these players do not sound like the kind of guys I'd ever want to hang out with, either, and do, in fact, sound like douchebags. So, BYH, I'm not defending their past behavior or "deifying" them, as someone wrote in another post...I just thought that what you wrote was extremely one-sided, as if they were the only party in this horrible mess deserving of blame. If you think that, fine, we'll agree to disagree.

 

ESPN is airing a 30 for 30 on the Duke lacrosse case March 13 - the 10 year anniversary of the party that started it all.

Hard to believe that was a decade ago.
