i am not at all a Lara Logan fan, but to say she “lied about being raped in Egypt” really creates a false impression that she made the Egypt incident up and that she wasn’t sexually assaulted, neither of which is true.

Some say “rape” is only rape when it is done with PIV sex by overwhelming physical force. Many use a broader definition of rape. Rape with digital insertion, rape with objects, non-consensual oral sex, non-consensual anal penetration. Logan, as a survivor, is not obligated to go into the exact details of her rape publicly. She has repeatedly said she was raped with hands, seriously beaten and stripped of (some amount of) clothing.

GTFOH. Lara Logan endangered the whole crew with her disrespectful insistence on getting as close a look at throngs of people protesting for their lives. She ignored warnings to clear the area and elevated her career over sensitivity to the people she was exposing to government reprisal by filming their faces AND the crew members and handlers charged with protecting her. When the crowd descended on her as she richly deserved for rubbernecking, she saw a chance to work an angle and then took it. Her story changed from alleging the men took turns gang raping and sodomizing her to “clarifying” she was “raped” with “hands” when evidence and witness accounts contradicted her claims. She claimed the men had inserted flagpoles into her orifices, but then when questioned about it on 60 Minutes, she said the men beat her with the flagpoles. Her injuries weren’t consistent with having been beaten with heavy objects by the 300 men she claimed attacked her. When the whole story started to fall apart, she clammed up and hid behind her victim status, positioning anyone who questioned her as a rape apologist. In the end, she played on stereotypes of savage Arab/African men to get publicity and raise her profile. Her colleagues and peers at CBS, CNN, and the same news sources that have now turned on her for political reasons were all complicit in her lies. Years later, she was demoted for having fabricated aspects of her reporting on Benghazi. Guess what? She was a liar and opportunist all along, which everyone recognizes now only because doing so is politically expedient.

As someone who has been "raped by hands", I would never claim that I was "raped". That is very insulting to actual rape victims.

She's an opportunist and an attention wh0re.

The irony here is that she claims she was raped, but probably supports extremist right wingers who advocate for forcing rape victims to carry their rapist's child. They are like extremist muslims, those very same types of men she says "raped her with their hands".


Whatever the technicalities here are, it still sounds HORRIBLE, she was violated, she was sexually assaulted and beaten, should be enough. What are you in charge of rating rape? "please rate your rape on the scale from 1-10, only those who get a score 5+ are eligible for victimhood and our sympathy". If you subscribe to this POV, then you are just like all those who minimize things like date-rapes and blaming the rape/assault victims for "leading on" their violators. How hypocritical. Imagine yourself in this situation when you are attacked by a CROWD of people stripping you of clothes and violating your body in different ways, does it matter if there was no penis insertion?

give me a break. Yes, she was assulated, but she was not raped. There was no insertion of anything into any oriface. She was assaulted, not raped. She had to back track, and say that she was "raped by hands". That's a madeup thing. She wanted attention.

It still doesn't excuse how she has gone down the MAGA rabit hole of conspiracy theories. She and the rest of the #stopthesteal, 1/6 insurrectionist needs serious de-programming.

She has gone so far down the path of crazy I don’t even know what to say. Evidently Republicans (it’s on the fringes now, Lindsey Graham will be saying it shortly) believe that a “global cabal” in the UN is going to “infiltrate” 100 million illegal immigrants into the US.

In her defense, they are experimenting in Europe and Australia with feeding insects to young school kids:

https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ijcs.12616

And the border here is essentially wide open. No need to debate that anymore - there’s tons of video, interviews with those coming over, documentation of what countries, etc. You are seeing it all over the streets of America now as well.

Stop it. The borders are not “wide open”. Do you fear Canadians streaming down south to the US?

Some cultures eat insects. Why is this an accusation? Grasshoppers and crickets can be found on the menus of upscale French restaurants.

And interesting that you did not try to explain away her blood libel accusation, one of the oldest anti-Semitic tropes around. Surprised she didn’t show a picture of someone with horns on their head.

You’re seeing what on American streets? Brown people you assume are illegally here because they are brown?

Some cultures have eaten insects for millennia. And people do eat crickets in America. Cricket products are sold at MOM’s.

Can someone please explain how these nutters are preaching about the elite “Dining on the blood of children” at the world economic forum in Davos when almost all of those who attend are right wingers?

I don’t give a crap what color they are. I’m talking about beggars on every corner here in VA, most being dropped off by people with MD plates.

Hun. Homeless people aren’t all undocumented immigrants. Are you that naive or bigoted?

By Lara's own words:

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/lara-logan-they-raped-me-with-their-hands-bsjkjzdmflc

https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/cbs-reporter-lara-logan-break-her-silence-on-tahrir-square-sex-assault/news-story/81385fa9f921b70fdf8c4be571e64579


"For an extended period of time, they raped me with their hands."

And I'm a woman. She initially cried rape, and that was wrong. It's a slap in the face to women who were actually raped.

I'm not saying what she went through wasn't frightening, but she over embellished to make herself sound more of a victim.

She claimed that she didn't want this event to define her, but she went on to give several interviews about it. She is/was looking for attention. Always has. I used to watch her on 60min.

proof?

A lot of homeless are vets with mental illness. I guess having served their country, they are just throw away human beings to you

Also a lot of homeless in CA aren't from CA, either. There are news articles about it. They get a one way bus ticket from other states, probably red one. Where's your proof that DC homeless are "dropped off by people with MD plates"?
