[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why we're not rioting in the streets about this. Seriously. Enough is enough.[/quote]

Because this whole story is made up and many of us are impartial enough to see it.  Violence against women is abhorrent.  So is patently lying to get attention.  This story is ludicrously fictitious.[/quote]

You cannot be this fucking disgusting and/or stupid?[/quote]

I dunno. The Duke rape charges turned out to be completely fictitious.[/quote]

Yes, it's true. Rarely, there are rape accusations that are false. (The Duke lacrosse team case, for example, which happened in 2006.) Should we therefore assume that all rape accusations are false, unless proven otherwise? And what about the many rapes that occur, but the rape victim never publicly accuses anybody?[/quote]

So, by your "logic", we should assume that all rape accusations are true, regardless of evidence or lack thereof?  In other words, "innocent until [b]proven[/b] guilty" is meaningless and a simple accusation should suffice?

I happen to believe what happened in the RS article is true and absolutely disgusting.  However, because there is no proof - yet - I am very hesitant to jump on the bandwagon.  Yes, rape is a big problem, especially on college campuses.  [b]But there has to be a presumption of innocence until one is absolutely proven guilty[/b].  Otherwise, what's the point of our justice system?[/quote]

I agree with this completely, but the poster above at 10:38 said the boys involved have confessed, admitted guilt and signed confessions. 
So, I’m wondering what the real issue is here? Is it that the victim doesn’t want to go through the legal process to see these guys punished?
