I believe in rape.

But I can't help noticing that freepers were overwhelmingly in favor of giving Duke lacrosse players the benefit of the doubt, and overwhelmingly in favor of giving an FSU football player nothing of the sort.

And it bothers me quite a bit that I think I know the reason why.

The totality of the circumstances might disagree with you. Look at the accusers. A drug-addled hooker with nothing to lose who saw dollar signs versus a college student from a good family with everything to lose.

1) I don't think 'that' would be the reason. We don't need to go there.

2) No, we are not 'overwhelmingly in favor' of 'Duke lacrosse v FSU football player;...

To my shame, I was initially on the other side of the Duke case. Probably due to my bias against frats. Those posts were not on this site, but another. However, I did correct myself once the facts started coming out. Nifong getting disbarred was a good thing. 3) Most likely, they are just biased against FSU and for their alma-mater.

4) Alternatively, they are undercover feminist/democrats trying to 'win over the site' on an issue by employing specific methods of group control.
