Considering that the LAX player's posted their $400,000 bail with cashier's checks, to charge them with robbery would be pretty absurd.

Of course, why would three collegiate athletes rape a "stripper" when they could have had sex with beautiful, young coeds?

This is a demonstration of how entrenched the feminist notion that "rape is not about sex, but about power" has become.

It wouldn't be absurd to Nifong. He'd have charged them if he could.

The alleged rape happened during Duke's Spring Break, when few coeds were on campus. If it wasn't for Spring Break, I doubt they would have hired strippers at all.

And while rape can be about sex, recently in my area a 90 year old women was raped in her home by a 20-something assailant- do you think that was about sex? Rape may not always be about power, but it isn't about sex, either. Had the events that the AV describes actually happened, I would see that as more about anger than sex.

With boys/young men that age, its all about sex, not power. Also these kids were all on "The Team" and reasonably good looking young guys. That is honey for most young girls of a comparable age. The idea that this woman was raped just doesn't make sense to me. I'm sure the boys had many more attractive options very easily available.
