For some reason tonight, I am reminded of the old saying that if you lay down with dogs, you wake up with fleas. They dogs, I am talking about are the leftist at Duke.
These kids are too young, but their Moms, their parents arent. Black parent have long known that at times in their lives they would like to protect their kids from people who hate them.
Parents of young white males need to understand while a place like Duke is "top rated" it is also full of people who hate your child for who their are, their sex and skin color. If you send your daughter to such a place it is risky as they might brainwash her, but if you send your son to such a place, they might as in this case try to do great great harm to him, lock him up for a number of years.
The parents of these lacrosse players foolishly sent them off to study where a significant fraction of the academic community hates them and thinks any dirty thing they can do to them, they had coming anyway. So maybe there is a national issue that needed to come out in this case. That issue is should parent of white males risk sending them to an institution like Duke that has hired and tenured in people that hate their child for his sex and skin color?
And since then, I've witnessed the Marxist assaults upon America's institutes of "highest learning" -- to dumb them down.
It's clear to me, the Marxists have found another way to ensure their low-scoring program spot holders will succeed at now "dumbed down" institutes of higher learning.
Princeton, Harvard.. and now the target is Duke.
It didn't surprise me that a very PC school like Duke would produce a committee report like this. An outsized concern about the "racial aspects" of the case and worry if a lack of diversity in the administration contributed to a failure to act sooner are par for the course there.
What interested me in the report was what very well may enable the players/families to sue Duke for damages:
"The players may been been lulled into a false sense of security about the events shortly to unfold and might well have sought legal counsel sooner had they been aware of the stakes. Some parents of the lacrosse players were (AND ARE) distressed by the failure of Duke authorities to alert the students and their families to the seriousness of the situation in the days immediately following the party."
Would the three team captains have participated in 25 hrs. of police interrogations on March 16 if they had had lawyers at the time? Not likely.
One of those captains, David Evans, apparently admitted to being at the party where alcohol was potentially available to underage players. For that honesty, he is now faced with a criminal record, as Nifong has rescinded his earlier misdemeanor diversion deal.
If I were his, or any other player's parent, I would be eager to punish the Duke administration, as their failure to advise me or my son as soon as this case came to their attention (Mar. 14) resulted in grave harm.
