FULL TITLE: Pals of footballers accused in Connecticut high school rape case STILL defending them and bullying 13-year-old victims as they post grinning Instagram photo with Twitter hashtag demanding '#FreeEdgar'

Friends of three Connecticut high school students charged with statutory rape of two 13-year-old girls have continued to support the defendants, attack the victims and make light of the serious offenses, a week after the story made national headlines.

In a frightening display of ignorance, 10 students at Torrington High School posted an Instagram photo of themselves posing in the school gymnasium making hand gestures which spell out '21,' the football jersey number of on of the accused, 18-year-old Edgar Gonzalez.

Gonzalez' fans have also started the Twitter hashtag #FreeEdgar to post messages and pictures in defense of the alleged rapist, who remains in custody at New Haven Correctional Center and is due back in court on April 2.

Fellow footballer Joan Toribio was also arrested for sexually assaulting one of the minors but was released on $100,000 bail and an unidentified 17-year-old's case was passed on to juvenile court.

It seems that our schools across the nation have become so wonderful after we eliminated the evil influence of school prayer.

Looking at the pics, I see why this story has gotten little press.

With today’s teenagers I’m not surprised. Of course when there’s no fathers around to teach them to be men, how much can we blame them when they follow their base instincts?

I’m not talking about poor orphans. I’m talking about a society where according to what race you pick 50 to 85% are born out of wedlock and the baby daddy is no where to be found. This is something our society is not going to be able to survive.
