I'd wager that ninety-nine out of a hundred condoms sold in the United States is latex. Care to take me up on it?

Now you're just getting plain silly. Exactly what are you suggesting? That these lacrosse players whipped up some sort of homemade condoms in the lab for the purpose of getting away with rape? What the hell? They're jocks; do you really think they're that hard up for sex?
Until the state dismisses the case there's gotta be some there there.
In the first place, there is no "case" to be dismissed; no charges have been filed. In the second place, for crying out loud! As if nobody has ever been falsely accused of wrongdoing in this country. Just ask Steven Pagones. As if no prosecutor has ever been motivated by political concerns rather than the facts. Just ask Ronnie Earle. Ask both men just how much "there" is there.
Sheesh. So let's see. We have two options: one, the stripper made the whole thing up, or two: every one of the lacrosse players at that party is lying to investigators, despite the severe criminal sanctions it could bring down on them, to protect a few rapists. Said rapists committed said rape with supercondoms they brewed up in a chem lab. Despite violating the trifecta, and despite having beaten and strangled this woman, they didn't leave a single scrap of DNA behind. Photographs of the woman showing injuries and drunkenness pre-party, and banging on the door while smiling and laughing to be let in, have some sort of explanation. The other stripper made a 911 call to complain of being racially insulted, apologizing to the operator because she wasn't sure that it was really an emergency, but just plumb forgot to mention that her friend had just been viciously beaten and raped... little details like that can easily slip someone's mind.
Which explanation seems more likely?
That means you are here only to argue, or belittle, or abuse, or act like a mind-numbed, knee-jerk, robot-like Liberal.
Those are your only choices.
