What I am trying to point out is the double standard in these two cases based upon race. In fact, the "feminazis" (who I don't side with)never took up the cause of Kobe's victim (black on white crime you see), whereas all the liberals are out gnashing their teeth over the evil white boys at Duke. I have seen a number of rallys and protests at Duke over this incident...I don't remember any protests outside of Kobe's home or candle light vigils in support of Kobe's accuser. In fact, Kobe's accuser received death threats. Its about race and nothing more. If the Duke lacrosse team had been an all black basketball team and the "victim" was a white prostitute there would be all sorts of rallys supporting the basketball team. This would be especially true at this juncture where the DNA match comes up negative. But, because they are rich white kids, and the accuser is black, nobody will support them and the prosecutor will continue his witch hunt. It is interesting that you immediately trash Kobe's accuser as a slut, but make no mention of the fact that the Duke boys accuser works for an escort service. This is typical of the double standard that has played out in the liberal media with regard to these two cases. P.S.-- I would appreciate a citation on the three different DNA results in the Kobe case. Everything I read says one, other than Kobe.

Actually the prosecutor in Co. v. Bryant held public events with women's activist groups who loved him for going after Mr. Bryant. This to me is like the DA in the Durham case going to UNC-Central to have a press conference today.
But I also agree with you that this case has its differences from the Bryant case. I think this is really part of an on going war whose last big battle was a University of Colorado. The we hate the jocks and men in general gang view such events as an opportunity to smear athletes and sports in general. That most of these guys were white was just a bonus to the usual we hate America all its institutions gang at Duke.
In some sense Duke deserves it. Duke though some in authority there do not understand it is an American insitution. They hire these anti-American types and then get what they deserve.
Let me ask you, if you were the parent of a good athlete who was also a good student would you let them go to Duke? I wouldnt. Depending on the sport I would send them to Florida, Notre Dame, etc. I am not sure about Michigan, but I know I would suggest they not consider Stanford [despite all its directors cups], Cal-Berkley, etc. I would not be surprised if the men's basketball began a long slide as a few players here or there steered clear of them each year.
