That could be as many as 10 sets of dingleberries when this case is through. But this is Kaleefornia, and that won't happen.
I have no idea what would BeLACK ing in that article..........
Forget prison. HANG them at dawn the day after they are convicted! Vermin such as this shouldn't be allowed to live and be supported by taxpayers.
Least anyone reading this thread and its rant have any misperception, the anger here is NOT about the possiblity of black on white crime -- it is in large part about the media bias in reporting white on black crime vs. the reporting on black on white crime. It is also about the way certain parts of the Durham community went out of its way to inject race as an issue in the Lacross case where none apparently existed.
I take that back, race was and is an issue, but in that it is the white athletes who have been held to a different standard because of their race.
Yep, we have no idea yet if this case is totally without merit, unlike some other case. This could have been a brutal crime where heads should roll.
It's obvious what the media is doing here.
This will be minimized and ignored. Their actions will be excused. After all, football players are the "oppressed" and lacross players are the "oppressors".
Poor kid never had a chance. Can't help but think her mom's a mess, and she doesn't know her dad.
Either that or hire them as Airport Security Screeners.
That's my take also. This little girl has no chance. Her chance at a decent life was over before it started.
Agree wholeheartedly.
Generally speaking you're probably correct.
However, there are some girls who develop very early. Moreover, a kid can tart herself up to look a lot older than she really is. When you couple that with a bunch of guys thinking with their little heads, you get something like this.
In the past, this incident would have been largely ignored, proving your point with ease. Now thanks to FreeRepublic, this just went worldwide! It's hard for the press ot excuse and hide now! (But they'll keep trying anyway)
"For the time they've been here, they haven't thrown any wild parties," she said. "They haven't been doing anything crazy. They stay in the apartment. … I feel bad for them. That's just their life thrown away for something that childish."
That is apparently what the girl told them...

"A poor excuse for a failure to grasp the basics of english. When in doubt, throw an "izzle" sound in the middle of any word of just string random thoughts together and insinuate that they actually mean something. When backed into a corner, you can always claim that it has something to do with a sort of symbolism or is a defining trait that makes your race great, versus own up to the fact that it is essentially laziness at it's finest.
Plim-plizzle, my nizzle, don' foget bouts tha six-fo, chuch, dawg up in da hood, chilly my grilly. fo sho.

I remember checking into a Houston hotel - there was a clerk that warned me of a girl in the hotel that went around telling men she was 17 but she was really 12.
She was there with Grandparents, long term stay for Houston Flooding.
I ran into her - I interviewed her - poor kid said she was molested at some very early age - I think she said 5 yrs old.
The problem of evil - it's vast and ever present.
I was struck by that quote as well. Makes it sound like gang rape is OK as long as you're not into anything worse. This neighborhood is a case study in Defining Deviancy Down.
When young children are molested, they tend to become very sexually active in their teens.
"Forget prison. HANG them at dawn the day after they are convicted! Vermin such as this shouldn't be allowed to live and be supported by taxpayers."
To do that, you're going to have to move to California and start working to change the death penalty laws in that state.
Right now, rape does not carry the death penalty in California, so my suggestion is about the best that can be hoped for in this case.
At least one of they guys girlfriend ran out to call police.
