They said they didn’t think it was rape if it wasn’t forcible. She wasn’t telling them no. In their minds, their “mistake” may have been that they didn’t get to her while she was still able to give them a flirty look (consent). They may well have believed that any girl in the town would have said yes to them, because they were such hot stuff. Clearly the adults were all willing to say yes to them, on everything else. Why would they ever expect that somebody would say no to them? They were jocks; they were ENTITLED to whatever they wanted, and nobody has either the power or audacity to say no.
Just like Congress, or the foreign enemy combatant in our White House...
What kind of person wants to have sex with someone who is unconscious? It’s bizarre. These are the kind of people who see other people as objects, not as human beings.
This episode has an added dimension of revenge on the girl for breaking up with another one of the players, who is said to have set this whole thing up. He should have been prosecuted.
