Lt. Al Giardello 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/columns/sto...ht&lid=tab1pos1 I'm interested to hear your guys thoughts on this case... Here are my thoughts... For those of you who don't know, I'm half black, half latino, and on my mothers side(the black side) one of my cousins actually attends Duke, and he told me most of the the white students there are very racist and the racism there has been ignored for years. Now I know if these were 3 black players, and 1 white stripper, the outrage would be bigger then it is now. Yes the lady is a stripper, but she also attends college and is a single mother. She has to resort to stripping to put food on her childs table, so in no way does she deserves the type of rape and punishment that she endured. Hopefully the DNA tests will prove it. I'm mostly interested Princess Leena's comments on this subject. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NYankees Report post Posted March 31, 2006 She was a stripper i.e. HOOKER. She probably realized what she done and figured she could make some money out of it. The woman is a fucking WHORE looking to make a quick buck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 All I know, is like 2-3 years ago when the St. Johns players were with a hooker, and the hooker screwed them over with a bullshit story, everyone was crying and shit, and saying how bad they were and all that crap. This is 20 times worse, especially since its rape. I don't understand how she'd get some quick money by getting raped...if it wasn't consent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 As horrible as the race baiting sounds, theres no doubt in my mind this would be looked at as a bigger issue if it were 3 black men and a white girl. I agree, both are equally horrible, but thats how things are today. You'll hear about the white girl getting raped and killed for weeks, but you'll rarely hear about the black girl who suffered the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stephen Joseph 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 Umm Duke's hardly over-running with racism. I've had plenty of friends there, and this is the first I've heard of it. I would've heard SOMETHING tangible when I was working with the Georgia Board of Regents and traveling to ACC schools to work with them on technological requirement legislation. There's racists everywhere, but rampant? Please, you don't know rampant until you go down to Georgia Southern. EDIT: And right now, it seems like that article just presumes guilt. We don't know yet, and until we do, I have to ask "Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stephen Joseph 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 EHME, What your cousin says, while good and all, doesn't pass as fact in my book. It's hearsay, and dangerous hearsay at that. The way rumors and inneudo get started and passed off as fact (see: New Orleans) makes me very cautious to believe anything people say. I understand that they made players give DNA tests. I understand that she has physical signs of sexual trauma. So we can say that she had sex. We can't say who she had sex with, or whether it was consentual or not, until that evidence comes in, which I have no doubt it will. Getting worked up over it until then its just a waste of energy. EDIT: I'm particularly careful in cases of rape. A friend of mine was accused of raping a girl. He was beaten up a few days later and sent to the hospital, had death threats, and thrown out of school. In the end, the girl broke down in the courtroom under cross-examination and admitted she wasn't raped, but it was consentual, but she lied to her parents about it and just kept lying. Meanwhile, my friend still has the stigma of people now wondering to this day if he raped a girl or not, even though he was proven innocent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And no one did shit about it. Then they go and pull this shit man, this shit aint right. Yeah, you find that racist shit all over. I went to school in the south, in New Orleans (Tulane). I was in a frat. We were one of two frats out of like, 9, that had both whites and blacks. We had hispanics, Indian kids, whoever was smart and wanted to chill. So then of course, my frat got really popular, and got taken over by a bunch of white-cap wearing faggots, oh so I hear. The best thing ever was when the biggest, most racist frat picked on a young black football player. The football team was quite mixed, and they stood up and beat their asses. There were a couple of frats that were fucking deep south at Tulane. Wouldn't even let non-white kids into their parties. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Failed Bridge 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 The truth is always somewhere in the middle. I'll guess she agreed to bang all of them in the champaigne room but didn't agree to having it thrown in her ass or something which they still did anyways. It'll be settled out of court, players will be suspended, and we won't hear of this again come 6months from now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 This is such a stupid fucking thread ... for starters, you are seemingly implying that this case is being ignored or under-covered because it was 3 white guys raping a black woman. (well, at least I'm presuming that's your intent by stating that the outrage would be bigger if it was three black athletes raping a white woman). I call bullshit on that, as it's been all over ESPN and the 24 hour news networks (I've seen it on both CNN & Fox News, and I rarely watch any of those types of networks). It's gotten plenty of coverage and is being treated very seriously. No less seriously than it would be if it were three white guys raping a white woman, or three black guys raping a black woman, or three people of three different races raping a mixed-woman. Second of all, your implication that it would be a bigger story if it was three blacks raping a white woman ... is unproven. And is unverifiable. There isn't an exact case to compare it to, there's no "apples for apples" comparisons. So to say that it'd be a bigger story is an opinion and shouldn't be stated as a fact. Yes, the media tends to hype the "missing white woman" cases more than when minorities are missing, but the sad truth is the "missing white woman" cases draw a larger audience, and thus make more money for the news agency. A case like this is money for the news agency regardless of the color of the perps skin. A major sports program, which Duke LAX is, having an incident like this is huge news. Next, NY Yankees claim that "She probably realized what she done and figured she could make some money out of it. The woman is a fucking WHORE looking to make a quick buck." is beyond offensive. Dude, the woman was held down and raped. She didn't deserve anything. You, my fellow poster, are an idiot. (mods can warn me for saying that out of HD. I don't mind, and I'd say it again in a situation like this.) Next, yes, there is a lot of racism at Duke. There's still a lot of racism in many parts of North Carolina. But to say that Duke, which suspended the entire LAX program while this is being investigated, is to blame or is 'allowing' racism, is a farce. Plus, every white member of the LAX team provided a DNA sample; they seem to be pretty keen on finding the assholes that did this. And I think Angel's comment about the black guy was based on the fact that of the 47 person team, 46 were white ... and thus the question of what he was up to. I don't think there was any hidden racist agenda behind the question. (Satanic Angel, correct me if I'm wrong). This is a horrible, disgusting situation. To make it a black versus white thing is unnecessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remember that guy that socked that public school teacher who his daughter had accused of molestering her? Limbaugh played 'where have all the cowboys gone' for him like a giant fat girl, and it turned out she was lying because he failed her. A grain of salt is always in order.

Lt. Al Giardello 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 I'm not denying that if it was 3 black guys and 1 white woman would be the same.

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2006 "Stopped the lacrosse team"? Meaning disbanded the program? EDIT: I had made it a quick question to try and catch EHME before he left the thread ... I missed him. In addendum, since I have more time: The Duke LAX program has had less legal issues than Nebraska football, or Miami (FL) football, or FSU football ... any and all of those programs are more worthy of reprimand than Duke LAX. And more than any of them is Colorado football. They deserve to be reprimanded most of all. Unless, of course, this rape case turns out to be an encouraged act by the LAX program.
