Duke Rape Case

Two Lacrosse players from Duke were arrested today, for rape, sexual assault and kidnapping. The alleged victim is a stripper that was hired for an off-campus party. She told police that she was raped by 3 white men in the bathroom. Far-fetched?? Not at all.

I hate to sit here and be stereotypical about college "men" (which we all know are really just boys...), but I have to say that I think they did it. Throw together 20 guys, steroids, 100 cases of beer, cocaine, and a stripper, and this is what you come up with. This happens at colleges all over the U.S. -- it has just never happened at Duke or Yale or Brown (that we know of...). And this is why this is so public and such a big deal. These "men" are allegedly the cream of the crop, the whitest-white, nice boys in the U.S. -- oh, but wait......maybe not.

The downside (or upside?) to all of this: When their rich parents hire the best attorney's to get them off the hook -- everyone on campus is STILL going to consider these boys rapists, no matter what the outcome happens to be.
