Quick To Judge

Have you been following the news lately regarding the Duke Lacrosse rape case? This case goes something like this…

The Duke Lacrosse Team has a party. There are a couple of party girls there. Are the girls paid to be there? Unknown. Are the girls pro’s? Unknown. Allegedly one of the girls, a black girl, is gang raped by the white guys of the team.

So what happens… you got it… the Duke Lacrosse team is instantly labeled a bunch of rapist (except for the one black player) and they are subject to all sorts of accusations in the media. Don’t question whether the allegations are true, just go ahead and assume they are and create a media sensation that will draw ratings.

So, the prosecutor proclaims that DNA will tell which Duke players will be the ones that “raped” the girl. This is interesting in the fact that they had DNA to test against. So when they do test every member of the team and none come back a match, it begs the question , whos DNA is it that they tested against? Obviously it is not the Duke Lacrosse team. But let us not be deterred by the logic of this and stop pointing at the Duke team.

Then of course there is the identification of team members only AFTER the DNA came back empty. Can anyone say Eenie Meenie Minie Moe? Orginally the girls said she could not ID the perps because she was assaulted from behind. In fact, she “struggled so hard she broke off her fingernails…

What, no DNA under her nails? The guys were all wearing short sleeves, so there should be if she struggled. Oh yeah… that pesky DNA again that does not match ANY Duke team member.

So, how about looking at the Duke Lacrosse Team for scratches and cuts consistent with a struggle? Oh yeah… that would be too logical, too easy, and if it turned out that none of the players had those cuts or abrasions, well, we will have to overlook that too and blame them anyway.

Or could this all be another Kobe Bryant case with a money hungry bitch looking to cash in on a circumstance? What is that circumstance? How about being raped by a boyfriend or father? Have we looked at them? After all, the DNA she had must have come from somewhere. Maybe it was someone other than a Duke Lacrosse Team member.

But then again, that would not be good news and certainly not very interesting.
