I've had the same experience. They usually want their sons to have all the privileges granted to men by a patriarchal system but they don't wan't their own daughters disempowered by patriarchy.
No we don't. Especially when the person being accused is a poor POC or anytime the accuser is a more privileged person than the accused. It's all about where the accuser lands on the hierarchy of privilege, Wealthy > male > white > Christian > popular
I have spoken with 3 men who said they were falsely accused of rape and how it affected them but after hearing what happened from them, and by their own admission to what occurred, the "false accusation" they felt so victimized by wasn't actually false. These men just didn't understand what they had done. At that…
It just makes everyone upset
Mccain loves corporations and his policies would only make the pay gap between 1% of America and the other 99% even larger. Screw that
It can be difficult for friends to take action because you don't want to take the wrong action during a sensitive time. You want to help your friend but you also don't want to do anything against her wishes. A rape victim could already be feeling a lack of control having had someone forced on their body, it may not be…
False accusations exist for every crime yet it is only given attention when the crime is rape or sometimes domestic violence. Why is that? Another similarity between the two, both are crimes which are usually reported against men for victimizing women.
I think she may truly believe that actually happened to her. Elizabeth Seccuro, who also attended UVA and was gang raped at phi kappa psi had a very similar story to the one Jackie told. She was a victim of gang rape her freshman year of college in 1984 when she was attending a date party at phi kappa psi. She also…
You're totally right but besides the new members from this year the rest are already sophomore, juniors and seniors. So if majority of them aren't graduated by then, then they're most likely already losing at life.
It's fine to be uncomfortable with the idea of a 15 and 20 year old having sex. There are plenty of countries where that would be legal, but you can be totally uncomfortable with it and that's fine. In this country, it's illegal, and that's fine.
I don't think you understand what "rape is rape" means. By law statutory rape and non- statutory rape are both considered rape, for good reason, but they have different consequences. That's why we have different degree of rape and each carry different punishment. So the law already understands what you're saying and…
Yes and No. They should've been shut down for at least 4 years so all current members would have graduated and wouldn't be allowed to be part of greek life again. With such a short ban, the current members may be allowed to join again, which defeats the purpose of the ban. With short bans, the guys in the fraternity…
I lost around 30. So not cool IG! JK I didn't care but it was weird before I realized it was spam accounts. It was also a good reminder to keep my account private so I don't get randos adding me.
jesus christ! You're back to the felony murder? There was no felony murder. She was not committing a felony at the time any of this happened and she didn't commit a felony during. There's no evidence that proves she was an accomplice to murder of the cop either. You should really read about what actually happened,…
Everything I said is from what I read about the case. It's public knowledge, you can google her name and read about it yourself. I wasn't sure if she was all that innocent when I first read this story here and was actually leaning towards her not being completely innocent until I actually read the facts on what…
That's exactly what we're discussing here. This is unjust. The entire point is that the justice system's handling of this case is unjust! The point of the author was that what could happen to this woman is not a good thing. You, not only don't seem to care about her situation being unfair, but also think this is…
No that's not a crime and not a crime she was convicted for. She was charged and convicted for shooting the cop. The initial police statement said that she grabbed a gun that she had on her and shot one of the officer in his shoulder. That same officer then retracted his version of events and told a completely…
It's a point that has bearing on your original comment.
People are often sentenced for crimes they didn't commit. This was even more common 40 years ago, ESPECIALLY if you're black. That's what the whole issue is about here. There was no evidence to prove she was involved with the shootout but she was charged just because they didn't like her.
