Of all of the really stupid comments in the grays that I read because I hate myself, I want to single this one out because I think it's truly a monumental achievement in tone-deafness to imagine that young black men are being more detrimentally affected by sympathetic Deadspin articles than by being MURDERED.

It's what the american justice system was designed to do from the ground up, I'm afraid. In vast swathes of this country, the purpose of breaking ground on a police station was so there would be armed men capable of hunting down and killing black people who did not submit totally to white rule. Any enforcement of law

At any rate, midnite wasn't "demonizing fat people"; (s)he was speculating that he's probably a fat fuck

I like how this terrible, terrible person must clearly be fat. Because people are fat because they are lazy and greedy and abusive to their children. Seriously, though, how is the weight of the wife or the father relevant here? The daughter wasn't starved because he ate all the food he would otherwise feed her. I

Demonizing fat people doesn't help. He's a bad fucking person, size has nothing to do with it.

Reading comprehension! I said the sexist WAY he's discrediting her work. It's not sexist to discredit the work of a female journalist because she did a shitty job. It IS sexist, however, to toss aside the hours and hours of work that the female journalist performed and assume that she let her emotions get the best of

I very clearly remember telling my close-knit group of female friends (since childhood) that I had been raped, and hearing that 2 out of the 4 of them had also been assaulted. So that makes our number 3 out of 5. Makes the UVA statistic seem pretty damn reasonable (and terrible) to me. But, you know, I could just be

Except that you haven't reported any news, nor do you even purport to have any. You simply claim to be suspicious based upon another journalist's suspicions because this one time 20 years ago he was duped, and you know some people who know some people at UVa who claim it's all made up.

The real problem, Bradley writes is that "Emotion has outswept reason. Jackie, for example, alleges that one out of three women who go to UVA has been raped. This is silly."

Not to mention the fucking sexist way he's discrediting the work of a woman journalist. She didn't do her homework, she's just letting her stupid lady-brain emotions run the show!

"white men who mistake their own chin stroking blatherings for insight" is the most apt descriptor of this particular brand of libertarian politics I've ever read. Take all my internet points!!

So basically, he thinks she's lying because that one guy said so?

I don't believe that Chicago exists. I have never been there; no one I know has ever been there (except for my friend Jackie who changed planes at O'Hare, but she said it was real snowy so it could have been a different airport covered in white paint); "Chicago" is a funny word and "City of Broad Shoulders" rings real

Ah yes, the fame and fortune that come from fabricating a story about your gang rape! What riches and notoriety await those women who spin a delightful yarn about being violated ten ways from Sunday! What exciting prizes and praise are bestowed upon them as they pretend to have been assaulted by beer bottles and/or

If I had a libertarian magazine, I'd be trying hard to avoid confirming the stereotype of libertarians as being strictly out of touch white men who mistake their own chin-stroking blatherings for insight.

Here is a quick note on rape and physiological arousal, particularly as it pertains to male victims of rape.
