This seems really close to the punchline to that old joke about a priest taking his vows in St. Peter’s in Rome, “Wow. If this is poverty, I can’t wait for chastity.”

Right, just like a University like UVA would never suspend all fraternities, or Duke would never suspend the Lacrosse team and fire the coach without “a preponderance of evidence”. This would never happen. So I guess, we know everything we need to know, to come to a final conclusion right now. Guilty (off with his…

so we don’t know anything

Maybe you have some physical details on this boy that we don’t, because he was assaulted for no other reason than not wanting to be hazed.

Thankfully, the Gawker media comments section has decided he is definitely a rapist over the last few days. You people seriously never learn.

The reason why this dumb guy and his dumb thoughts struck such a nerve is because fans of European soccer will instinctively go to the mattresses over even the mention of turning the Champions League into a sponsorship-maximizing, big team-favoring, rigged tournament like MLS or the like.

Of course, the day after No Gay Thursday is known as Casual Biday.

The Premier League is the most entertaining league at the moment with by far the closest gap between the top and bottom teams. Entertaining and being competitive does not equal having the best teams in Europe.

European Super League will happen. You’re insane if you prefer the horrible CL format over that. At best, great matchups don’t occur until the quarterfinals. With a super league, you’ll have multiple A+ matchups every single week.

Ask questions, dare to disagree, don’t let others shout you down, don’t agree with the consensus if the consensus is wrong. I was once called a fascist for defending Ayaan Hirsi Ali, I survived. I didn’t grow tentacles or sprout Trump hair from the top of my head as a consequence. I would defend her again, she’s a…

But that’s not what they do here. The instant Sexual assult is brought up the man is instantly guilty.

What the hell does the picture have to do with the story, though? What does it have to do with the outrage that these women lied about being assaulted? Are you suggesting that if a white person lied about assault from a black person today that the black person would be lynched? I realize that racism still exists, but…

i would think we would have learned to let the legal process play out first

No. It really doesn’t. It’s a distraction and derailing of the article above.

I KNOW what the picture is of, thank you. I’m sure a lot of people here do, too.

This is the least clever comment ever.

And they'd go triple apeshit if someone said "maybe the victim did something to incite the attack"

False accusations do not just destroy the credibility or reputation of the accuser but of every single actual victim who attempts to seek justice.

“So do we now stop defending black women because of what happened?”

To be fair, if some white students lied about being attacked by black students, you guys would go apeshit. I think the backlash has been more than fair considering.
