Let me help clarify. Mohammad Atta was hiding (and seeking) the soap, whereas Marwan al Shehhi was giving the passengers naked hugs in the deserted first class bathroom.
The interesting twist is that Khalid Shaikh Mohammed was demonstrating the paper towel tube test to the flight attendants to prove that nothing that Atta or al Shehhi did was possible.
As a result of all this, United Airlines now serves chocolate covered cherries instead of pretzels.
Foolish dolt. You’ve neither proven me wrong nor scored any kind of victory. I merely acknowledged a tall man could have sex with a shrt person in that sort of position, which is far too vague and leaves far too many “material difference” to apply to Sandusky.
Nope, I said it. Eventually. After no one, despite much angry insistence that it was possible, seemed willing to go on record as having proved the paper towel tube test was erroneous.
But the thing is, even if you were able to prove me wrong as to the efficacy of the paper towel tube test, which no one has thus far, it would be beside the point. The point it was intended to illustrate - i.e., no rape - has been discounted by jury verdict.
The Grand Jury ruling is meaningless for the reason I described above and it proves nothing. We have courtroom trials to make final determinations and in this case the courtroom trial found as I did that no rape determination could be made on the basis of Mike McQueary’s testimony.
Again, are you sure you’re a cop? I’m not so sure, but one thing I do know is that you’re just another finger-in-your-ears denialist.
Sounds to me like they weren’t sure what he was doing but just wanted to make sure that they wouldn’t be held responsible if it should turn out at some point in the future that had been proven to be doing things he shouldn’t have which of course were far from having been proven at that point in time.
A meaningless statistic in every way it could be. For one, I never declared there were legions of people on this predominately knee-jerk liberal board who agreed with me, only that there may well have been some who hadn’t come forth who either hadn’t wanted to jump in the fray, or like many of the board’s more sensible posters, never visited the Pit.
Don’t know if you noticed, you drunken airhead, but both aspects remained in play in that stupid poll of yours.
Plus 49 posters out of all those who are active on the board is really pretty scant support for your side.
And now I shall step out to make way for NoLittlePlans, should he want to come in point out other ways or substantiate old ones in which you idiots have jumped to the wrong conclusions.
In my absence, read my words and weep/gnarl your teeth in frustration, for once again I have shown my view to be victorious and every potshot you take easily batted down.
No it doesn’t, guy who insults people like a comic book villain. You’ve acknowledged that a tall man could have sex with a short person in that sort of position. Sandusky is a tall person who could have had sex with a short person in that sort of position. You have admitted defeat. What’s different about this situation than any other? A tall person just has to bend his knees a little bit. We know that Sandusky is tall. We know that he has knees, and was capable of bending these knees (see this video- you can see distinctly at 51 seconds in that Sandusky bends his knees [easily and without any obvious pain] in order to enter the police car). So this tall person with functional knees could have adjusted his position in the slight amount necessary to have sex with a short person in that sort of position. So it’s obviously a possibility that there was rape.
It’s 49 times better than what you got. It’s like comparing the GDP of the U.S. to that of, say, Greece.
Sorry if math is hard for you. Let’s just say 49 is bigger than 1.
I’m reading this thread in bed and my wife asks what I’m doing. Despite my better judgment I answer:
“It’s this massive 120 page thread on the Dope about Sandusky. And there’s one stupid guy arguing against it.”
“Like, how? like there weren’t any rapes or what?”
“Kind of. Ok so he’s got this theory about a paper towel tube where you can’t squat down and fuck it.”
“Hmmm. That seems like it wouldn’t be hard to do. Why can’t you? Did this guy just admit that he has a small penis?”
“Ummm…I don’t know. Maybe?”
The math and numbers are meaningless. Once upon a time the majority thought the world was flat. I’m happy to be the one in fifty in this case who knows the truth.
Meh. I was about to leave and posting in haste. Wasn’t the first time; won’t be the last.
