Well, sort of, but there is more to it than that. The [Wiki article](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_lacrosse_case) is a reasonable introduction to the whole mess.

So no, it is not exactly the story that she cried rape because they didn’t want an ugly stripper.

Dude, I don’t know where you’re issues with women come from but I’ll give you some advice.

I know it sucks that you haven’t been more successful with women but you have to understand a few things.

It’s not them it’s you.

You’re not entitled to a hot chick no matter how much society tells men they’re all entitled to one.

Finally, women aren’t rejecting or ignoring you because you’re a nerd, or because you come across as too much of a nice guy, or because you don’t have money, or because you’re not good looking enough.

They’re rejecting you because you’re an asshole.

Given **Der Trihs** ’ unshakeable belief that Amerikka cares nothing about the deaths of black men, I wonder how he explains that she is going to prison for stabbing one.

And on sober reflection - **Der** has my leave to DIAF any time he sees fit, but until such time as he actually complains about his lack of success with women, the above tirade of horseshit is out of line, and doesn’t actually mean a fucking thing except that you hope that if you screech enough abuse at him he will shut up and go away. It’s not that I’d have the least objection to his doing so, but by Shaitan’s hairy bollocks couldn’t you actually come up with something justifiable to shriek about? :rolleyes:

This shtick is getting old. When ever someone brings “men’s issues” you retards always trot out this shit. Try something else like debating the point instead of ad hom’s.

I didn’t check the wiki article, but I seem to remember that the first time she mentioned rape was when she was about to be taken into custody by police who were _called at behest of the second stripper_ at a local supermarket. After crying rape, she was instead taken for a medical exam.

A few days later, she supposedly told a bouncer at the strip club where she worked that she was going to “get paid by some white boys”. So the rape allegation may also have been an extortion attempt after she thought about her options.

Firestorm ensues.

I thought the Nancy Grace skit on SNL with Amy Poehler was great, but it doesn’t seem to be available (it’s been a while since I checked).

What schtick?

Sadly enough the particularly type of sexism DT engages in usually comes from a lack of success with women and fits perfectly the “nice guy” profile.

Beyond that how old are you?

I thought most people stopped calling others “retards” once they got out of high school, though I’ll freely say I do love the irony of being called a “retard” by someone who then condemns the use of “ad hom’s(sic)”.

You do know what “ad hom’s(sic)” refers to don’t you?

Last I heard he was completely broke so I suspect he’s trying to stay out of the lime light as much as possible.

The case does raise the obvious question that if she had been prosecuted for false accusations and put in jail would her boyfriend still be alive?

Developmentally delayed. Man, I really dislike that term. News flash: the vast majority of them are never going to catch up, my niece included. She’s 52 and it’s still like dealing with an eight-year old.

I’d never even heard that term before. I thought it was “developmentally disabled”.

Sadly, we keep having to come up with new terms because all the various medical terms(idiot, imbecile, moron, and now retard) keep getting used as insults.

DD is PC term for retarded, but look that word up in a French dictionary to see what it means.

Pretty much the same thing.

Idiot, imbecile, and moron are not so polite in French.

It’s quite clear that US society punishes killers of white women more harshly than killers of anyone else. Killers of black men receive the weakest punishments.

Der Trihs is also spot on wrt to female felons getting weaker punishments than men would for the same crime. There is, in fact, an intense reluctance to give female murderers the death penalty under any circumstances.

Now, I have no idea how much DT gets laid. Probably no more or no less than any of the other board denizens. (In general, message board debaters aren’t pulling a lot of chicks.) It’s fairly obvious, though, that young women dig charismatic sociopaths, especially those with high status.

Agreed. Okay, I used to work with retards (tho’ you may be sure I never used the term in their hearing for any reason, nor referred to them as such to anyone). The rest of the comment still follows.

As for **Ibn Warraq** , it’s a well-known fact that white-knighting women on message boards is a standard tactic for dweebs to try to get themselves some pusseh. Never works, though.

ETA: Of course, “retarded” is just another way of saying “delayed”, as in ignition timing in a car. Still carries the false assumption they’re going to catch up. Ones I worked with, we figured if they could be taught how to catch a bus and buy stuff in a shop we had achieved a laudable goal; but I’d rip the beating heart out of anyone who hurt them.

My niece lives on her own, has a car and a job and will retire with a government pension as a GS-2. The enormous amount of work and support that went into her being in that position is invisible to most of the world around her. Everyone thinks that she’s so brave and special, and have no idea that the truly special people are her family, who have dealt with every screaming meltdown, every would-be predator, the annual “but what about MY birthday” crying jags and dozens of other issues. Her finances were strictly controlled by her mother (now deceased), and now by her siblings, who have guardianship of her. She is mentally handicapped, which I believe is the best descriptive for anyone who has those sorts of problems. Couching it in polite PC terms is only for us, not for them. When her mother died a few weeks ago, her response was, basically, “Well, who is going to make Christmas cookies?”

Sorry for the sidetrack; I return you all to the lying whore.
