She was asking for it....
Those damn rich kids think they can get away with anything, I tell you. This has been all over the news in North Carolina:
Racial tensions are running high, angry students and townspeople have marched in protest over the past week and now a violent e-mail has surfaced in the ongoing rape scandal that has gripped Duke University.
The campus has been rocked in recent weeks by allegations that three members of its lacrosse team were involved in the rape and beating of a stripper from a nearby college at an off-campus party last month. The incident led to the resignation of the highly ranked team's longstanding coach on Wednesday, a week after the cancellation of the rest of the squad's season.
The e-mail this testosterone-crazed imbecile sent is absolutely horrid. He sent this shortly after he and his friends allegedly gang-raped this young girl.
The e-mail was from an account owned by team member Ryan McFadyen, and it read [typographical errors are from original document], "tommrow night, after tonights show, ive decided to have some strippers over to edens 2c. all are welcome.. however there will be no nudity. I plan on killing the b----es as soon as the walk in and proceding to cut their skin off ... " The e-mail, signed with 19-year-old McFadyen's jersey number, 41, also invited unnamed others to join in the attack. The university reported Wednesday that McFadyen had been suspended pending a campus judicial review.

Even if he's being sarcastic, the email shows a lack of sensitivity to the incident, as well as revealing the sociopathic mind it takes to commit such an act. Another thing that gets me about this case is that a lot of poeple are indirectly saying that because this young woman was a stripper, that somehow she was asking to be raped. I thought we had moved passed this line of thinking, but I guess I was wrong. The girl is not from a rich family, like these boys, and was in college, stipping to make ends meet...that doesn't mean she was asking to be gang raped. Urgh!
