"...Those who believe no woman should have to bear responsibility for their actions...and men (black men) are abusive savages, have convicted you prior to hearing one piece of evidence."

Are you saying that women who are raped are at fault? If so, please explain how an 82 year old (African American) grandmother I knew lured in her stranger (also African American) rapist in through her locked and then broken kitchen window and then encouraged her rapist to beat her in the head with a gun, knock out a few of her teeth during his assault all in the middle of the night?

Maybe she was lonesome for company, or wait, maybe she was after his money? Oops, she was asleep when her rapist broke in. She had never met her rapist prior to his unexpected arrival.

Rape is not about sex, it's about rage and violence against a victim perceived to be weak. Rape is not about racial discrimination. Grow up.

No woman who is raped is at fault. However, was the guy who stopped but not soon enough after the girl said no during intercourse in California guilty of rape. I think not, but California told him to spend 20 years to life in jail.

Was the drunken girl who went into the guy's dorm room, lay down with him and regretted her actions a couple of days later raped. I don't think so, but I would guess alot of Freepers would think so.

Does race play a part in rape? I agree with you, no. Does race play a part in who is charged with and who is convicted of rape? I would disagree with you and say yes.

Grow up? No, you grow up.
