Tuesday, February 20: Greetings! This post is closed. There’s been an arrested in the second Duke rape case, so continue the discussion here.
Update (2/14): Alleged victim is white; alleged rapist is black. Hmm…what broad social commentary will feminists come up with now? Will the New Black Panthers return to Durham to lecture their “brother” on the evils of his allegedly brutish behavior? Will the Group of 88 sign another “listening” statement? If I see a single column from a feminist ranting about this incident the way they did with the lacrosse case or hear one chastising word from a black militant toward the alleged rapist, I’ll videotape myself eating a boiled rat and upload it for the world to see.

An 18-year-old Duke University student said she was raped in the bathroom at a house party early Sunday morning. The man is described as “late teens or early 20s, about 6-foot-1 and wearing a black do-rag, a gray sweatshirt and blue jeans.” (Source)
So, who was this do-ragged dude? Is he one of the “several male Duke students” living in the house?
Let’s not ask the questions we all want to ask. We’ll wait for more facts to emerge before we do that, OK? (Yeah, right!)
Whether or not a rape occurred, I hope the Durham police and DA’s office do a much better job investigating than they did in the Duke lacrosse “rape” case.
Feel free to post links and more info about this developing case. More to come…
Update: The Chronicle, Duke’s student newspaper, reports what other stories have omitted: the suspect is black. It’s important to note race as a descriptor if the alleged rapist isn’t in custody. This men-in-their-thirties-style crap is irresponsible.
