The basic jist of the story is that two "exotic dancers" who go to a nearby college were hired to preform at a party for Duke's lacrosse team. One of the dancers, who is black, was pulled into a nearby bathroom where she was held down and raped for 30 minutes or so by 3 white individuals. Duke's president has suspended the team from playing while the investigation takes place. Every white member of the team has provided an oral swab for possible forensic testing and a state-involved investigation is underway.
Duke's president met with a group of students today. Here's a small write-up on it |

Duke is growing crazy...At an anti-sexual violence march, the lacrosse's teams photos and names were publically posted.
Some African-Americans are calling for harsher penalties, but given the lack of proof, that is not yet necessary. Even if none of the athletes were part of what happened, the fact that it happened at their party is going to get them into some kind of trouble.
I guess there are some charges that racial slurs were thrown about which could make turn this into a federal race crime case |

| I'd like to clarify that no one is sure that the rapists are athletes. This girl was raped an athletes party and the team is suspended from play until we learn what happened |

| Too bad. Duke's a good team too; Danowski's a rising star and probably the best player in the entire country. I hope it wasn't him, I'll have lost a hero |

The chick's an exotic dancer. I'm not implying that she deserved anything, but I am implying that there's a good chance she either loved the gangbang or is a scheming bitch.
Also, Virgina vs. Navy in the finals...
I don't see Johns Hopkins runnin without Kyle Harrison. |
