Found this article today. Interesting new dynamic to the "she was willing" crowd.

Parts of that were painfully stupid to read. I do think though that Mayo's relationship to one of the perpetrators should have been published at the top of the article;

Mayo acknowledged his ties to the Richmond family, saying he counseled Richmond when news of an alleged sexual assault began circulating in August. Before Richmond's arrest, Mayo spoke to him about the allegations.

**edit**
It just reeks of crass victim blaming by someone close to one of the attackers.

Mayo described the 16-year-old girl as the “alleged victim” and said she might have been having consensual sex. “She said her mother brought her to the party, at 3 o'clock, with a bottle of vodka,” Mayo said. “Where did you get it, young lady? You brought it from home? Where’d you get it? You came to the party with your mother.”

“They’re alleging she got raped; she’s acknowledging that she wanted to leave with Trent. Her friends say she pushed them away as she went and got into the car, twice telling them, ‘I know what I’m doing; I’m going with Trent,’” Mayo said.

“[The victim] has a strand of DNA inside her shorts that’s unidentified, and it’s nobody’s DNA that was at that party ... at that house where it allegedly happened; nobody else’s DNA that was there matched that DNA,” he says.

So because her mother dropped her off, because she wanted to go to another party with someone and because she may have had sex previously she isn't a victim? What world is he living in??

These two college football vermin could have avoided all this if they hadn't decided to molest an unconscious girl. feth them to hell. I've made it to 28 and not taken advantage of drunken girls of any age so my sympathy is absolutely zero. Why is the the amount of drink the girl had relevant when the decision to do what they did was entirely theirs. Why is the girl the one expected to take personal responsibility? What, boys can't control their urges now? The victim blamers are pathetic, at any time these boys could have stopped but instead they chose to drive around using her as a sex toy and object of humiliation. Hope they enjoy their stay in prison.

This really blends in with my experiences with local NAACP chapters i.e. they are super hit and miss between good decent folk and complete idiots.

Spot the just off the boat Irish guy who had to Google NAACP He seems determined to make it a race issue too, maybe not the best battleground for him to have chosen.

I honestly don't understand how one CAN'T achieve the bolded above. It's really not that hard. Don't be a tool, don't rape or molest people. kthxbai.

He's defending one of the players with similar ethnicity. He can suck donkey balls.

That is why i do not like the Naacp or other similar parties.
They see any act of prosecuting, jailing or similar circumstances as racism or institutionalized racism.
And the correct term in "Donkey Nuggets" frazzled.

my experiences with local NAACP chapters

I always find it facinating how everyone can turn a tragedy into something that reflects their ideology. Its like with Elliot Rodgers, him being half Asian half white has caused his crime to be blamed on white privledge by some, and some skinheads in Ohio have said that the shootings were hate crimes against whites. Oh and fox news says that he was gay and thats what caused it.

Dude, what's with the threadromancy? This thread is over a year old. You've got over 300 posts, so you're not new here.

Maybe he has E-bola?

That'd make the third resurrection, right? And the first one in the US!

So, let's put this one back to bed...
