Duke Drama

I've debated whether or not to post this but hey what the heck; these are my thoughts, my opinions; feel free to totally disagree.

I assume most of you have heard the story of three Duke students who have been accused of assaulting a women they hired from an escort service for a party they were throwing.

As to whether these men assaulted this woman in some way; I have no idea. I lean in that direction, but I have no real way of knowing. Is this woman a credible source of information? I say most definitely not. Will there be justice in this situation? I hope so, but I doubt it. I think at this point there is no clear indication of what happened so realistically I'm not sure justice can be served.

That's actually not what this post is about. This post is about a sixty minutes special aired this week. I didn't see the whole thing, I just saw snip-its of indignant Duke student parents. They couldn't believe that someone was "doing this" to their sons. And by "doing this" I assume they meant falsely accusing their sons of assault.

Their shock I found to be somewhat shocking. Their sons hired this woman. Their sons were at this party. I guess my thoughts are really, what do you expect? Immorality begets immorality. If you live by the sword, you die by the sword. You've made your bed, now lie in it.

I guess I kind of feel like they deserve all this scrutiny, all this drama, because you know what? Thay put themselves in that position.

Those Duke students aren't innocent one way or another; assault or not. No one walked away from that party with clean hands.

I could go farther with this and I might, but I think this is a good start.
