Rape, Not Rape Part Deux

Rape has become one of the most overused words in the country's current lexicon.  Why?  Because it's been reduced to a weapon, a threat, a minor accusation, and most importantly, a shakedown.  Consider the recent updates to two of the most published "rape" claim stories.

Rape Bait??

First, let's review the claims of the venal narcissist Lena Dunham.  Breitbart News did a thorough investigation of her claim of rape by "a mustachioed Republican named Barry" while she was a student at Oberlin College.  On this blog I have reviewed her specious claim, along with related misandry issues by radical feminists at length in previous columns here, and here.  As dubious as they were when alleged, Ms. Dunham's claims have now been exposed as almost completely fabricated.  The superb journalists at Breitbart give her the benefit of the doubt, and that's a noble gesture, but is much like giving the infamous shakedown actor Tawany Brawley the benefit of doubt.  

But wait - what of the poor man whose life is ruined by this vile misandrist's yet to be retracted accusations?  He's living in fear that the liberal press will find him and harass him with this total fantasy nonsense.  "Have you raped anyone else?" shouted by liberal harpies can be heard even outside of his darkest nightmares.  But our good Lena, adored by All The Right People, knows and feels nothing but the glow of her own self aggrandizement.  And the sparkle of the $3.7 million she got from Random House, publishers of her unbelievably disgusting book.

Guilty Until Proven Innocent?

Second, let's review the idiocy surrounding Jameis Winston's alleged rape accusation, which we exposed as bogus last year on this blog.  Guilty until proven innocent, Mr. Winston's is faced with defending himself at his Florida State University student conduct hearing.  In a statement prepared for the hearing, Winston says his accuser willingly danced with him, entered her number into his phone, and traveled back to his dorm in a cab with him and friends.  Quoting from that statement:

Almost immediately upon our arrival, (NAME REDACTED) and I went into my bedroom. We were standing facing each other, kissing and touching each other's bodies. I eventually asked (NAME REDACTED) if she would perform oral sex on me. She said that she would. The lights in my bedroom were on and (NAME REDACTED) willingly performed oral sex on me. While (NAME REDACTED) was performing oral sex, I was close enough to my dresser to reach over to it, open a drawer, and retrieve a condom. (NAME REDACTED) and I also engaged in intense foreplay and heavy petting during the same period that she was performing oral sex.... (NAME REDACTED) assisted me in putting on the condom. I stood on the floor with (NAME REDACTED) on the bed and we engaged in consensual sexual intercourse. After sometime in this position, we changed positions. I got on my bed on my back and (NAME REDACTED) got on top of me. (NAME REDACTED) conduct and other verbal expressions left no doubt that our sex was consensual.
I recall hearing Chris and Ron outside of my room. The door to my room was broken so the door could not close fully or be locked. At some point, Chris came into the room. (NAME REDACTED), who was still on top of me, saw Chris and told him to get out of the room.

As Winston's friends continued to interrupt him and his accuser in flagrante delicto , the quarterback states that she pressed him for more privacy, so they went into the bathroom where they continued. Afterward, Winston says he chauffeured his lady friend to her dorm upon his scooter. Winston's accuser has demanded $7 million from him.  This blackmail includes a slanderous charge that will hang over him for the rest of his life. "Rape is a vicious crime," Winston declared. "The only thing as vicious as rape is falsely accusing someone of rape."

Well said, Jameis, well said.  As we see, it's all about a shakedown for money.  It's about misandrists setting up men in "honeypot" shakedown stings.  And it has nothing to do with rape.
