Massimo Deportado Rapist Another democrat in good standing. You parents are entirely to blame for this rape. October 18, 2011 at 4:49 pm | Reply

Massimos an ass Oh clearly. Because the rapist should not be accountable for his actions, right? I mean, if youre a protester, and especially a Democrat, this is what you deserve, right, you fucking idiot? October 18, 2011 at 5:24 pm | Reply

John Galt Of course she didnt deserve this!! But there is a point there, unlike the Occupy movement Tea Partiers have families and jobs to go home to. If young females choose to share a tent with a strange men at a rally I dont think her parents did an acceptable job of preparing thier Daughter for the tough realities of life. I also blame the organizers overall acceptance of the drugs, public sex, unsanitary living conditions, etc. The Ironic thing is that they need a few 2nd Amendment wackosto protect the weakest and most vunerableagainst the predatory practicesof idiots like this guy, the one that crapped on the police car, and the other mindless children that think shouting and getting arrested for public trespass is democracy, democracy is far more boring and time consuming, it takes work and I question openly the work ethic of anyone demanding someone elses money. October 18, 2011 at 6:22 pm It Really Isn't Like the Tea Party I dont think that Massimo stated that the rapist isnt accountable for his actions. The idiot Occupy Cleveland organizers (who asked a 19-year old girl to share a tent with a man) are directly responsible. October 18, 2011 at 6:27 pm Wilhelm The Sad There are significant reasons to doubt this womans story, just because a woman says she was raped does not prove that she was.

Ted You noble defenders of the virginal young woman have no more knowledge of the facts that those who feel she deserved it, so youre equal idiots. Was she raped? possibly, but its highly doubtful.Since she didnt make a sound, either she was somehow subdued either by the assailant or by possibly drugs and liquor. If the latter, was she unable to consent, or did she consent at the time, under the influence? You dont know. But of course, no woman has ever claimed to be raped when she knew she wasnt, so you have that going for you which is nice as Bill Murray would say. October 18, 2011 at 7:29 pm Chuckster Unless shes alleging a one percenter snuck into her tent, whats she complaining about? Surely shes not upset that a member of the 99 shared her body with her? Whats her beef, that she has a right to what is hers? Nonsense. She should share with those less fortunate!

damonous Whats really incomprehensible to me (a gainfully employed American; lets just clear that up, off the bat), is the venom which people on this thread almost unilaterally have for their fellow man. The comments run the gamut of ridiculous, ranging from why is CBS not reporting allegedcorporate greed(as if its not a giventhat Corporations, by nature/definition are greedy), to that the (alleged) rape victim deserved itbecause of her perceived political affiliation. So, Id like to know: If youre so *against* the Protesters, does that mean you LIKE 9% and rising Unemployment in this country? Are you forthat, then? Do you LIKE that an elite set of Bankers and Corporate Financiers got handed YOUR tax money on a platter & not a one did any kind of prison time for it? Are you forthat, then? Do you LIKE the continual pandering by candidate Aor B mouthing nonsense about Main Street, while only passing laws that assist Wall Street(Corporations, Banks, etc)? Are you forthat, then? There is a difference between Free Enterprise (which America *should* be) and Capitalism (which America is). And, if you took the time to understand the basic definitions of economic-political philosophies, youd know that Communism, Socialism, and/or Fascism is actually what our society most closely adheres to in its fiscal policies & enforcement. Yeah, I suppose some of you are right: these people just MUST be wrong, and therefore Democrats, because of course the 8 years of Republican expenditures before Obama was so much better (not that Obama isnt worthless). When will anyone ever learn that the lesser of two evilsis still EVIL? October 18, 2011 at 6:46 pm | Reply

Maria Louisa She didnt deserve it but she was tempting fate by sharing her tent with a strange man. Shame on the organizersfor suggesting such a rooming arrangement. Too bad she went along with it. There are all kinds of power struggles in this world, as she now knows. Wall Street was the least of her problems, apparently. October 18, 2011 at 7:12 pm | Reply Ted What youve just demonstrated is that even a gainfully employed Americancan be a complete moron. corporationscannot be greedy by nature. People who run them attempt to maximize profitswhich the corporation ought to be doing for the benefit of its shareholders, for the benefit of its workers, and for the good of the economy and yes, even government..Only when they exceed the limits of the law should they be legally accountable. The bigger problem for you is that you appear to have bought into the idea that corporations are the problem when, in fact, they are part of the solution if any solution is still possible. It is government, and specifically Democrats who brought the financial crisis about, and now its Democrats who are not only keeping us from doing whats necessary cutting government, removing regulations, selling assets, and expanding energy exploration, but they are attempting to waste still more vast sums of money well, not exactly waste, but POCKET vast sums Your second paragraph is just gibberish, However, your third paragraph is dead on, so maybe youre not a complete moron after all. Unfortunately, conservatives have managed to overlook the fact that not only are Republicans responsible for setting in motion the events that lead Obama & Co. to do what theyve done, but Bush actually made Obama possible..But that only means you shouldnt excuse Democrats and liberals who have exacerbated the problems exponentially. Nor should you overlook the fact that were it not for the constitution, Obama would make historys great dictators look like pikers.

No one deservesto be assaulted. We can shake our heads at her foolishness and naivete. We can seek justice for the perpetrator. But do not say that she deservedit. That is just wrong. I have no love for OWS. I think the best of them are simply mad at the wrong target (which is government). I think most of them are just ignorant dupes. I think the worst of them are deliberate agitators and agent provokateurs. But we who lean right should not perpetuate stereotypes about how we are hate filled bigots. Saying that anyone deserved to be raped reinforces the worse stereotypes of the left about conservatives. We need to be better than that. October 18, 2011 at 6:49 pm | Reply

Recovering Republican These vile and hateful comments are exactly why this recovering Republican has only contempt for the conservatives speaking for the party today. No woman deserves to be raped for any reason under any circumstances. And there is no excuse whatsoever for any man to ravage a womans being. Those who take such glee in such a heinous crime only reveal their own small minds, hard hearts, and evil souls. October 18, 2011 at 6:56 pm | Reply

Ted Youre right, no woman deserves to be raped but you dont know that she was. That doesnt invalidate your comment as long as its abut the overarching principle, however. And I should mention that its the sort of comments youve complained about that have caused me to dislike conservatives more than liberals, even though Im as conservative as they come. My long experience in conservative forums made me realize that a large number really are heartless, and they will defend their guyswrongdoing every bit as much as liberals. For example, its the rare conservative who will blame Bush for anything, much less label him the evil that he is. October 18, 2011 at 7:44 pm | Reply Connie Recovering Republican, my left foot. Look, if you are now and always have been, a flaming liberal, just own up to it. There is no such thing as a recovering Republican. There certainly is no such thing as a conservative who relishes rape of a woman. Know what I think? You are a liar. Big, fat, phony, liar. You are now, and always have been, a liberal.

Ted Even if youre right, she could become a conservative tomorrow, but youll always be a jackass. And I say that as one conservative to a so-called other. October 18, 2011 at 8:06 pm kbernatovich This type of behavior is occuring in nearly every city where this protest is occuring. Funny thing is I still have no idea what they are protesting.

Im just glad they didnt have any of his Fast and Furious guns or other people would have gotten hurt. Usually its an innocent Mexican or an American Hero like Brian Terry (Semper Fi Brian them bean bags they made you fight with were no match against Obamas Fast and Furious guns and bullets ) that gets killed by them . The father should be put in jail.

Sharon I was at Woodstock, I was young and dumb and had no idea of what it would be like. But, if someone I did not invite tried to crawl into my sleeping quarters (thats right, uninvited) I would have raised holy hell. She should have done the same.

Ted I dont disagree with your overall point, but one cant should haveanything, and you and I dont know the exact circumstances. We dont even know if she was capable of should having.She may have been zonked on something. If you were at Woodstock, you know that no one expected to be raped at a festival of peace and love, and many people probably did many things they never did before and would never do again. October 18, 2011 at 7:54 pm | Reply Mark These kids surround themselves with the liberal dregs of society and they act surprised when they get ripped off, or in this instance raped? I think anyone with a lick of common sense would understand that if you keep company with the morally bankrupt, you are sure to get burned. October 18, 2011 at 7:37 pm | Reply

Ted Theres nothing that develops common sense faster than a horrifically bad experience. She was likely a naive young woman, deeply influenced by peers and teachers, and that may have caused her to learn the hard way. October 18, 2011 at 7:49 pm | Reply Maha Bone The student went to school Monday and told a teacher about her sexual assault incident in Public Square which is being classified as kidnapping/rape prompting the teacher to immediately contact the authorities. what does that even mean? something tells me the Womens Studies department is in on this.

Dont we really know what happened here? October 18, 2011 at 7:46 pm Ted No, we dont, but people with little minds apparently do.

frank s. The teacher contacted authorities. That must mean the police. So these authoritieshave the right to enforce the law.

BobK3436 the occupy crowds mill around chanting about how much they hate America and more pointedly how they hate people who worked hard to become sucessful. any suggestion that they are reasonable people has to be questioned.

I mean, like really gross! And you regret it now that youre sober? TOTALLY! Well, then yes, you were raped. Im sooo sorry dear! But we wont take this lying downlike you didlast night. Today!
