DOJ Foot-Dragging On Prison Rape Unites Left-Right Coalition

Wednesday, August 18, 2010


As to your second point, I'm not putting words or thoughts into your mouth.



I said, "You are proving my point", which was:



=="I think that is one reason why the DoJ and Holder (in spite of being male) exhibit no sense of urgency, because it's a sex crime against men. Whether it's about Holder and other men at the DoJ being unconscious about the crime of rape (not wanting to think about men being violated by other men, for so many reasons) or something else (that to many men, all sexual activity is wanted sexual activity), their failure to act on this affects all of our lives."==



You then challenged the frequency or pervasiveness of the act against men based on no facts, which you admit, just a hunch on your part). What was your intent, if not to dismiss it as a less serious problem than when women are raped?



My point was that people tend not to want to look at the problem of men being raped, and look for ways to avoid it. And then you tried to provide a reason to avoid it, thereby proving my point.

DOJ Foot-Dragging On Prison Rape Unites Left-Right Coalition


What I am saying is that we do not know which sex gets raped more because we have no figures. We do know that men, women and children are victims of rape. We do not know what the figures are. So saying 'more men are raped than women' cannot be accurate.

======================================



What we do know is that of the rape that is known, that is reported, more men are raped than women. That's the DoJ reporting.

Obama: 'No Regrets' Over Ground Zero Mosque Comments


Was he correct when he said that they have the right (to build), or when he said they shouldn't (build)?

Obama: 'No Regrets' Over Ground Zero Mosque Comments


Did you know that the photo the other day of Obama & his daughter swimming "in the Gulf of Mexico" (so that people would travel to the Gulf states and spend their vacation dollars there, that the water was safe), that Obama & Sasha weren't actually swimming in the Gulf of Mexico? http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/president-goes-for-a-swim-in-the-gulf-ndash-or-does-he-2053567.html



Few know this because this story about the building of a m0sque in NYC has obliterated all other news in the media.

Obama: 'No Regrets' Over Ground Zero Mosque Comments


0bama does not support the builing of the M0sque. He supports the right for them to build it which both sides already agree on. He basically said nothing. If he supported building it he would say he supported building it, not that they had a right to build it which no one is arguing and everyone already knows.

=======================================



So why open his mouth in the first place?



Your description of what 0bama did is classically called a "disinformation campaign".



It why (and how) those who voted for him are angry, confused, and arguing among themselves about who he is and what he stands for.



0bama's purpose was not to bring clarity to the furor and lead Americans out of the miasma of the past decade decade, but to restoke the raw fears and ig.no.rance that were exploited after nine eleven to get us into war$ of choice for profit by the richest.



For whatever the reason (to prevent us from discussing real issues in these weeks before the mid-term elections, or to keep us in endless, losing war$ in Afghan!stan & lraq, or expand them into lran as is being reported), he brings no clarity or vision or resolution to the issue with his remarks.



This is not leadership.
