The Rantings of SpikeRants

For years now, women have been using abuse and rape and threats to get their way. Anybody remember the Kobe Bryant issue? That's when I started to think to myself, "Hey, a woman would lie about rape for personal gain!"

Before, I believed any girl who would say she was raped.

Oh, before I go any further, I don't believe EVERY woman who says she was raped is a liar. And for anybody who thinks I'm a misogynist, my wife was raped when she was 13-14 for seven months. Don't say I don't know first hand what that can do to a woman.

Anyhew, I had a girl lie about being "raped" when she was drunk. She was only telling me that so she could get away with not being a virgin in case we ever got together. A few months later, I learned she was the PetsMart bicycle.

So, everybody's peeved that she lied about being attacked by Hispanics. What about her saying that they threatened to rape her? All lies are bad, but this one is going unnoticed.

So, has society gone to the point that if any woman says that she was raped, or abused, or whatever, we automatically believe her? If I called the police and said that my wife beat me, they'd laugh. If I called a shelter looking for help to take me and my son away from my (fictionally) abusive wife, what do you think would happen? Yup, I'd be told "Men don't get beat up without reason. What did you do to her to make her DEFEND herself? We'll send a car to take your abused wife and son away from YOU."

This girl lied. She lied about being attacked. But, she lied about them threatening to rape her. That's terrible. She's smart in not saying that they DID, because that would have been proven wrong in a second with a rape kit.

But think about it. Vanilla Ice was in prison because his wife said he beat her. She changed it to pushed her. He says she was hitting him. I don't know who to believe. Knowing his history, and his desire to tear up things (as seen on MTV and "The Surreal Life"), I kinda believe her. But he was put in prison on HER WORD ONLY.

A few years ago, I read a story about a man who woke up, went to breakfast in a cab, ate there, took a cab to a doctor's appointment, finished up there, took a cab to his job, and worked the rest of the day.

Meanwhile, two girls around 13 years old and one of their boyfriends were skipping school. The young couple proceeded to have sex. Then they were caught being truant, whereupon the girls said they were kidnapped and raped. The police became very concerned and showed them some photos from drivers licenses. They pegged this guy with a ton of witnesses as the rapist. He was tried. The witnesses came out. The jury still sent him to jail. He spent a couple years in trying to prove his innocence.

THESE GIRLS LIED ABOUT RAPE AND SENT AN INNOCENT MAN TO PRISON.

This Athens girl lied about a rape threat. But nobody cares. Maybe it's time we start caring.
