Cute, blond, drunk college athletes seem to get a pass; whereas, their drunk victims are crucified as sluts.

I sent the following to my local paper this week and it was published as a letter to the editor today.

Usually on this site, I talk about puppies and roses.  Sometimes not.

“Do you remember in the long-ago past hearing one disrespectful man ask another whether he “got any action last night”?

This is the word the father of “the Stanford Rapist” used when defending his son, essentially asking if that son should be punished for “20 minutes of action.” He is not asserting that his son did not do it, just that it was a quickie.

If the amount of time a crime takes is a significant criterion, I guess a mass murder with an Uzi that took 20 seconds would be a misdemeanor.”
