Again, the difference is we say we dont know for sure but we "think" she was just grabbing for the gold. You on the other hand make comments that he "is" a rapist. You cleverly change your tune from "is a rapist" to "alleged rapist", from "he raped her" to "assume he raped her" depending on your argument.
Of course being promiscuous doesnt mean she can't be raped. Please show me where that was implied. It wasnt an attack of character at all. It's the facts. Along that same line of thought you introduce, how does being a jerk teamate translate into being capable of rape?
The facts are that the womans story wasnt adding up. One min shes crying rape, the next min she bragging abut the sex. I can certainly make a case for a girl with a promiscuois background and less then stellar mental state for concocting a story for monetary gain a lot easier than i can make the leap from bad teamate to rapist.
Again, nobody will know... the only difference is the people that tend to believe that she made it up dont bring it up as a FACT on nearly a daily basis. It's over....and time to move on. Your kobe hate just wont let you though will it? And every sucess he has just eats at you and you ever so sadly have to pull out the rapist BS to negate it.
There you go again, first it was raped, then it became alledgely raped, now we are back to "was vicioulsy raped"! That's a statement of fact that you yourself have said you assumed and actually have no knowldege of. The law took Kate Farbers side too thus the indictment. Her story wasnt holding up and she chose to cash out. That is on her. She most certainly could have persued the case if she was truthful and wanted vindication. She made her choice. That you cant live with it is meaningless.
Not sure what your point is here. You have implied that Kobe got off because he is a Laker and has the cash yet you use two other celebs with cash as examples to prove your point that the law can indeed garner convictions against high profile persons. The logic I was using was not to imply that Kobe never raped the girl. I have always said it was possible. It was to point out that she had a history. In other words, it's not like she was a Mother Teresa who's word would have held more weight. Facts are she chose to cash out. She chose not to persue it and the authorities saw enough holes in her story to hinder a sucessfull prosecution. Aparently Tupacs and Tyson prosecutors had more solid cases and victims(I can call them that cause the perps WERE convicted)
Where have you been the last half century? Do you at all have a clue whats going on out there? How outlandish that ther should be some spanking or choking going on during a passionate sexual romp. God yes...that looks terribly worse than the several loads in her pussy from the various guys over the weekend.
Again, nobody has said it DIDNT happen. Why cant you grasp that? What I am saying is it doesn't help her credibility. It could have happend. I just as easly couldn't have. The only one in this argument who posts as if "it DID happen" is YOU! Of course followed by your ever wavering "did" and "alleged" comments. Ill tell you this, it would have helped her credibility a lot more had she chose to see it through rather than take the money and run.
You brought up the morals issue with your "I actually have morals and respect, so I actually care when somebody rapes another person" statement of fact that as you have already admitted is just your assumption. Morals is a broad term. Some people feel that sex out of wedlock is immoral. Some feel that attempting suicide is immoral. Again, apparently morals only count when they are in your favor. If you want to go to the core of morals which is simply the difference between right and wrong, maybe you shouldn't be tossing out conjecture as facts
I beg to differ. Both Kidd and Iverson have been arrested on multiple occasions for criminal behaviour and you dont hear them everyday. I'd be willing to bet i could look up your posts in threads regarding them and find very little comments like you made about Kobe today and that was my point. It's ridiculous the degree the haters go. You couldnt even post to an thread on why contract negotions with the Lakers have been bersome without throwing out the Kobe is a rapist comment. Kobe has the one incident. Oh, thats right, I'm forgetting that arguments with teamates over basketball issues directly translate into criminal behavour. Silly of me to think multiple physical battery and firearms incidents are equally relevant.
Again, believing he did it and stating it as fact are completely different. Someday you will grasp it.
Yet she didnt persue it... and in this country you are innocent until proven guilty. But you are a loser who doesn't vote anyway so you really have no say on how the country is run.
Arrrrrggggghhhh
How many times does it have to be said. Many say they have no clue what happend. You yourself have said only those 2 know. Some, like you, believe rape happend. Others like me belive she was gold digging.
The big difference is... We are not the ones brining it up all the time as a "fact" in an argument about basketball that has nothing to do with it in the first place. I have yet to hear someone bring up Kate Farber in an argument for or against a basketball comment about the Lakers or Kobe. On the other hand, we hear about Kobe the rapist often as a retort.
This was your creative input to a discussion about free agent talks with the Lakers.
Enough said....
