REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

YOUR COMMENTS

Gang raped a girl with hundreds watching and videoing, misguided and need counseling. This poster has always come right to the line of a troll, but this one is too far. This is a rape apologist and they do not belong on DU. To excuse gang rape of a girl does not deserve jail time is barbaric and this poster throws out an offensive flame and makes no further comment. Skinner should take a look at this posters history.
