73. More insults and fiction--you are like a broken record.

You haven't made your case.

You're confusing his FREE LOVE article with his RAPE article, too. You've slapped up his softball interview with Seth Myers about the rape article, and coupled it with his college FREE LOVE article written ten years previously to the gang rape fantasy essay.

I think it's probably safe to say that you don't have a strong grasp of this story, at all.

He was 21 when he wrote the article you cited with a link. He was 31 when he wrote the rape-y one--and it's not at that link you provided.

Again, you confuse apples and oranges....you're not even reading the right article!!!

It's getting a bit tiresome, doing your homework for you.


Good grief.
