The Duke rape case the MSM won’t cover

By Michelle Malkin  •  June 29, 2009 11:38 AM

It’s truly monstrous and evil.

But you won’t see wall-to-wall coverage on MSNBC or in the New York Times.

The alleged rapist is a prominent gay health researcher at Duke University.

The victim is his own adopted, five-year-old son, whom he offered up on the Internet to other molesters.

Thomas Lifson and Mike Adams do the job the selective media won’t do.

    I hope he gets sent to prison in the general population. He won’t last very long.

    If this were a woman who molested a teenage boy it would be front page news.

    Covering up homosexual violent crimes is not new – it’s routine. The socialist agenda cannot be maligned.

    Ironically, it’s a few gays that have have the integrity to cover the story.

    Sounds like one of the many leeches on society that is bringing this nation down. Do children have dreams of some day becoming a “health-disparities researcher.” Never in my wildest dreams would I imagine that such a job even existed. Unfortunately a quick internet search brought up hundreds of articles filled with the leftist jargon of social justice , unequal access, income disparities etc… This destructive PC garbage has wormed itself into every corner of our dying nation.

    I wish I could say this was a surprise. But it ain’t.

    In 1999, just under a year after the MSM and the Democrats made gay robbery/murder victim Matthew Shepard world famous (with an assist from Fred Phelps & Westboro Baptist Church), there was a case in Oklahoma about a 13-year-old boy named Jesse Dirkhising whose parents allowed him to hang out and stay with two of their gay friends.

    Jesse ended up dead after suffocating.

    While being hogtied and duct-taped.

    After playing a “sex game” with the two men.

    With his own dirty underwear stuffed in his mouth.

    The media twisted itself into Lettermanesque pretzels trying to explain why they didn’t want to cover the Dirkhising story when they couldn’t get enough Matt Shepard.

    – Matthew and his attackers were gay
    – Matthew was straight, and his attackers were gay

    Bottom line: Matthew winds up dead in all scenarios….sooooo….would all of those scenarios be considered a hate crime?

    That is CORRECT. The so-called “gay panic” defense devised by one of the thugs’ lawyers presumed that local sentiment might be receptive to the idea that Shepard was attacked only after he made an unwanted advance. The videotaped confession that didn’t contain that detail and other firmly-established accounts of the evening (including the testimony of the assailants’ girlfriends, who met them after the crime) contradicted that angle.

    Rarely mentioned is that Shepard’s killers also attacked some Hispanic teens in their hunt for cash that night. The only role Shepard’s gayness played was that because he was on the make in a known gay hangout, it was easy for the killers to get him out of the bar and into their truck.

    Will there be a candlelight vigil organized by students at the injustice of his being held guilty before going to trial? A “gay person” is being persecuted after all. LOL!

    Watch for his profession and standing in the academic gay community to be part of his defense strategy.

    Drudge is linking the story now. But the link is so low on Drudge’s page that it will barely be noticed.

    For goodness sake.

    I did not say it was a top story at HuffPo nor did I say it was a top big three story.

    All I was doing was trying to make the point that not all left-wingers are as crazy as you might think. Even in the comments many are calling for the death penalty.

    It should be noted that both HuffPuff and Drudge are posting this story at the bottom of their pages. HuffPuff dedicates more column inches of space to this story than does Drudge but Drudge is most often extremely terse.

    I’ll pray for the child(/ren), the terrible scars they’ll bear for life because of that sicko is painful to think about.

    I just don’t understand how anyone could do that. It’s such defective behavior that I can only think of one remedy to make sure he doesn’t do it again.

    hmm, a creepy man with white skin molesting little black boys? Who does this remind me off??? How about MJ. I know I shouldn’t speak ill of the dead, but what does it take for a liberal to recognize that certain things are not excusable and should not be forgotten?

    Of course you don’t understand how anyone can do that. You are not a pervert! Your brain isn’t warped beyond belief! You don’t call “evil” good and vice versa.

    It is grace and mercy. He is in no hurry to destroy, He tarries so that more can come to repentance. Time is running out though…

    There isn’t a prison cell deep enough for this scumbag. Hopefully he will be in general population and learn what it is like being on the unwilling receiving end.

    Anyone who truly believes that should form an advocacy group and work to have the 8th Amendment repealed, then lobby to have rape added to the list of punishments a judge can impose. We shouldn’t be allowing other prisoners to impose extra-judicial “punishments”. To condone anyone being raped while in state custody is obscene, and it’s a shame so many conservatives seem so comfortable with the idea.

    And yes, I believe that the death penaly is absolutely appropriate in such cases.

    This is another position that continues to baffle me. As Conservatives we are deeply skeptical of the government’s ability to wisely regulate business, health care, financial markets and a host of other things. And we are correct to be skeptical, since the government has a long track record of allowing such things to riddled with waste, fraud and abuse.

    How then can we support capital punishment? Do you think there’s a whole seperate judicial system to impose it, one guaranteed to have no Nifongs or Sotomayors in its ranks? If we don’t trust the government to pick our health insurance, how can we trust it with the power to kill its citizens?

    Don’t misunderstand, I think there are plenty of people out there who deserve to die and someone who rapes five year-olds easily makes the list. What I’m questioning is the wisdom of letting the government make that decision.

    This is true pederasty: an adult molesting a pre-pubescent child. I don’t know what else to say without worrying about going overboard and risking loss of privileges. Look here and you will see the Devil.

    And, yet, the mother that spanked her little girl recently is more rediculed in the press than this guy will be. The MSM was asking people to write in to say how they felt about spanking! There is a vast difference between disciplining a child that’s out of order and selling a kid for the pleasure of perverts… Leave it to the press to not know the difference.

    The PC commune where Perv Dad did his dirty work apparently doesn’t take kindly to reporters covering the story. Check out the Vision Statement on the Eno Commons Cohousing Community website: “We welcome residents of all ages, races, religious beliefs, and affectional
    preferences.” Affectional preferences?

    This is appropriately followed by “Valuing Children.” You can’t make this stuff up.

    James Felix, the government does not make that decision, 12 men and women of the jury, who listened to all the evidence presented make those decisions. And then Umpteen Jillion judges review that decision over and over and over again.

    The government decides who gets charged and who doesn’t. The government decides when to seek the death penalty and when not to. The government decides what evidence will and will not be admitted. Among those umpteen jillion judges are more than a few Ginsbergs and Sotomayors.

    If you think that’s a system that should be trusted so completely that you’d bet a life on it we’ll just have to disagree.

    Would be interested if the following information comes to light in the trial (if indicted):

    1. The Lombard application(s) to adopt – find out where the loopholes are to prevent this from happening again.
    2. How many attempts were made to adopt?
    3. Was he specific in the race/sex/etc. in the desire of whom to adopt?
    4. What “civil rights” organizations will rise up to defend Lombard?
    5. Who files amicus curiae briefs on behalf of Lombard?

    and outside of the trial:

    Will anyone ask Nifong where he stands on this issue or will MSNBC use him as an expert commentator?

    It has been a facinating afternon of reading on this story. Reading here led me to DU to check them out, which led back here and then to Mike Adams’ blog and last….veering off to google after a reading truly weird libtard comment….. to, I kid you not….a website dedicated to getting ex-DA Nifong reinstated. Looks like that has only two posters really. Must be friends or family. LOL! Unbelievable. Then it was home again, home again, jiggity jog to Michelle Malkin and a measure of sanity. What a long strange trip its been.
