Drunk Slut + 6 Coppers = Wacky Rape Hijinx! LOLXXX!
February 7th, 2008 6:16 pm by KellyDear CNN Misogynist Douchebags -
On today’s edition of CNN Headline News’ Prime News, anchor Richelle Carey reported on an incident in which an apparently inebriated woman was sexually assaulted by six police officers. From the report, I gather that the woman sought refuge in the police station while waiting for a ride in the wee hours of the morning. I guess she didn’t want to be manhandled by some creep on the street. (Ha! The joke is on her, am I right!?) The “headline” that graced the screen during the entire segment read “SLINKY BABE + 6 COPS = TROUBLE”.
No, really. See:
Do I really need to explain to you how incredibly vile it is to refer to a sexual assault victim as a “SLINKY BABE”, not to mention, sexual assault itself as “TROUBLE”? RLY!?
As a police officer is yanking this whore who was clearly asking for it poor woman’s skirt “up to her waist” (in yer own words), you are literally screaming (LITERALLY! SCREAMING!) “SLINKY BABE + 6 COPS = TROUBLE” at the victim and the audience.
The headline may as well have read, “Drunk Slut + 6 Cops = Wacky Rape Hijinx! LOLZ!”
Anywho, after firing off a complaint letter to Prime News, I clicked through your site in search of further details on the story. Prior to this, I thought - hoped - that the insensitive, victim-blaming, assault-denying headline was the work of a lone closet MRA intern at CNN. However, when I located the story - appropriately filed in the “crime” section of CNN’s news stories - I was aghast at the story’s online headline:
Cop shop hanky panky caught on camera.
Even the URL got in on the action: cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2008/02/07/sexy.pics.at.police.station.wndu
Nyuck, nyuck, nyuck. Those crazy coppers, fondling drunken hotties down at the station! What will they think of next? Forced tag team anal/oral/vaginal penetration? Maybe a six-spouted golden shower? Who knows! Sure to be plenty o’ LOLZ, though!
You. Make. Me. Sick.
Lowest regards.
- Women everywhere

lol, this is the worst kind of feminism.. The kind that feeds the antiquated notion that women are defenseless gits.
Yes, those cops behaved stupidly and unprofessionally. But yes, that woman was definitely a willing participant in what was going on. You can tell by the way she keeps climbing onto the counter and showing everyone her bum.
Rants by people trying to ’seek gender equality’ and ‘raise public awareness’ like this make other smart, successful women look like poncy douchebags. If you want to be treated equally, don’t bring your victorian baggage into the 21st century. You are no longer a dainty, mindless flower easily corrupted by liquor.. Liquor is not a magical substance that turns you into an inscrupulous sex vending nympho with no self respect because of your weak womanly mind. Let us join the 21st century now. Take responsibility for your behavior, treat both sides of the fence equally (or just tear it down) and please for the love of god get off your high overcompensating horse.

“In many states, a female who is younger than a certain age or who has consumed alcohol is unable to give consent. Sexual activity in these situation is therefore automatically considered to be rape.” [Source]
And I’d say the same if it had been a man “showing his bum” up on the counter. Drunk is drunk, and every citizen, regardless of gender, should be able to walk into a police station with the expectation that they’ll be protected instead of violated.
