Michigan High School Chooses To Protect Star Basketball Player Instead Of His Rape Victims | ThinkProgress

Michigan High School Chooses To Protect Star Basketball Player Instead Of His Rape Victims | ThinkProgress:

"Unfortunately, that’s a message that students across the country are receiving from their school administrators. Society’s pervasive victim-blaming rape culture has consistently valued sports stars over rape victims — a dynamic that was particularly evident during the events that unfolded in Steubenville, OH earlier this year."

This culture needs to dethrone jocks as citizens with special rights. No athletic scholarships! Brain power over physical power.  Ha ha, joke of the day, fat chance.
