What truth?
i havent followed this case all that closely. i assume the counter-narrative is that they were all drunk and there was some sort of consent given? not trying to be inflammatory, i am genuinely asking.

you've missed the mark badly regarding this story. it's disappointing. i guess you're a west coast bachelor w/ no kids that probably hits up bars and clubs routinely depending upon intoxication of females to get fricked but the events of this story are inarguable and that you can't see how a definitive line was crossed in this story by these individuals. you are making conscious decisions to interpret the story differently. that is on you.

This has been national news. It’s been all over the news sites, not sure what people want.

i dont know the details of this specific story, but i can tell you what people want is parity between the way a story is reported when a white person is the victim of black crime and when a black person is a victim of white crime.
if this was a story about a super drunk young black girl getting picked up and, let's say for argument's sake, not even raped but engaging in a consensual or quasi-consensual gang-bang with a bunch of white frat guys, and then left on the side of the road to be struck and killed by a passing car, it would be absolutely breathlessly reported on for literal years. there would be marches, hashtags, riots, wall to wall coverage, crying celebrities, murals, evening specials with solemn newscasters, documentaries, maybe even a movie or two. when it is reversed, even IF it makes national news, it's a day or two and done. no one knows the name Madison Brooks, but everyone knows the name of every single black victim (even when it turns out they arent victims at all) at the hands of white people from teh last decade.
PARITY. honesty. objectivity. good-faith reporting. that's what we want.

Yep....zero doubt.
Despite your username, you are a hysterical Liberal woman.
The unhinged nature of your posts have exposed you , m'lady...

Sort of similar to Cops and young black men?

Are you related to the Brooks family or close friends?

I hate it too, mate. This kind of story doesn't really happen out where I live, and the safety and lack of cultural resentment and violence and random crime is a big part of why I am staying here despite the far left politics.

can someone give me a quick synposis of what the board's general feeling is towards what happened here? is it generally believed that this was consensual?

Imo, the board seems to largely be in agreement that she couldnt legally give consent given how drunk she was. We probably would have never even heard of this if she didnt get run over after.
Every thread is dominated by a select few posters on each side and they ruin it. It is funny watching a thread where lawyers are in there being told what happens during a case like this by non lawyers. Although, we have had plenty of lawyer lawyer back and forths where its obvious we have some 'special' ones

Yes, I would say very similar to that.
But whites seeking out victimhood in public fora is new, and really took off with Donald Trump habitually seeking that status.
