I'll bet you can't answer one simple question. Was Duke Lacross a case of legitimate rape?

It was a false accusation. There was nothing but malicious intent behind it, and the person who made that accusation should have been thrown in jail. That being said, I highly doubt most cases are like that.

Just because it doesn't clear reasonable doubt doesn't mean it shouldn't be brought to trial.
If a guy pumps drinks into a girl without drinking himself or puts drugs in her system just to have sex with her, that is rape.
The issue that has always worried me is the drinking/drug/sex party scenario. If a woman makes the decision to have sex with someone, I think it is wrong to backtrack and claim rape. That being said, drugs and alcohol lower inhibitions for both parties. Unfortunately, it can easily turn into a he said she said, and I don't know any real way to deal with that other than fall back on the burden of proof being without a reasonable doubt.
