The men denied her story, and probably would have been in some serious trouble, except for the fact that they had a videotape of the incident, which they showed to police, and it ultimately helped to prove that the alleged gangrape was really just your garden-variety gangbang.

I remember one time in college I spent an evening alone with a girl who I later found out had wrongly accused a guy of rape. This scared the shit out of me, because the thing about this is, as a guy, if that happens, your reputation is totally screwed, and no one will ever believe your side of the story. Luckily, nothing happened with this girl, and after I found out what she had done, I just avoided her.

So, the moral of the story is: if you’re going to engage in some crazy perverted sexual escapades with someone who you think might regret their actions, be sure to keep your camera on. Hell, it might increase your excitement a bit anyway to perform for the camera, and later on you’ll have evidence that might just save your reputation.

If you plan on a future in politics, though, you might just have a catch-22…

People who know me won’t be surprised to learn that I am (duh) in favor of legalizing marijuana, for medical use or otherwise. So, given our government’s ridiculous stance on drugs, I’m not particularly surprised when I see our government attempt to maintain control over people who want to get high.

But, even given my personal interest in drug legalization, that’s not the interesting part of this story. What makes this case interesting to me is that it’s really a test of state’s rights; namely, the right of the state to make a law which goes against the laws of the nation. And what makes it even more interesting is that it’s the LEFTIST (together with extreme rightist) fascists on the Supreme Court that ruled in favor of the Federal government.
