You have my upvote. Reason& logic must prevail, and not some out of whack inflated victimhood narrative

If reason and logic prevailed Dalhousie would have turfed them the second this came to their attention.

Somehow this has been so badly twisted people are actually thinking the creators of those posts are the victims here.

Immediately eh? Before even confirming the facts?

They are not victims, I just don't think it's fair to ruin their lives for a stupid mistake. Everyone should learn from this, even if you think it's a "joke"; insinuating rape is not ok.

And by "ruin their lives" I mean releasing their names to the media. They should be sanctioned, but not directly publicly shamed.

What's worse? Rape or murder? Murder is insinuated in jokes and dramas and in music on a consistent basis. Things that are taboo are ripe for comedy and drama... your user name insinuates assault for god sake. (but I guess I don't understand the context of your username, right? You're probably a good guy, unlike those students which we understand the context and personalities involved fully, right?)

Agree.

"your user name insinuates assault for god sakes."

Exactly, so does that mean I'm going to actually punch you? no...

I'm confused what side you're on here. I feel somewhere down the middle, but you did say that insinuating rape is not ok... so is insinuating assault ok in your eyes?

[–]willpunchyou 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I guess I was trying to say that insinuating rape isn't ok {in the eyes of society}. I'm probably the most inappropriate person in terms of "jokes". But I can judge someone's sense of humour and decide if what I'm going to joke about is going to offend them. So when I say that insinuating rape isn't ok, you really have to judge who you are talking to.

I don't know if you're going to understand what I'm trying to say. I believe that you can joke about whatever with your close friends... But there is a very fine line there.

This is why I feel like this situation is getting so much attention for nothing. That group joked about rape and other such things, did that mean they were going to act on it? I don't think so and we don't know when they wrote such things. About my username: you're right, never really thought about the meaning of it. As everyone here, it's kind of hard to find a name that someone won't be able to find out who you really are. I was tired and frustrated the morning I came up with that name and I never thought I was going to actually do anything with this account. I was a lurker for a very long time and thought it would be nice to just upvote nice things. :)
