Remind me please of another country who celebrates their "freedom" with an organized rape? I'm sure they will be bringing those responsible to justice soon.

Yeah, because the hundreds of thousands who protested peacefully and non-violently for 18 days - including women and children in the square - don't represent the country, while the acts of a few do.

Yeah, that's never happened in the United States, women getting attacked and raped after football celebrations, during street parades/parties, etc.

Glad she'll be okay.

You repulse me.

Ditto. What about the soldiers and women who saved her - they get no credit for being "that country celebrating democracy"?

She was asking for it.

This happened Friday and went unreported for 5 days with live streaming video of Anderson Copper being shoved and giving back a bittch slap? Either CBS sux or something is up? Guess CBS and the rest of the media felt the protesters (Muslim Brotherhood) overturn of the government trumps a little old rape, heck even Obama praised them with no mention of this woman. At least her head is still on I guess. And Riot your excuse "Yeah, that's never happened in the United States, women getting attacked and raped after football celebrations, during street parades/parties, etc." is despicable.

BTW Glad your glad she’ll be OK. :zz:

WTF?????? I now believe you haven't a clue of what forcible rape is?

Glad she'll be OK? Yea wrap it up and get back in the game.

Supreme Allah says that b.itch had it comin' to her for being white.

if it were Al Qaeda instead of the Muslim Brotherhood it would have been her head instead of 'Glad she'll be OK'. So there is a bright side. ;)

I don't recall ever hearing of a situation where a reporter was raped covering an event regardless of how out of control the crowd became.

I don't think this says anything about Egyptians as a whole but it does give insight into the chaotic and savage behavior of some of the rioters.

You're an idiot, Dell. I'm glad she wasn't killed. She's alive, and lucky to be so, and lucky to get out of the hospital. I wasn't making light of her attack.

There were other reporters there, who were taken by the police, held and beaten.

You think all those protesters were Muslim Brotherhood? If so, you're clueless.

You guys who want to slam all Egyptians because of what happened to that poor reporter, but fail to acknowledge violent people can be everywhere - that's what's despicable. That was no "excuse", Dell, it's true. But let's not let that get in the way of hating Muslims. Even the ones that saved her from her attackers.

i don't either. another shock is finding that many countries still don't consider that a crime. how awful for her; altho she is lucky not to have been killed, that attack will haunt her forever.

I can't help but think what hell there would be to pay if a Muslim woman was raped by a few thugs hanging out in a peaceful tea party gathering.

if it were here, it would be prosecuted as it should be. in some places, she'd be on trial, which is a damnable shame.



unless it was ben roethlisberger..than there wouldn't be enough dna, and the tape would mysteriously be erased!!

Seriously, Doreen? You really think these two situations are remotely similar?

The guys at the Rand Paul rally who threw that small woman to the ground and stomped on her are doing just fine, aren't they? In fact, the guy who did the head stomping publicly demanded an apology from his victim. Do those losers represent all Rand Paul supporters? Libertarians? Tea Party supporters?

And just think... its not in Egypt (yet.. and hopefully will not get to that point) but with Sharia law, the victim of the rape gets in trouble!

^ in the last one a young girl was ganged raped and then stoned to death for "fornication"

this has to be one of the worst reponses I've ever seen on a message board.

No - not remotely similar. I was talking about a Muslim woman being raped. But, now that you mention it, it's an instance like what happened at the Rand Paul rally that gets all non-Democrats labeled as rabble rousers and **** disturbers with Nancy Lugosi leading the chant.
