How the fuck is there a statute of limitations for rape in New York?

[LadyForCamus]

Um...wow.  There are many...MANY reasons women don't report assaults.  Shame.  Embarrassment.   Fear of not being believed.  Fear of being BLAMED.  Fear of the rape exam, which is just as painful and degrading as the assault its self.  Fear of their attackers.  Fear for their LIVES if their attacker has threatened them not to tell, or threatened their families.  Fear that they will subject themselves to a lengthy, mortifying trial only to have their attacker get a slap on the wrist.  Fear of bullying/ridicule/scorn by the community, especially if the accused is well liked/well known.  The sick feeling of having to verbalize what was done to you over and over, which amounts to being violated all over again. And of course, all these reasons are magnified when the victim is a very young person.  The fact that you would even suggest such nonsense demonstrates that you either don't fully understand the nature of the crime of rape, or you don't take it seriously.


Do you think all 50 something of Bill Cosby's accusers are lying?  You are disgusting dude, Drippy.  But at least your consistently disgusting on all matters regarding empathy and the human condition.  Why did you have to shit all over this thread with your nastiness?  Go back into your hole, will ya?

Do you think all 50 are telling the truth?

Do you think no one in that group was trading sex for an opportunity at stardom? Do you think no one in that group were trying to use their looks and sex to create a career for themselves, and got nothing but a story in return?

I am sure cosby crossed the line somewhere, not the point. The point is the reason for the statue of limitation is found with cosby's case. The reason being you can not prove intent on either party's side.

Time is the ONLY, not the best, but only measure of intent.

Yes people like nymphoria and K1 will fall through the cracks, but again in the vast majority of cases time will flush out the truth behind a person's intent.

Of course I don't know for sure that all 50 were telling the truth. Of COURSE some women lie about being assaulted. For lots of reasons, including the ones you just mentioned. And it's despicable. But I was never talking about SOL's. What I have been objecting to this whole time is your insane allegation that every single woman who does not report her assault is a liar, and wasn't assaulted, lol.
