        @TheOnion Unfortunately horrifically true. The victim is far too often the victim a second time. Why so much goes unreported.

        @TheOnion And yet most rape cases are false.

        @CrazedJoker that's not even close to true. Some are, yes. But not most.

        @TheOnion So what are we saying? Because some women get threatening emails after rape accusations, no woman ever made up a rape story?

        @guitardaveg @TheOnion More so, that instantly assuming anyone makes them up is illogical because of all the negative consequences.

        @TheRarispy @TheOnion If anybody ever suggested that, they deserve all the opprobrium they get - I certainly did not.

        @guitardaveg @TheOnion What I was saying was that the point of the story isn't that nobody ever makes up a rape story.

        @guitardaveg @TheOnion It's that instantly assuming that they have without anything fueling that suspicion is really dumb.

        @TheRarispy @TheOnion I would say the point of the story is that it is illogical and therefore it's safe to assume it doesn't happen.
