The Duke Rape Case

Okay, the bleeding hearts have convinced me. Whether or not the two accused young men are innocent or guilty is superfluous to the presumption that if they go free on the merits of the accusation, then countless other victims of similar crimes will be hesitant to report them.
If these men must sacrifice their freedom and lives, so be it. It is more important that feelings, self-esteem, and empowerment be revered above all else. Justice is an antiquated concept buried in the bowels of the "living" document we call the United States Constitution.
We must remember that the collective is far more important than the individual. Praise to those who rightly claim that people are too weak on their own to demand any God-given right. Power to the people!
Now I feel uncomfortable. Who can I sue?
