"I stood there, wondering why the puck was getting bigger...

and then it hit me."


I know Duro's made his share of poo poo posts in hockey threads in the past but I appreciate his input from his perspective here and I don't get why his posts are getting attacked or even summarily dismissed, especially by a moderator.

I've been loathe to post any opinion on the entire Kane situation but I guess I will need to since I'm making a post now. I think the lawyers and the professional organizations involved have both handled things poorly recently, almost to the point of farce, and I feel bad for the victim in this case no matter what the truth of the incident ends up being, since her identity is apparently now out in the open in her home area or something. I'm also troubled and even somewhat frightened by posts like "there's a high degree of likelihood that Kane's guilty" and the general "guilty until proven innocent" vibe that's become prevalent in the court of public opinion before the case has even reached trial, although I understand the reasons for feeling that way, especially when it comes to rich white dudes who often weasel out of punishment for things they turn out to be guilty of.

Basically, my hope going forward is that the legal/professional people involved in this entire debacle get their poo poo together, conduct a proper trial, and that a correct verdict is reached, whatever that ends up being.
