The comment's are tearing the author a new one for being progressive. We should probably go in there and show him some support.

In 2010 they tried again with a modest provision granting anonymity only between arrest and charge but it was abandoned because of vigorous objection from feminists, who worry that women are less likely to accuse if the suspect is not named.

What. The. Fuck.

Who in their right mind would avoid reporting a crime due to the fact that the person accused wouldn't be named until charged? It'd be even better if they were anonymous until found guilty though.

Good article. There needs to be more like this out there.

Actually anonymity should not be granted to accused or accuser.

The comments are sickening but I guess thats expected since they are coming from people on a feminist website

I left this comment-

Finally, some common sense

As a victim of child sexual abuse, I have a personal interest in seeing that genuine victims get the justice they deserve. False Rape Accusations ruin lives, waste police resources, and make it more difficult for genuine victims to find justice. Feminists would have us believe that "no women lie about rape" or "false rape accusations are extremely rare" but this is just not so. The reality is, Radical Feminists have a long history of rationalizing false rape accusations as a means to get revenge against the "patriarchy." Feminists also push the notion that "if a woman says she was raped, she is to be believed no matter what." How many more cases like Duke Lacrosse, DSK, Kobe, Hofstra do we need to see before we are allowed to have a rational conversation about this? As indicated by most of the comments, certain people would rather continue to be vindictive and hysterical.

I'll just go ahead and say it: It would be surprising if it weren't written by a man.

They let him post that?

Well, I'm glad.

No issue sure be exempt from "innocent til proven guilty".
