Who is this Rose McGowan!
She tries to contribute something intellectual to the conversation. It’s a little hard to follow, but:
Rose McGowan: “I think the reason a big prejudge went on there and I am not saying I am not the only one because every school that I went to usually had, I mean, you could just take those guys and make them a cookie cutter down the line, and the girl version of them. I was usually persecuted by them, or my friends were at every single school I went to, and I went to a lot. And I think it was very easy to look at them and think, you know, rich White kid who looks like the kind of guy who used to put me in a headlock on the way to gym class and…I really actually hope you’re guilty because you kind of stand for all of them”
Joy: Who, who, who?
Elisabeth: You were of thinking that at the time?
Rose McGowan: “Those guys. I was assuming, and I think everybody else was and the reality is a lot of times people get popped like lets say you get popped for stealing …how many times have you stolen before? I’ve actually never stolen but let’s say a person gets caught for car theft...”
Elisabeth: “So you’re saying maybe not just maybe just not this time.”
Rose McGowan: “I’m saying maybe they didn’t rape this woman but I would say there is probably definitely been with them I would bet each and every one of them, please don’t sue me, possibly a long history of really inappropriate things.”
Joy: “You think so?”
Rose McGowan: “It’s a real frat mentality.”
Elisabeth: “This is the danger of being accused of something when you are innocent. Because now things like this will stick on them and these are boys who also did sacrifice themselves for their school and yes they had a moment where they had strippers in and is that the best thing that you can do morally? maybe not. But now being accused of this crime which they are innocent of is completely painting them with a brush which is so…its awful. For the rest of their lives they’re going to have to carry this burden.
Rose McGowan ought to be ashamed of herself.
Her running at the mouth puts the three words uttered by Don Imus to shame.
Some highlights of McGowan’s life:
Perhaps it was poor timing, but to have this woman guest host this particular week demonstrates poor taste. They should have held her accountable and challenged some of her statements, particularly in light of her own personal behavior.
She, like Joy, owes the Duke Lacrosse players an apology.
