[NBA] Kobe accuser wanting case dropped?


Recommended Posts

I never believed the accuser. Too many times in sports atheletes have been unjustly accused of rape. Often times the accuser merely is in it for the fame and the money. It may be my sinical side coming out but I just had a sneaking suspicion since the start of this trial that this woman was full of crap.

If she dropped it then there was no rape... you simply don't drop a case like this, no matter what, if it actually happened. I don't care if your sex life is revealed, you simply don't give up.

You said this. Then someone followed up with this:

Taking that into consideration you may not be so surprised to learn that many women just drop it due to how they will be perceived if they push it. It happens a lot more than you may think.

Personally, I hope the trial goes through...

I think Kobe Bryant deserves the attention... he cheated on his wife, possibly raped a woman, and is a role model for most young aspiring NBA stars. If nothing else, the trial may teach him some humility... Not to mention, everyone knows Kobe doesn't play fair or nice on the court... maybe a litte forceful humility will bring him back to earth... out of that cloud he's been living in.

Same goes for the woman... If she did lie about the rape, it'll teach her a lesson. Although I do agree that many women give-up because they are worried over the apperance, I also strongly agree that if a woman was raped, she should never give-up until she feels justified. Too often women give-up because they are pressured...

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
    • I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.
    • The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.
    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
