On the contrary. It's the "college rape crisis" that is all over the place. Varying fact situations and criminal and non-criminal behavior is lumped into one big shit storm to make the case that colleges are dark, dangerous places where 1 in 5 young women are raped and all men are considered rapists unless they can prove they got consent. If true, the sane response would be to reform the criminal justice system to lock up the rapists where they belong. There is broad consensus in our society that rapists deserve jail time.
And yet, that solution is vehemently rejected by those using the term "crisis" (activists, administrators, the media and the federal government). It's only then that they start talking about "murky gray areas and the complexities".
We are also told that a victim must always remain in control of the aftermath, in deciding how or if to seek justice. But also that college administrations and law enforcement are absolutely the only ones to be held accountable for letting all these rapists escape punishment.
It's incoherent.

You want to dismiss the existence of a "college rape crisis" but you are unwilling to believe these issues are learned prior to college.
The fact is these issues exist before and beyond college. The "college bubble" which places these issues in a small confined space is the only reason why a "societal rape crisis" and "world rape crisis" are called a "college rape crisis."

The focus is on colleges simply because it's the easiest target, not because there actually IS a rape crisis. It IS a bubble and that's where the activists have the power to jettison due process.
