Cleveland, Texas Rape: Mujeres Unidas and Quanell X

For those following the details of the gang rape of the 11 year old girl in Cleveland TX, this video shows a group (Mujeres Unidas: Sisters United) finally speaking out in defense of the victim. Most reports* till now have shown that the locals are blaming the child for the rape, and accusing the mother of being absent.

This is sickening: This video ALSO shows some disturbing footage of the town meeting in which Quannell X, a local black rights activist, vehemently states, among other things, that because the girl did not report the rape she was therefore a willing participant in the gang rape. He states that “there is something wrong” with this investigation because all accused men are black (meanwhile, they are on video committing the rape). He asks “Where was her mother?” while the audience shouts “amen!” Are the eighteen men who raped this 11 year old girl the victims here? It’s appalling:

  3. One of our regular writers at “A Hollywood Republican,” an actress named Shannon Ivey has contributed an in depth analysis of this horrid and disgusting situation in Texas. If you want to read it, you can find it at: http://www.hollywoodrepublican.net/2011/03/the-rape-of-the-unnamed-girl-2/

  4. Thanks, Frank. Shannon’s article is great, very compassionate. On my facebook page I have been tracking abortion news and arguments, and in that mire you see a lot of “Christians” spew such hatred against women (I am Christian but do not condone that at all). Ivey is a wonderful example of Christian compassion and love.

    Thanks for sharing!
