- reeder, on 02/15/2008, -6/+184That's like 3 rapes in 1: The rape itself, the company, and the judge. So much for justice.
Women need to stay away from Halliburton, and the state department for that matter. - rpi22, on 02/15/2008, -16/+151Halliburton can suck my dick! Oh wait, they already did?!
- stephenv, on 02/15/2008, -9/+127Tar and feather the bastards.
- minox, on 02/15/2008, -11/+112"Whatwhatwhat? Sexual assault is just something women have to put up with in today's workplace? What?"
I have no idea how the author came to this conclusion from the judge's statement that, "Sadly, sexual harassment, up to and including sexual assault, is a reality in today's workplace." The judge isn't endorsing the behavior, as this idiot author would have you believe, but lamenting it. - circle26, on 02/15/2008, -5/+91your tax dollars, hard at work. (no pun intended)
- paintpro, on 02/15/2008, -4/+79No words, just a feeling of nausea...
- Beveridge89, on 02/15/2008, -7/+80Well, the woman who was gang raped had her medical report conveniantly lost by KBR, and the judge doesn't even seem to be doubting the assault happened in the other case.
Regardless, these cases shouldn't be handled in arbitration, and the clause requiring them to be settled this way is denying proper justice. It's sickening. - ileftfark, on 02/15/2008, -5/+65What sucks is after the events take place, the women have to seek a counselor who has "THERAPIST" emblazoned on his door.
- otbeverly, on 02/15/2008, -3/+58Why can't these ***** up kids who like to go on shooting rampages pay a visit to a Halliburton office somewhere ... oh yeah, they moved their corportate offices to Dubai so they don't have to pay U.S. taxes.
- dcbebop, on 02/15/2008, -7/+59Can we please ***** leave there already?
- inactive, on 02/15/2008, -3/+45This is atrocious...
- TajesMahoney, on 02/15/2008, -1/+41is there really a more evil company? I know it's only a few men who committed the deed, but the coverup and following actions just horrifies me. I really hope these companies are rooted out of their holdings when a new administration takes hold
- Tenlow, on 02/15/2008, -1/+41Maybe they were crying rape because you know, they'd been ***** raped?
- vladkov, on 02/15/2008, -2/+41I hope you choke.
- neocognitism, on 02/15/2008, -4/+42Gosh, got any friends in KBR/Blackwater, do we, you traitor?
- mnemy, on 02/15/2008, -2/+39And this is why I told my ex (gf at the time) that joining the army's med school program was foolish. "I want to do my residency in 3rd world countries. It's perfectly safe, I will be working on american bases". Yeah. Real safe.
- Tarnum, on 02/15/2008, -1/+35You can suck Halalburton's dick! Oh wait, you already did, at the gas pump!
/sarc off - tonicboy, on 02/15/2008, -7/+40yes. yes, there is. there's medical evidence, and plenty of circumstantial evidence showing that KBR employees are a bunch of perverted bastards. but if you're expecting that KBR had videotapes of this ***** and will just hand it over, you're living in a fantasy world.
- radink360, on 02/15/2008, -1/+33This sucks. But it's virtually impossible to go up against a company with unlimited money and government backing.
- inactive, on 02/15/2008, -1/+31Yes, they did, but you didn't want them to.
- inactive, on 02/15/2008, -0/+29It should be clarified that the picture is actually the author of the article and not the victim.
I wish Halliburton is destroyed for this, but unfortunately it looks like they have already escaped justice. - RedSaber, on 02/15/2008, -2/+30If I were those women's husband, a few people at KBR would have disappeared suddenly for no reasons.
- ShArKSe7eN, on 02/15/2008, -3/+27This is so wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong...
Someone needs to throw those guys in jail with Bubba so they can feel what it's like to be taken advantage of & gang raped. - deviouskoopa, on 02/15/2008, -2/+23First a country and now this??
- greenm1981, on 02/15/2008, -2/+22If she went to a military contract physician, which she must have if she was in Iraq, then it is the company she works for that keeps the file, just the way the military is responsible for filing medical records for its sailors and soldiers. It's not like she went to Kaiser Permanente.
- standinero, on 02/15/2008, -2/+22WTF why the ***** is this still happening? these people are sick... This is ridiculous, doesn't these men have their own daughters, mothers, wtf... can't they relate, ***** sorry with the language.
- bsurette, on 02/15/2008, -1/+19Note to self: don't sign internal arbitration agreements.
- nikkesen, on 02/15/2008, -3/+21Digg it so that people are aware of the ***** that's happened. Even if women's lib has got us so much, we still have a long way to go.
- Vlux, on 02/15/2008, -1/+19Why isn't the government doing anything? Oh, that's right, it's been hijacked by a bunch of neocons to fulfill their agendas. Politicians are suppose to be the servants of the people, not the servant of large corporations. Don't brush it under the rug and do some justice for these women.
- greenm1981, on 02/15/2008, -0/+17Also to avoid any oversight whatsoever.
- codered1322, on 02/15/2008, -3/+20I can't decide which is worse, your comment or your name.
- akkibaba, on 02/15/2008, -3/+19The first comment was witty. Yours is full of fail
- SLSSNAKE, on 02/15/2008, -3/+19That's ***** up.
- steveboutin, on 02/15/2008, -0/+16it's great to hear such wonderful news about one of the handful of companies that RUNS THE WORLD.
- unicronband, on 02/15/2008, -6/+21Are you that hideous that no one will willingly have sex with you?
- pintomp3, on 02/15/2008, -4/+19aren't you the same one who keeps saying we should torture the prisoners in gitmo? how come you aren't up in arms about the fact that they haven't even had a trial, much less "Videotapes, audio tapes, photos, physical evidence"?
- Slick135, on 02/15/2008, -1/+16I hope Halliburton/KBR is crippled after the ass whooping they are going to receive.
- Devotia, on 02/15/2008, -2/+16Obvious troll was too obvious.
- feckineejit, on 02/15/2008, -3/+17they should put these perverted guys in prison where they will get the tender loving care they deserve, from a 400 pound guy named tiny.
- MikeWanDo, on 02/15/2008, -4/+17Yeah it's horrible that this happened but the article tries to spin this quote:
"Sadly," wrote Judge Miller, "sexual harassment, up to and including sexual assault, is a reality in today's workplace."
Into saying that the Judge thinks it's alright that there's sexual harassment/assault in the workplace. All the judge was saying is that there is sexual harassment/assault in the workplace. It's like saying there's murder in big cities. The judge isn't saying it's alright, he's just saying it's there. He even says that it's sad that it's there. I just don't think the court is really to blame here, at least not from the evidence presented in the article. - steveboutin, on 02/15/2008, -0/+13you're kidding right? they're not going to be punished for this - this is going under the rug like every other atrocity that these mega-conglomerates commit on a daily basis. in fact, a year from now the only people who'll even remember this is the women who had to go through it.
- mst3kcrow, on 02/15/2008, -0/+13Your ex gf is extremely naive.
- Nico_, on 02/15/2008, -0/+13The issue is not what the judge did or did not say.
- iucraigmc, on 02/15/2008, -0/+13Everyone, and I mean everyone needs to know about this kind of corruption. Those poor women.
- mnemy, on 02/15/2008, -0/+12And those responsible for brushing this incident aside need to be punished too.
- fokov, on 02/15/2008, -5/+17Where are all the war-mongers, pro-romanesc military, merc lovers now? What is their defense?
- VaporBro, on 02/15/2008, -2/+14So ***** evil...
- afromonster06, on 02/15/2008, -3/+15That's ***** disguisting.
- Xondar, on 02/16/2008, -0/+12What if he's a therapist and an analyst? Or a "analrapist" as they call it in the business.
