Girl, 15, raped at open-air party in park as teenagers celebrate end of GCSEs.

this is why you should wait until you're 18 to drink.

Age is but a number
I'm only 14 and I could easily control my drinking and what I do if I were to get drunk which is unlikely.

don't be silly, im assuming you've never drank when you've been under-age? not even a little? pft.
this is just an un-fortunate happening that will no doubt be blamed on "under-age" drinking.

i agree with you to some extent, i think be able to "control" your level of drunkness depends on how often you drink etc.
if you haven't drank before then obviously your going to be steaming drunk if you have say 8 cans, however this would be different if you drank more regularly.
i don't think age has anything to do with being able to control your level of drunkness.
also when your heavily intoxicated there's no denying you do stupid things which you would probably never do when you were sober, so controlling what you would usually do when sober becomes harder the more you drink.

Of course the rape is wrong and goodness knows why people didn't intervene but what's wrong with people drinking?

Where does it say she was raped infront of everyone? :S It says she was found, so I'm guessing she was dragged somewhere or was hanging around the heathland when it happened.

Ahh good point, it was the thread title which gave me the impression that she was.

Indeed, no Year 11s have finished their GCSEs yet really, but do you really expect anything other than sloppy reporting from the Daily Fail?

[GommeInc]

Everyone celebrates the end of lessons. They still have to suffer the exams My auntie had to say goodbye to her Year 11s on Friday, and now they start the gruelling task of doing their GCSEs

[Rapidshare]

They still have no right to rape her, if they think she's attractive or not. If he/her wanted to have sex with her then she has to feel the same way back.

Where does it say the rapers had the right? I didnt say anything about that, I just said it 'might' be someone who wanted to get 'laid' with her

Are you sure? Im surely not you cannot hold your drink

8 Cans? are we talking about cider here or what? I know for a fact that 8 cans for me is way enough, the only time I drank more than that was new years eve and I was sick too. Teenagers dont know when to stop drinking. FACT.

Sorry but in what way is that a fact? Some teenagers don't know when to stop drinking agreed, but exactly the same applies to adults. You can't just generalise like that and tbh some people just go out to get pissed which is different to not knowing when to stop.

As for the cans it doesn't really matter, cider is a similar alcohol percentage to beer (Slightly higher at times but pretty much the same).
