It's not shocking that Carlson publicly endorsed rape when others quietly endorse it by beating around the bush. Another favorite weapon of theirs is to misrepresent the issue. O'Reilly is also famous for this (e.g. 'If women are allowed to press charges if she wants to stop having sex and her partner doesn't stop, then women have the power to press charges at any time for no reason during sex with a man!&quot . I'm not kidding - he really had a segment on this.
