Three other women back up her story. There will be more I’m sure. Why bring it up now you ask? Because thanks to other woman and men coming forth lately with stories of rape and harassment, these women are more likely to be believed. And because the stakes are very high.He may be a US senator.
Maybe I'm older than you, but back in the 70s and 80s even if you reported it, you were often disregarded. No one wanted to hear about it or take it seriously. People are finally speaking out because people actually listen more now. It seems like a lot now because it's a snowball effect... no one wants to speak out and stand alone. But when one person starts talking about it, others follow suit. It's hard to hold it all in for years, so even if the statute of limitation has long passed, it might help her just to speak about what happened.
Nope, heck I was married to my first wife and in the service in the 70's. I do not disagree on how people were treated, and can see someone saying something years later, but I have noticed with these sorts of me to issues there are always those that jump on the bandwagon to be part of the crowd. My issue is that these days it seems that anyone can make about any claim and if it is the issue of the day they are automatically believed and the person is crucified in the media even if there is not a shred of evidence to support the claim. So as I said I take all these claims with a big helping of salt unless there is ample verifiable evidence to prove their claim, that is the cost of waiting decades to make ones claim, simple as that.

Perhaps she doesn't feel so alone and isolated since so many are coming out now. I'm happy to see that this issue is coming to the forefront. It's time this kind of thing is dealt with. It won't ever stop, but perhaps all the publicity can help prevent even more of it happening.
You meant to write "Donald Trump is a rapist". He has admitted being a serial sexual predator.
Clinton was President 30 years ago and irrelevant. And there was never any allegation of rape.
Bill Clinton VIOLENTLY RAPED Juanita Broderick in a hotel room.
Bill Clinton lost his Rhodes scholarship and was booted from Oxford for RAPING another student in England.

Oh really? I suggest you talk with Juanita Broaddrick.
Glad to see that scumbags on both sides of the aisle as well as in Hollywood are FINALLY being called out. Hopefully there will be some justice for their victims and the criminals will go to prison.
Moore is also using Breitbart to try and get ahead of the allegations. Sounds true, and pretty par for the course for religious extremists like him. They're always hypocrites.
Better step out of that glass house before you throw that stone.
