You guys aren't even hiding it anymore.
Well, as I said, unfettered sex is nice. But I'm not about to worship it or anything.
I guess you feel differently.

So let's say someone goes to the FBI to report a bank robbery.

The FBI asks, which bank - where is it? The accuser says I do not remember.

The FBI asks, when did this happen - what day and month? The accuser says I do not remember.

What is the appropriate response of the FBI in this case?

(This is the same situation the FBI is going to have with these allegations against Kavanaugh)

.





but the burden of proof is on the accuser.....she didn't even provide 1 evidence or witness that puts Kavanaugh and her in the same party let alone about the other stuff.





what is the FBI is going to do? take their statements again and find a unknown witness under a rock to find if they saw something in a party in 1982.


the alleged crime took a few minutes, she said 2 people in the room, both have denied it......so what is the FBI going to do? get CSI on the case?

There are limitations. There are no limitations on rape, which this was not, and no limitations on various degrees of sexual assault but however, there is an age of 18 or over for it to apply.

Furthermore i suggest you spend some time researching , liberals are NOT more likely to have abortions, CONSERVATIVES have more abortions than liberals....

(did you really not know that)

Why?

Well conservatives are less likely to use/ have access to/ educated about.. effective birth control and thus find themselves in a predicament more often..



sorry to burst your bubble, if you doubt me research it fully.
Abortion is ALL about being able to have unfettered sex. Don't be silly.
But then, you probably already know that and just won't admit it. I find that very common.

It's not just Democrats. It's all normal thinking, rational, educated adults.
No, it's people who have zero backbone. Who wants to bet that at the end of the week long investigation another salacious unprovable accusation will be leaked that must extend the investigation in perpetuity? This is a stalling tactic, and they shouldn't be allowed to get away with it.

The Jesuit priest organization also called for an investigation and they already endorsed him.

I also wish Ford supporters would comment on the very real possibility that Ford (and DiFi) allowed other women to be placed at risk by not coming forward sooner - IF Kavanaugh is guilty of these accusations. If they REALLY cared about the safety of women, they would have "exposed" Kav sooner. The fact that they did not......100% politically motivated and ZERO % wanting actual justice.

Ford is the left's political puppet, she's clearly been traumatized by events in her youth and I would bet this incident was not the only time. I don't think Kavanaugh is the one who did this to her, but DiFi ran with it & has left Ford even more traumatized. DiFi should be charged with pyschological abuse of someone not wholly in control of her faculties.
You say you don't believe her yet wish she had come forward sooner to "protect other women." Which is it then?

I don't know if she took anything or not but the good Judge should have taken a Xanax or 3. He might have come across like someone that wants to be on the Supreme Court for a lifetime.
