The plethora of Roman Polanski threads over the years somehow made me believe RepublicanForge would be rushing to furiously and unambiguously condemn any old man that raped a minor decades ago...
One convicted in a court of law. Ran away to Europe to avoid prison time. One accused almost forty years later. No evidence. Just an accusation out of the blue. In the middle of a national hysteria of people accusing others of sexual harassment daily. A candidate hated not only by the Democrats but also the establishment Republicans. Just in time for an upcoming election. Gee I wonder if those are the same.........
I wrote a Star Trek fanfic once where T'Pol and Seven got addicted to mushroom and ended with all five crews kung fu fighting and that didn't stretch reality nearly as much as this post did.
It is Roy Moore. He hates gays, blacks, women, Hispanics, and thinks Jesus was a Caucasian man in Europe. He pulled out a gun and waved it around at one of his speeches. I am pretty sure this man will be the leader of the alt right when they realize Donnie little hands is using them. If this man wasn't grab in some pussy he wouldn't be their hero. He could fuck a duck on stage and they would say that the duck was asking for it and deserved it. Roy Moore might very well be the actual savior that corresponds to the right wing. Jesus was a bit of a hippie. Roy Moore probably does not need to walk on water because they already want to believe he does.
If I am going to believe the charges against Weinstein and Spacey without evidence, why wouldn't I believe the charges against Moore?
Because unlike many of your conservative counterparts, you actually don't sell out your morals when it's convenient to do so. I don't often agree with your definition of morality, but you live for doing the right thing and I respect that.
There’s evidence for Weinstein. Ambra Battilana Gutierrez wore a wire. Nonetheless, I agree with your meaning. It can be dangerous to believe allegations based on hearsay alone... until multiple, unrelated victims come forward and a pattern begins to emerge. This seems to be the situation with Roy Moore from what I can tell.
It's ok PedoZombie. If you rub your chin enough a zit might appear, which will make it that much easier to make 14 year olds think you're the same age and prey on them.
I just don't understand that story. Apparently he would encounter women throughout the course of the day and casually ask them to watch him beat off. Why would you want someone to see you diddling yourself? What's in it for either party? Wouldn't sex be preferable? If you just enjoy the power that comes from shaming women by coercing them to witness you perform a humiliating act, why not ask them to watch you take a shit?
...coerced humiliation It's the same deal with Harvey Whineswine asking A-listers to watch his fat-ass take a shower. I really want someone to deconstruct this fetish for me. I don't get it.
The thing is none of it really matters. Unless an incident is found to have occurred in 2010 or later and there is more evidence than "a minor said" then Roy Moore is never going to be brought to trial or convicted of any crime. I have little doubt he did what he is accused of. But he is still legally as innocent as Anna, ed629, shootER, Tuckerfan, myself or anyone else.
Plus, no self respecting Alabama Republican evangelical would ever vote for a Democrat over a pedophile anyway.
Not necessarily. Clayton Williams lost the Texas governors race in 1990 to Ann Richards mainly due to his snarky comments about rape and the revelations that he had used prostitutes several times years earlier. Williams had led in the governors race by as much as 20 points and led by 11 points in late August.
The thing is with all the sexual abuse allegations popping up against men in positions of influence or power reminds me a great deal of the allegations of child abuse at various day cares and preschools in the 1990s. It seemed everywhere you looked there was another "daycare abuse scandal". But it turned out many if not most of those allegations were false but still many peoples lives were ruined along the way.
While there is a danger of that happening, there is a difference in the cases which have come to light so far. We have independent corroboration of some of the events, confessions by some of the accused, and recordings of at least one of the people (Weinstein). The only one who looks like they might be peddling some false stories is Corey Feldman.
Infinitely, though there is some educational value - I doubt Louis sold it that way though. My first GF and I decided we should watch each other do it so we knew how to get each other going. I think her main shock was just how fast guys actually jerk it. She was worried about RSI. In retrospect, I probably should have been as well. My wrist sounds like the TARDIS materialising.
ahhhhh yes..... The old if you don't automatically believe it happened than you must be one yourself tactic. Stupid as always. Ron Moore has been running for this office for a while now. Right towards the end of it all of a sudden this pops up. Seems that it is becoming a favorite tactic of the left. Let the opposition get to a point where replacing the person running would almost certainly result in a loss and than bring up the allegations. I have no idea what Roy Moore did or did not do 40 years ago. I do know however that Roman Polanski was convicted of child rape in a court by a jury 40 years ago. There is a significant difference between the two cases.
Kind of like the last minute "revelation" by the Democrats in 2000 that George W. Bush had been arrested for drunk driving decades earlier. Many analysts believe that last minute stunt cost President Bush the popular vote in 2000.
The Comey letter was not last minute. The drunk driving arrest revelation about George W. Bush was only two days before the election. Not enough time even for a decent response by the Bush campaign.
I don’t get it either, though it would seem to be a conmon prediliction. James Toback and Brett Ratner have also been accused of such impertinent exhibitions.
14th Doc was actively defending a person found guilty in a court of law of statutory rape of a minor and ran from serving a prison sentence. No one is actively defending Roy Moore. You asked why no threads on Roy Moore and I told you why. There are significant differences between the two cases.
Fuck off, pedophile. You're as bad as all the Republican pedophiles trying to justify child molestation using the Bible.
