Chuck Schumer on Judge Kavanaugh: “There is no presumption of innocence.”

FYI, they used to burn and torture people before "presumption of innocence".

I hope those temp officers were at least punished in some way, even if there were no criminal charges. From what I saw, it looked like there was wrong-doing on both sides. She was being a little snot, but punching her was totally uncalled for.

They weren't. And one of the big problems I see with Americans these days is to excuse police thuggery by saying the victim should have been "more compliant."

In this case, they were not both wrong. She had no obligation to be sweet and obedient to two goons who started harassing her while she was laying peacefully on a beach with her daughter. She is a citizen, and the goons are paid professionals, paid by the taxes of the citizens they are supposed to serve (not harass).

Yet, Americans have flipped this on its head, and now the police, the paid civil servants, are the masters we must obey. This is perverse, and one reason the country is becoming a police state. Professionals who are paid to keep the peace should be able to do just that - keep the peace. Instead, they get rattled by a woman who doesn't bow down and follow their every command, end up manhandling her, arresting her, traumatizing her daughter, and now charging her with an imprisonable offense that may cause her daughter to lose her mother. All over sitting near an unopened can of beer.

And Americans really think they are free?

A bipartisan group of House lawmakers, all from the freshman class, have released a plan to impose term limits on members of Congress.

12 year limit, would require an amendment to the constitution. Proposal was introduced by Ko Kahana a freshmen represenative from California.

the country is becoming a police state.

You're doing a "GILSAN" - taking one incident that represents 0.01% of what happens every day and interpreting it to assume that it represents 99.99% of the way things are.
Those guys weren't even regular officers. MOST officers in MOST precincts do their jobs properly. I know a few (retired and active). There are bad cops, there are bad precincts, but you can't paint everyone with the same brush.
Percentage of abuse of power is probably higher against POC in some areas however. Been that way for decades unfortunately.
Failure to comply with a police officer is a misdemeanor in most places. I have better things to do than re-read and look at the exact complaints they filed against her though.
ICE is looking like more and more like "police state" group though, and that's concerning.

CB Ford has three gossip buddies and her husband to corroborate her story. That's not corroboration, it's just people repeating what you said.

I wonder why Ford's family hasn't supported her claims.

Accuser #3 has a face and a name. And a sworn affidavit as both a witness and a victim.

4chan is the king of fake news. Anyone who believes that (or Breitbart, or Drudge or ...), or photoshopped fake tweets by Bill Mitchell is a fool.

Kavanaugh's attorney: CB Ford, still hasn't turned over therapist notes or results of lie detector test to the Senate JC.

I read her full statement.

What kind of women watches multiple friends be gang-raped, witness the same perp's spiking "the punch bowl" but doesn't call the police or at least tell their parents about one of those rapes / crimes ?

No.. of course the normal reaction is to keep partying / socializing with the rape gang.

Talk about fools.

** Prediction, the witnesses aren't really witnesses. The corroboration is second hand gossip.

I'll be disappointed if Brett Kavanaugh doesn't sue Ford and the latest accuser for slander.

Perjuring oneself on a sworn affadavit carries criminal penalties. As a goverment security clearance holder, perjuring herself would end her career. She's the real deal.

But I see some here are already starting to trash and slut shame her ...as expected.

If he gets voted onto SCOTUS, it will be proof of just how corrupt and rotten to the core the GOP has become. Kavanaugh is going down - if not now, in the future when he's impeached..

But keep on swimming down de-nial.

PS - doesn't dailywire have some "ripped abs" or "toned legs" to talk about? Celebrity. Gossip. Rag.

I didn't slut shame anyone. I just asked the question, what kind of person watches her friends get drugged and gang raped, then keeps socializing with the rapist? Doesen't tell anyone?

He may not be confirmed. You should hope he is, otherwise this type of character assassination could become the norm for democrats too.

But keep on swimming down de-nial.

Irony.

Another rational argument.


Yeah, we'll see how this plays out over the weekend. You can scream and shake your fist, facts don't care.
