Wait, didn't Shillary lie to the FBI?
I believe in something called reasonable doubt. So far Ford hasn't proved anything, let alone beyond a reaaonable doubt. Until then believe he is innocent.
Quantifying reasonable doubt in decades-old allegations of violent or sex-based crimes is tricky business. all the more, levied against a powerful, politically important man it's like a soccer game, Kavanaugh's team vs the accuser's except the accuser's team has been blindfolded and wear 75 lbs shackles on each ankle. And they don't have shoes. Calling it fair would be a laughable affront, if you're joking. Saying it with a straight face would almost be offensive . That a second alleged victim has come forward and still not put a dent in this man's credibility is a testament to the armor of being a well-connected white man in America, or any man if you're rich. We've seen poor men and men of color accused of non-violent victimless or low level crimes and the narrative isn't ever "Reasonable doubt" but "How fast can we get him booked and in a cell?" Fast isn't fast enough. They're on the express track to jail. We see "Man robbed bank" on the news and get a smug sense of satisfaction that he's in jail without knowing or caring if he actually committed the crime. Meanwhile rich guys do deplorable things, cheat investors, swindle people out of millions or hide money from the govt, or even sexual or violent crimes and they take the scenic route to maybe going to prison.
To be frank, it's not as if you have no vested interest in deflecting charges against Kavanaugh as he stands on your side of the political aisle so anyone could've predicted your tepid response, we're all guilty of bias you're not alone, some of us are just more honest about it than others which makes the texture of discussing such allegegations against a man of his stature pretty shallow, contrition is miles away.
Inarguable fact: In America, some people pay a high price for low crimes, others a low price for high crimes. For reference see the nearest jail.
