Mr Lasastryke 05/17/20 7:12:03 AM #419: | NFUN posted... Innocent until proven guilty is important for law, but somewhat irrelevant for the court of public option. If you are trying to decide how you feel for yourself, there are things you can and should consider that fall outside the purview of law. Without solid proof, a court of law is never going to find the defendant guilty, but you shouldn't treat a clearly baseless accusation the same as you would one that has a great deal of credibility just because they both got the same result in a trial well, in the reade case, i don't agree with inviso's "you HAVE to pick a side!" stance. there's so little to go off that i can't do much more than ask myself "how likely is it that biden sexually assaulted her?" i don't really feel comfortable making such harsh judgments about biden's character based on little more than my personal feelings. that's not to say that it's always impossible to pick a side if there's no trial. in the case of kavanaugh, the fact that he unleashed an avalanche of bullshit during the hearing did make me go "uh yeah, he's probably doing this for a reason." similarly, if biden starts acting hysterically, lying a lot and making a bunch of nonsensical statements regarding reade, i'll probably be inclined to believe reade. --- Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta ...
