Oh, I see what you mean. It is the GIRLS fault for having the audacity to go to a party where boys did illegal things so she is really to be blamed. Right?

Not the boys who did the illegal things, but rather the girls who were around when teh illegal things happened. Yeah, let's blame them for even being there.

Jesus.

Should i never take the subway because muggings happen there? IF i get mugged is that MY fault for being the women who dared to take public transportation knowing i could get mugged? The mugger? Nope, not his fault at all. How dare I carry a purse and flaunt that to him.

On Twitter, some are saying that if she saw or knew or about these gang rapes or trains or lineups and didn't call the police, then she is an accomplice. An accomplice to the rape of the other girls.

Lol, really moving the goal posts aren’t we? Do you know how to argue? Do you understand logic? They released an unprecedented amount of documents. Kavanaugh has a long record so, yes, a lot of the documents were reasonably subject to the objection that they were protected by executive privilege. Once again, I’m a lawyer. The GOP objection was reasonable.

OMG! How many times are you going to tell us you are a lawyer. NO ONE CARES. Half the people on dcum are lawyers. It's a damn job, not a super power.

During the years 1981-82, I became aware of efforts by Mark Judge, Brett Kavanaugh and others to "spike" the "punch" at house parties I attended with drugs and/or grain alcohol so as to cause girls to lose their inhibitions and their ability to say "No." "

???
I realize she goes on to make stronger allegations. But, I want to hear what the corroboration is, and who it is. Not just people she told. Other witnesses. Are there some?

No girl should EVER walk into a house where she knows drinking alcohol might be going on.

Teach your kids some common sense, people.

I am and a woman and a Democrat who voted for Hillary. Also a lawyer. This campaign is transparently political and the allegations are drafted to be vague guilt-by-association nonsense with timing that is ridiculously and transparently politically-motivated. It’s a campaign to discredit him based on him being at parties where bad things may have happened. You are a sheep and a part of the brainless mob for believing this stuff.

Thank you. It is ludicrous.
So, what is her evidence? Dates? Witnesses? Proof?

It hasn't even hit the major news sites yet and you're discounting it because additional information hasn't been presented? I think it's pretty clear that you've already decided what you will and will not believe regardless of what is said.

The affidavit is online. What should I be waiting for? You don’t think waiting for literally the day before he testifies shows how politically motivated this campaign is? Sorry, the man was nominated long ago and has been sitting on the bench of an important court for years. This is total bullshit.

Where you just as upset about the GOP withholding 90% of his written documents? Or that they released 56,000 pages one day before the senate judiciary hearings?

Lol, really moving the goal posts aren’t we? Do you know how to argue? Do you understand logic? They released an unprecedented amount of documents. Kavanaugh has a long record so, yes, a lot of the documents were reasonably subject to the objection that they were protected by executive privilege. Once again, I’m a lawyer. The GOP objection was reasonable.

Sure, they released an unprecedented amount of documemts. But they also withheld an unprecedented amount of documents. And you may think it's reasonable, but the members on the SJC, who were also lawyers, do not.

And the one moving the goalposts is you.

Your logic:

Avenatti and Dr. Ford coming forward at the last minute?

Bullshit.
GOP releasing 56,000 pages at the last minute? T

Totally reasonable!

I said the withholding was reasonable, not the timing. In any event, docs were released over time and the fact that a portion came out the day before is not remarkable in the context of congressional hearings that you probably have zero experience (though I do). There’s been plenty of time that’s passed and I haven’t heard about anything earth shattering in those docs. You’re probably one of the idiots who was whipped into a frenzy over Hillary’s dumb emails, too. OMG they’re on Huma’s computer! Stop the presses.

sorry, don't believe you

LMAO. Go ask Jeff to check my IP. I posted tons in favor of Hillary. Is it really so unbelievable that I can think for my damn self and see that this campaign is vague and baseless. I’m a woman who can think for herself, thank you very much. I read and think critically and can see this latest #metoo campaign for what it is.

This poster asked other posters to ask me to check the poster's IP address. Two posters asked. So I checked and this poster has claimed to be a Hillary supporter in the past. However, the poster also claims to have been impressed by the Jordan Peterson videos and to have "seen the light" as a result. The poster also support the "Walk Away" movement which doesn't really exist.

Are you sure walk away doesn’t exist? I heard the guy who started it on a podcast the other day

Yes, it is completely astroturfed. The original tweets were largely faked and used stock photography.

"Illegal things?" She is saying that she saw these guys drug and GANG RAPE girls multiple times! Gang rape isn't a simple "illegal thing".

Everyone gets death threats on the Internet now!!!! A death threat isn’t what it used to be, my friend! Kavanaugh and his family are getting death threats, too. I’m over here laughing that you refer to him as a “suspected gang rapist.” I am seriously appalled by your ability to be whipped into a frenzy by the media and some idiot legalese from a political hack lawyer.

Mark Judge's ex gf also talked about train/gang rape before this came out. A pattern is forming here...

I am not ready to send him to jail, but I can put two and two together and say that being seen giving women alcohol without their consent and lining up outside of a bedroom where a gang rape may be taking place is not a good luck for a supreme court nominee

Um what, how do you force feed women alcohol?!?!

They spiked the punch. It is very clearly stated. I for one support an investigation and would look at the results objectively. But this and everything else we have learned from BK’s high school yearbook and public statements about heavy drinking are enough to warrant an investigation if he wants to join the SCOTUS.

Nope. That’s not how it works.

Because she was a teenager? Were you ever a teenager?

In answer to your question, no, the affidavit doesn't address that question.

Yes, I was a teenager and if I saw guys gang raping a girl there's no way in hell I would choose to go to parties with them.

There you go. You would make different choices than she did. Does that make her a liar, or an idiot, or just a different person than you?

Oh come on, your assertion is insane. No woman in her right mind would continue to hang out and go to parties with guys whom she believed participated in gang rape.

They would if they thought it was the victim's fault for making poor choices and that it wouldn't happen to them because they would make better choices (e.g. avoid the punch).

Go back to page 119 of this thread, where victim blaming instantly began.

What's wrong with you. Lets us go with your argument. Based on statements by multiple people Kavanaugh there are possibility that

1. Kavanaugh is totally innocent
2. Kavanaugh is complicit to gang-rape, sexual assault and attempted rape, if not rapist worse.

There is no harm in denying the SCJ position to Kavanaugh, even if 1 is true, because as a country we have denied many eminent judges the same position for various reasons. The country does not owe him/Trump/GOP a SC position.

However, if there is any truth to 2, it would do enormous damage to the SC, along with enromous damage every girl (and boy) who might be feeling scared to report horrible incidences against powerful people.

There is a middle ground too, if the party in power is willing. If they want to they can open a FBI investigation to get to the borrom of these allegations by forcing everyone named in news report, testimony and statements to provide interview under oath. That way we do not sit a very tainted person on SC and yet do not refuse him a SC seat based on "mere" allegations.

This is a frightening thought - that there is “no harm” in denying this person a SCOTUS seat if he is innocent.
So, we are OK with any accusation - with no real evidence - to cause any person to lose an opportunity to which that person is eminently qualified?
You are ok with mere accusations to ruin a person’s life? Because, that is exactly what is happening here.

The truth is.... if these people were REALLY interested in FBI investigations, they could have gone about doing so in the proper way. They could have brought their claims forward, when this nominee was announced, presented their claims to the committee and had the FBI investigate as part of their background investigation. But, that was not the goal here. The goal was to present allegations, after the hearings were done, to delay and attempt to derail this process.
I can predict what would happen with an FBI investigation - they would find no evidence to support or deny the claims made. Because there is none. They would collect statements, present them to the committee, and we would be exactly where we are now. Except months down the road because the DEMOCRATS have chosen to play games and not follow regular procedure.

Was it frightening to you too that merruick Garland was denied a Supreme Court seat?

This post makes me sad. Even more sad than the rest of it.

I cannot imagine Collins and Murkowski voting yes at this point.

There is just too much baggage here on this nominee.
