Teach your kids to speak up when they are the target of assault, or witnesses anything that's not right.

Are you people doing this?

Guess what is the BEST way to teach them?

Believe victims who come forward. If we changed our reactions to victims coming forward it would DRAMATICALLY change the reporting stats.

Well said.

And once more for the people in the back.

How are we supposed to believe the victims when women clearly lie just as often as men? Did you not see the Brian Banks case that was just resolved? He served 6 years in jail for a rape he didn’t commit and had his whole life ruined. That is a good reason to take a step back in these situations I’d say

Did you miss the statistics where less than 3% of rape victims lie? Did you get that? Do I need to repeat it? Do you understand that means, 97% of the time, they tell the truth?

No it doesn't. She's a psychologist and a scientist describing how memories are encoded.

Love the part where the epinephrine (?) in her brain helps her remember..........

Epinephrine is adrenaline. I had no idea it had anything to do with forming memories.

"Extensive evidence indicates that stress hormones released from the adrenal glands are critically involved in memory consolidation of emotionally arousing experiences. Epinephrine, glucocorticoids, and specific agonists for their receptors administered after exposure to emotionally arousing experiences enhance the consolidation of long-term memories of these experiences."

She said hello to her attacker? Not "Mom, that boy sexually assaulted me"?

+1 It's Recovered Memory, which research indicates is not always accurate.

It’s not recovered memory. It’s her memory, that she discussed over years.

Grassley is crotchety.

She is a research psychologist who has likely had training in neuroanatomy, memory, emotion, etc. She said that the memory of their laughter was "indelible in the hippocampus." Sorry that you didn't quite understand that.

And how else should she respond to a question along the lines of, “how do you know that you accurately remember this?” She knows why she remembers it, and she gave an educated, appropriate response.

As the climate debate has shown, science is an elitist socialist conspiracy.

No, she's not

+1 Mitchell is doing a good job of trying to establish the facts of the story, and to get clarification and more detail on key elements. Those are not holes, no matter how much you want them to be.

Ford just admitted to not hearing conversation, yet claimed the people downstairs were talking in her letter and testimony.
May seem small.... but details like this are important since she lacks so many other details.

Actually no, because the conversation downstairs has nothing to do with the crime. She didn't say "I heard them saying XYZ" and then change the story. She made a very natural, understandable assumption that people at the party were not sitting in silence. This is how human beings talk and tell stories.

Is that tall, burley dude escorting her out a bodyguard? He wasn’t wearing a court security badge.

Uh oh, Grassley sounds like he's having a meltdown, old geezer.
