So, you're going to go with: only the text of the review matters?

They do corroborate part of the statements from the eyewitness and don't contradict the rest of the statements, though.

LOL... no.

Publishers and authors didn't seize on it, it's a social media platform with the purpose of providing reviews and recommendations baked in. That's the core concept. It relies on credibility of user reviews ... even if you insist that it's just social media platform, it still requires levels of trust between users, in…

And that, sir, is where the dumbness comes in. Hale is a psycho, plain and simple. That doesn't change the theoretical concept that people who create false personas and portray themselves as credible in their reviews are jerks. Which is the only thing I've been arguing.

This comment doesn't make sense.

No, it's not funny how the photos dont' show the semi nudity the witnesses claim. At all. Because nobody said that these handful of photos show the entire encounter. So, you know, use common sense and remember you're not a lawyer and have no idea what you're talking about it.

No, not at all. They don't corroborate EVERYTHING the witnesses say, but they certainly don't conflict with anything.

There's more than enough for an indictment — based on pics and eyewitness statements, there is certainly enough evidence to raise the question in court. Is there enough to convict? Well, we don't know anything about the eyewitnesses, but there are multiple witnesses and what they say is certainly not contradicted by…

Accompanied by multiple eyewitnesses who said that she was grinding semi-clothed on him and that the couple was approached and asked to stop fucking and they didn't.

Uh, zero evidence? http://www.tmz.com/2014/09/17/dja…

Witnesses (plural). Pictures. http://www.tmz.com/2014/09/17/dja…

Can dudes jerk off in their cars too? Cos there are a couple guys waiting for your go-ahead over at the elementary school right now.

Yeah, like I said... you seem dumb. Good luck!

If it wasn't on GoodReads it's even worse - an entire blog revolving around a fake persona can't be tossed off as "just an anoymous review" — it's fucking weird. Why would you defend that?

LOL... Totally the exception. I may be kind of a jerk, but I'm right.

You do realize that Goodreads is not a "personal reading diary"? Right.

You seem... dumb.

Right, you'll do fine.

And I'm going to let you deal with the emotional fallout of knowing that you're the exception when it comes to preferring to read customer reviews from fictional people.
