are you black? i am, and not offended in the slightest. i dont really think it’s funny, but i’m hardly clutching my pearls.
it is often a “he said she said” issue regardless of what the person was wearing and whether the rapist was an acquaintance. it is a legal reality
i understand your frustration but i think the judge was talking about the legal standard for hate crimes, not the moral/ethical reality
i have the opposite experience. and i have a large group of female friends. i suppose it’s possible that theyre not telling or that ive never directly asked. i suppose i should very thankful
hmm. i too am a defense attorney and i have the complete opposite experience. ive seen a lot of rape charges brought and then suddenly dismissed months later because the prosecution doesnt feel they have enough evidence to go forward. ive heard from several prosecutors that they didnt believe the victim. sometimes,…

i cant bring myself to watch the video. but the transcript doesnt sound so bad to me. if what he’s saying is true, it seems like that bill was a political compromise, which is basically redundant because to get shit done in DC you have to be able to do that. i love bernie’s principles (except for his gun issues) but…

isn’t it possible that he did ride the subway recently, but he just doesnt remember how to pay? im HRC all day and all night but i think calling him out of touch because of that one comment is a bit ridiculous. im not sure any candidates on either side would know how. your point is taken though of not fronting but i…
how do you suppose someone finds a solution without working with people who helped create it? do you think he can unilaterally pass legislation?

ok, i missed the immediately part. i just wanted to share to help you out. fever spikes in children may be more common than in adults but 104 is not to be played with, that’s all im saying. glad your kid got better though, that’s what’s most important
105 degree fever is close to being able to kill you. i am not a doctor, but i had a 105 degree fever and the ER told me it was smart that i came in. if it gets much higher it can cause brain damage or death.
