At the very least, even if he does get out, he’ll be too old and frail to harm anyone else.

She denied that tabloid reports of the attack were true in a Rolling Stone interview. However when she was asked whether she’d filed a police report relating to the attack, she became evasive and refused to answer. So it’s still reasonable for someone to believe the attack happened since she didn’t deny filing a…

Even if a woman is elected president Congress will still be mostly male. Political and economic power will still be held mainly by men. But like I said this doesn’t even fully apply to women. Even the men who fight wars have little say over whether wars should or shouldn’t happen. The people who profit from wars never…

It’s your missing the point that’s silly and childish. Think about it for a while and maybe you’ll get it. Think of the history of meddling in the Middle East that’s led to our most recent wars. Now think about the fact that that was done to make a select few even wealthier. Now think about who fights those wars to…

Why should women fight wars that men start? Having said that, why should anyone who isn’t a rich and powerful man fight wars that rich, powerful men start? Let the people who want to start wars fight them.

I remember reading about a study of college rapists and they had an average of 6 victims each. Even if victims don’t go to the police, they can still warn other women they know. It will be harder for predators to operate when they develop a bad reputation.

He practically admitted he’s guilty. Accept it and move on with your life.

It appears it’s Sony Music that’s suing her and Roc has apparently agreed to let her go. This is the same Sony Music that’s giving Kesha the choice of working with a man she’s accusing of rape or not work at all. I dislike Rita but I want her to beat these Sony a$$holes in court.

I think it’s the number of streams that are equivalent to one album sale.

She’s suing them for not releasing her music, so they countersue her for not fulfilling her contract, which they aren’t allowing her to do? Wouldn’t it be so much easier and cheaper to just to drop her from the label?

I’ve only ever liked two of her songs but I think i’ll check this out. She was always a puppet but since she finished her previous contract she’s taken creative control of her career and seems to have drastically changed direction.

Its a big change from the days when a large percentage of songs fell into the not at all PC categories of race music or hillbilly music, the precursors to rock.

I get a lot of indie rock and indie electronic stuff so I’m happy with my weekly recommendations as well. But rather than my taste being too narrow its probably way too broad to get a completely accurate list of what i want to hear. I listen to country music but Spotify almost never recommends anything despite my…

Jay told so many conflicting stories I don’t think he was involved at all. Plus his timeline radically changed after the cell phone tower information became available. It seems to me he got his information from the detectives. Keep in mind that Jay had hours of non recorded conversations with the detectives. Keep in…

If the police were feeding information to Jay they could easily have fed him the location of the car. It was parked on a residential street. Its not like it would have been that hard for the police to find it.

I agree Don’t had absolutely no alibi and the police should have checked on him more. The problem is they zeroed in on Adnan almost from the beginning and didn’t seem to seriously consider other possibilities.

Wasn’t there a serial killer operating in the area at the time. If I remember correctly another Asian girl was murdered around the same time. I question if Jay was involved in this murder in any way because his stories vary so much. He sounds like someone who’s having trouble keeping his lies straight. It sounded at…

Avery had a violent history long before his initial conviction. He was facing prison for pulling a gun on a woman and trying to force her into his car before he was arrested for the rape. Syed didn’t have any troubled history and I’m not aware of him causing any trouble in jail. While I found Syed unlikeable during…

To be fair, everyone has the right to a defense even someone as awful as Peterson. So I have no problem with a lawyer who would defend someone like that. That’s how the system works and we shouldn’t attack defense lawyers when they’re an important part of our criminal justice system. This case is a choice for the…

I think white privilege is a very dangerous term to throw around and it makes racial problems worse. There are millions of under-privileged white people in America who are being told they have it good simply because of their skin color. It makes them feel like no one cares about their struggles or that no one is…
