Falsely Accuse People of Rape; Get Invited to State of the Union by Senator Kirsten Gillibrand

I haven't gone too in depth into all of the details of her case, but I've certainly picked up the key points. Using her as the face for rape survivors who don't find justice is really telling and disturbing. Even if her account was true. Even if they guy did turn their consensual sex into a violent anal rape.

And I say that because there's literally no evidence of the crime beyond her saying it happened, and there is plenty of evidence that she continued to be friendly with him after the fact. Using her as an example of a wronged victim is like saying this case should have ended in a conviction. Which is insane. Instead, she could be used as an example of how not to get justice for yourself as a rape victim. Don't wait months to report it. Don't continue to be best pals with the man who raped you. Get a rape kit. Preserve evidence. Tell the police immediately. That's how you ensure more rapists are brought to justice. What the advocates seem to want out of this case is the removal of due process and the inevitable prosecution of innocents.

An authoritarian blows through a red light. He runs somebody over. His passenger says, "Shit... I think you just killed somebody!"

Driver says, "Can you PROVE the light wasn't green?"

Isn't it innocent until proven guilty? Just like cosby? How can we say she's a false accuser without a trial?

Ok, I might get down voted for this, but I would really hope men realize that the next election's Democrat nominee is almost guaranteed to be a radical feminist. The party is falling apart at the seams and I'm personally deeply concerned about what will happen if an even more radical version of Obama gets put into office.

Birds of a feather, etc. Gillibrand is a misandrist monster.

We probably shouldn't use "falsely accuse" in this case. Just because he was not found "guilty" by either the college disciplinary panel or the law does not mean he did not commit sexual assault or rape.

What the story does highlight is the need for due process and to not demonize and declare guilty any person simply because there is an accusation.
