    No, I'm telling you that evidence is required in order to convict people of crimes. If you destroy all of the evidence, you aren't going to get a conviction.....and you are essentially complicit with the attacker.

    Now that's not saying that they have to catch the attacker right away, it's just that the evidence has to be recorded officially in order to be able to use it in court if/when you find who did it.

    I know there's been a desire to assume guilt lately, but our friends on the left haven't killed off due process completely just yet.

    And that's the way it should be. You should have strong evidence if you are going to charge someone with a serious crime.

    Time for Harvey to dump all his money into Trump causes and angle for one of those pardons. If Harvey is smart he would promise Trump he would give the dirt on Hilary and Bill Clinton. Hell, he can just make it up, what does he have to lose.

    Too late for that. Weinstein is already a close associate of the Clintons and that whole cabal. If she had been elected President, he would very likely never faced any of these charges, as the whole #MeToo effort was initially just another coordinated effort to try to get President Trump. But instead it got a lot of other people, nearly all of who are Democrat supporting leftists.

    I do think it was catalyzed by Trump, the Access Hollywood tape, and his general sleaziness and misogyny. I don't think it was coordinated though, nor narrowly focused on Trump, nor (as I infer from you) inauthentic.

    You'd think we'd be crying, but somehow it's the Republicans who are upset.

    Why do you think it is acceptable to sexually assault women?

    Why is no one talking about Lost Boys? One of the best vampire movies from the 80s some don't even include it in their lists! I bet those that don't like the film are Republican supporting righties. Is it because the holy cross and holy water do damage to the skin? Though I do like Fright Night more where you have to have faith for the cross to actually work.
