#metoo doesn't mean guilt by accusation!!! #NoFranken2.0 !!! Give Fairfax a fair investigation

[uponit7771]

INVESTIGATE !!!

Lt Gov is calling for an investigation and give them one.


No More Al Franken's


PERIOD

[Eliot Rosewater]

1. Absolutely

If he was a con, they wouldnt even bother with an investigation, they have no problem with the behavour alleged

A L L E G E D

[uponit7771]

6. +1, That's the MSM ... Fuck Rod just mentioned BK as if he doesn't remember BK avoided an

... investigation were as Fairfax is calling for one.

[PatSeg]

2. I agree

I'm not going to pass judgment on Fairfax or the two women who made accusations, not without a more thorough investigation. Its okay to withhold comment until more information is available. We don't have to repeat everything we hear.

[uponit7771]

13. AMEN!! The people calling for any accused to step down is just repeating Franken Ratfuck ...

... where one person who accused Franken said he squeezed her side fat ... I pray that's not repeated.

[PatSeg]

35. I knew some really decent people

who bought into the Al Franken accusations without giving him the chance to defend himself. It was at a time when new credible accusations were coming out almost every day, so it was easy to slip a bogus one in there. Republican operatives know what they are doing. They are really good at it and have no attachment to truth or principles.

As a woman, I will always listen with an open mind to sexual abuse allegations, but I will not assume someone is guilty just because they've been accused. We should be better than that. We need to learn to stop and take a breath before we pass judgment.

3. The consistent thing to do is have an investigation...

...like the one Franken didn’t get or the one Kavanaugh wasn’t given. I’m not equating the two in anything except that neither had an investigation of the claims against them as they should have.

[theboss]

5. Ok. Who investigates?

Because I got nothin'.

[TCJ70]

8. The people who had or would have had jurisdiction at the time?

I don’t know but that seems like the most right option to me. I just know that we live in a time when anyone can say anything...and the only way to clear things up is to take a closer look at these situations.

[theboss]

26. So we ask the Boston police to investigate date rape from 15 years ago

And the Durham police to investigate a rape at Duke in 2000. Can that one even be prosecuted?

[TCJ70]

27. Yes. That's really the only viable option at this point.

It’s not right to pass judgement based solely on accusations. If the statute of limitations has passed so be it, I guess, but either way, an accusation isn’t credible based solely on its existence.

It sounds like this second person has contemporary evidence that should be very easy for law enforcement or investigation professionals to go through and verify.

[uponit7771]

29. "It's not right to pass judgement based solely on accusations." THANK YOU !! That's not #metoo!!!

Is to convict someone in part or whole solely off an accusation

[uponit7771]

9. Same group who investigated Ellison

[uponit7771]

7. Right, investigation like what Kieth Ellison got would do us all good

[TCJ70]

10. Yep. N/t

[Rustyeye77]

4. # metoo

First he allegedly FORCES a woman ( disgusting ) to perform fellatio on him.

Now he allegedly RAPES ( disgusting ) a woman.

All Northam did was a stupid act...not illegal by sexually assaulting women.

[standingtall]

11. republicans are going to have no problem supplying accusers

sense they now know that's all it takes for us to demand someone resign.

[uponit7771]

15. Yep, for them #metoo is guilt by accusation now.

[DFW]

25. With a complicit media as well

[KPN]

31. We are training them well. Rewards always

reinforce behavior.

[TheRealNorth]

12. He deserves an investigation

But I doubt he will get one before he is compelled to resign.

[uponit7771]

17. He would be foolish to resign before calling for the due process Ellison got

[boston bean]

14. No. She told people about it at the time. He MUST resign and be lucky he ain't in jail.

[uponit7771]

16. That STILL doesn't mean forgo due process. Fairfax is calling ....

... for an investigation.

#metoo doesn't mean guilt by accusation ESPECIALLY when the KGOP is apt at ratfucking

[boston bean]

21. Nope. His due process is to resign and be grateful he wasn't prosecuted.

[uponit7771]

23. Like Franken?

[boston bean]

24. Did women accuse Franken of Rape and had documented it at the time??

This is not at all like Franken.

[uponit7771]

28. No, they accused him of assault ... ie touching them in ways they didn't want and had documetantion

... too ie pictures seeing one of them had a picture of him squeezing her love handles.

Again.

#metoo does ... NOT ... mean guilt by accusation ... FUCK THAT !!!

DNC should investigate and give a verdict, the VA state DNC is an embarrassment

[KPN]

32. Huh? On what basis should he resign?

[uponit7771]

33. THIS !!!! Especially when this issue can be investigated by VA DNC like Ellison was !!

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

30. Certainly not looking good for him... he deserves to be heard though, just like his accusers.

[madville]

18. Just saw in another post that there are three more alleged

Victims talking to the media now. I don't think he can survive this second one but if one or two more credible accusations surface over the weekend I doubt he makes it past Monday.

[uponit7771]

22. None of that means Franken2.0, investigations are part of due process ... NoFranken2.0 ... doing

.... the same thing another day expecting different results.

[progressoid]

19. This is hardly the same as Al Franken's situation.

[uponit7771]

20. Doesn't have to be, due process is needed and Franken didn't get it where Ellison did and so should

... Fairfax

[Blue_true]

34. I think that an investigation is called for. nt
