The accusers are the ones that implied they dont want an investigation standingtall Feb 2019 #19

This charge is wrong too Bradshaw3 Feb 2019 #24

If they welcome an investigation, why don't they ask law enforcement to conduct one Empowerer Feb 2019 #25

Not at all Bradshaw3 Feb 2019 #50

A lot of folks defended Weinstein, just like a lot of folks defended Cosby gratuitous Feb 2019 #5
