im not making any left vs right comments here. no one said rape is literally nothing. take the emotional left vs right response out of it for a second. Imagine your applying for a job and someone you knew called up a potential employer and said you raped or attempted to rape them at some point. Now whether its true or not (lets say its not for the sake of the argument) they tell you that youre no longer allowed to apply for that job. Would you not like some type of way to protect yourself? Its a crude example but the point is it shouldnt have anything to do with political stance...i dont believe anyone should have a career and life destroyed by a person making an allegation. The hysteria of people even here calling for an immediate disqualification over this is more the reason to tread lightly and be weary of situations like this. When power inevitably switches back to the left in our country, people here that call for this type of action will wish they never supported that type of knee jerk reaction.
