Look at these dudes just making poo up about the massage therapists but wanting no conclusion jumping about Watson. Pathetic.

Typical misogyny. It's really sad what women have to go though to just have the same rights.

Ok so simply just awnser the question and you won't be misrepresented. Do you think believing a victim is wrong? Or is the victim a lier till they can be proven right? 

From a legal perspective, you have to be proven to be a victim! Whether you admit it or not, Watson could be the victim here. That's why you let all the facts come out before you rush to judgement, particularly when you have suspicious circumstances and people reluctant to step out from behind the veil of confidentiality to the opposing counsel at the very least.

No, some of us actually believe in the theory behind American jurisprudence (which has its origins in English common law), even if hypocrites don't mete it out fairly. 

So now you've a hypocrite for supporting female victims though sexual assault? Or do laws only apply to men?

Ok so what you are saying is the victim is a lying until proven right?

You love your straw man arguments!

You love not defining your arguments. Either say what you mean or don't say anything. Dancing around trying to not seem like a misogynist while saying misogyny statements is the game you play.

It's pathetic that you don't appreciate the spirit of the law.

Oh I appreciate it. I appreciate the 12 jury members more though. People have progressed a bunch in the past 12 year and the old Ad hominem defense doesn't work anymore.

If you're not strong enough in reading comprehension to understand what I've said very clearly, that's a personal issue!

I don't support misogyny, lying, misrepresenting the facts, or plain old hypocrisy, which is a big part of America's existence, and I feel great about it! I don't have any moral dilemmas at all about my sense of fairness and justice! You may, but that's your issue!

Yeah your argument is so Propositional fallacy I'm trying not to laugh.

You can't believe either side.  You have to let the facts make the case.  I am not going to believe a woman who is afraid to reveal her name even in confidentiality to the man you are accusing.

@Snake Let me ask you this.  If a woman came in here and said you sexually assaulted her.  Are we supposed to ban you until you are proven innocent or are we supposed to get the facts and make a decision after all the facts are in.

We can't as a society just assume that because a woman or women come out and make a claim against a person.  The case must unfold and both sides need to investigate a prove their case.

I don't know whether he did it or not.  What I find extremely unfair is that so many women came out in 2+ weeks and not a one of them has given their name.  To me they are hiding something.

    • Ppl want to trade Melo? Am I wrong for thinking that would be a bad idea? 
    • Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.
    • It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?
