I don’t suppose the time lag between the alleged event(s) and the complaint, along with changing stories has anything to do with it. My heart says he’s guilty but my brain recognizes that there has not been proof beyond reasonable doubt and that to work properly, our Justice system demands that it is better to let a 100 guilty go free than to wrongly punish one innocent - hence the requirement to prove beyond reasonable doubt....vs. convincing folks with emotional diatribes.

It seems almost positively sure he was embroiled in deep sin. Sometimes sin can be so deep as to be untouchable by men who fail to fear the Lord. This might be our situation. Before God he does not skate and he must be willing to be steered into repentance if he is to be forgiven.

With all due respect, I have always detested the above statement. Think about it for one moment please. By letting the 100 guilty go free, you are thereby allowing them to further their crime, ie, rape, theft, murder etc.

Guess what? You now just caused hundreds if not thousands of innocent lives to be destroyed... Oh, but you still claim about the “one” innocent nonsense. Sheesh.

Exactly, and if they can convict a wealthy black celebrity with nothing but emotion, imagine what the state will do to the average American who refuses to toe the progressive line.
