As an ex cop (1980's) that took many reports from many people for assaults. If I would have turned in a report that read like this drivel, my Sergeant after I turned reports in would have given me some very choice suggestions on what could and could not be turned over to Detectives or DA's office for investigation. His suggestions would have been on how to look for a different line of work probably.
KAVANAUGH DID NOT TAKE OFF HER SWIMSUIT.
The woman ‘felt’ Kavanaugh wanted to rape her.
KAVANAUGH DID NOT RAPE HER. NO RAPE HAPPENED.
The woman ‘felt’ Kavanaugh wanted to hurt her.
KAVANAUGH DID NOT HURT HER.
-----------------------------
What if a rapist used the following (very similar) defense?
A rapists says he ‘felt’ the woman was coming on to him because of the way she smiled.
The rapist ‘felt’ she ‘wanted it’ because she didn’t push him away fast enough.
The rapist ‘felt’ it was OK because all women say ‘no’.
NO ONE WOULD BUY THE RAPISTS BS... AND IT SHOULD BE THE SAME WITH THE WOMAN ACCUSING KAVANAUGH. What matters is ‘what happened’ not what she was ‘feeling' about what 'might' happen.
ACTIONS MATTER... INTERNAL ‘FEELINGS’ might or might not have anything to do with the reality of what happened. ___________________________
