Just for fun, let’s assume this really happened and let’s assume charges were filed. How do we know that Kavanaugh wasn’t a juvenile at the time? If so, his identity wouldn’t have been reported.
Then if he was charged and received a punishment, what would that have been?
Would that have precluded anything he did afterward including going to college, law school etc?
I have an acquaintance who, while in high school, was driving while drunk and killed a woman. He went on to go to college and law school and is a practicing lawyer. He is an excellent person. Certainly he pays for his mistakes, on some level, every day of his life.
Does what Kavanaugh allegedly did really warrant ANY of this?
If we are going to hold people accountable for things they did in high school then we have a lot of work ahead of us.
“Does what Kavanaugh allegedly did really warrant ANY of this?”
Don’t be absurd. Of course not.
Even I, the least likely 17 year old in America to do something like this in 1967 in fact did do something quite like this (in 1967).
Girls are a steep learning curve. At 17 and at 67. That’s the way of things.
