'Brian Banks': Film Review | LAFF 2018 (True Story of a man falsely accused of rape)
The Hollywood Reporter ^ | 9/26/2018 | Stephen Farber

Posted on 10/02/2018 7:23:13 AM PDT by Repealthe17thAmendment

The only thing wrong with Brian Banks, a powerful film that had its world premiere at the LA Film Festival, is the moment at which it appears. For this movie about a young woman who makes a false charge of sexual assault against a teenage classmate is not exactly primed to win an appreciative audience at a time when men (including a Supreme Court nominee) are vehemently denying charges of sexual misconduct. The opposite of a #MeToo movie, Brian Banks is definitely swimming against the current.

A true story of a man falsely accused of rape shows that women do lie, and at times with catastrophic results.

You really have to watch The Red Pill. Did you know it is fairly common knowledge among some single mothers that if you check the Obituaries before birth and “borrow” a name for the BC you can start getting SS checks on day one? I didn’t.

‘A true story of a man falsely accused of rape shows that women do lie, and at times with catastrophic results.’

but they do not lie about white men, apparently...Hollywood won’t touch that story for a millenium, nor for all the profit in the world...

Guess it is about time to rewatch David Mamet’s Oleanna as well…

The woman who makes a false charge needs to be jailed for twice as long as the innocent male would have been.

The media always seemed incredulous that a woman would make stuff up, but if they just did a little bit of research, they would find many cases of it. Even prominent cases. Duke Lacrosse; the Rolling Stone story; the Columbia mattress girl.

It's not even hard to find false accusations.

I mean, we are freepers for God’s sake! We think we have touched every part of the elephant. Until you watch The Red Pill, you haven’t. Trust me.

Men have also been raped and harassed

MeToo was not to be about sexual assault

It was designed to weaponize Femazis in their male bashing attacks

Either all targets of sexual assault and harassment matter or the issue is strictly political

The IRS & Social Security Administration KNOW that there are over 2 MILLION SS numbers being used by persons OTHER than the correct holder of that number.

Both agencies REFUSE to inform the correct holder of the number so they can get it cleared up.

Talked to an old friend Sun night. HER SS number got used by a local company. She has NO idea how they got the number. It took her over 3 years to get SOME of it straightened out. She still cannot get part of it cleared on her credit report. She finally found out what company used her number on a W-2 for one of their employees & she confronted that company. She got NOWHERE .

Apparently she caught it when she was checking her credit reports.

For over 20 years these same Leftists have disputed the recorded and specific claims of Paula Jones, Juanita Broderick and others. We were told it was Bill Clinton’s personal life. Drag a $20 bill through a trailer park. Nuts and sluts...

Tucker Carlson was accused of rape by a woman he never met in person:

Tucker Carlson almost had his career derailed after a woman falsely accused him of raping her in a packed Kentucky pizza restaurant

we need to have liars receive far greater punishments than they currently do, if we ever hope to get justice and have a hope of a chance to reduce it. sex crimes are the most lied about across the country, cops see rates of up to 40% or so in certain places.

“The woman who makes a false charge needs to be jailed for twice as long as the innocent male would have been.”

AMEN, AMEN AND AMEN. I’ve been saying that for so long and yes, women DO LIE. I hope that somewhere along the line this is made into LAW! It sure would stop the kind of garbage that is now going on with Judge Kavanaugh.
