Given his accusation, should you now have to prove your innocence?
No and neither does Kavanaugh. He literally doesn’t have to address it at all.

Now if I was nominated to the Supreme Court and my candidacy relies on being an ethical person I would have to address it in order to get the job.
 
Witches plan to hex Brett Kavanaugh using effigies, coffin nails, graveyard dirt and more

A Brooklyn, New York bookstore is planning an event for people angered by the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court: A public hex.

Witches will host Oct. 20 event, organizer Dakota Bracciale said. The ritual has sold out of tickets and attracted the interest of thousands. It's intended to "to make Kavanaugh suffer," Bracciale told Newsweek.

About 60 people will be in attendance at the event, Bracciale told USA TODAY on Saturday. The ritual will include effigies, coffin nails, graveyard dirt and — of course — a spell.

Bracciale said the bookstore has organized hexes before, including three last year on President Donald Trump.

Not everyone in attendance will believe in the power of the hex — and that's okay, according to Bracciale,who said he event is in part a means of spiritual or emotional catharsis.

Kavanaugh isn't the only subject of the gathering's anger. Those in attendance will be targeting "all rapists and the patriarchy which emboldens, rewards and protects them," according to the hex's Eventbrite page.

After the hex, a second ritual will be held, according to the listing: "The Rites of the Scorned One." It will "validate, affirm, uphold and support those of us who have been wronged and who refuse to be silent any longer."

Kavanaugh's controversial appointment to the Supreme Court has inspired protests after Christine Blasey Ford publicly accused the judge of sexual assaulting her in high school. Kavanaugh has denied the allegation and was confirmed to the court by a historically narrow margin on Oct. 6.

Bracciale told Newsweek that those in attendance will be "basically Antifa witches ... There are a lot of angry people who are righteously filled with rage that are going to take back our country."

Many of the people in attendance will be sexual assault survivors, Bracciale believes based on feedback from planned participants.

Witchcraft has historically been an outlet for oppressed people to “take matters in their own hands" according to Bracciale.

Tickets for the event cost $10. Organizers say one-quarter of ticket proceeds will go to the Ali Forney Center — a group that supports homeless LGBT youth — and one-quarter will be donated to Planned Parenthood.

Bracciale suggests that those who support the ritual donate to those groups if they are unable to attend.

Witchcraft mixed with political overtones has become an increasing trend, according to an October report by Vox. "Magic as self-care," the article describes the phenomenon.

Hey isis.. Want to get on smart, decent people's good side?

Now if I was nominated to the Supreme Court and my candidacy relies on being an ethical person I would have to address it in order to get the job.

Or you could just say:

"That which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence."

And move on with your day and life.

An assertion without evidence isn't something that a fair, or thinking person should even consider.

Great point. I didn’t expect this from you, but we should have had a real investigation to obtain evidence to either prove or clear Kavanaugh.

Wait, is that your point? I’m sure you’ll be consistent right?!?

Say it with me now...

There is no evidence to be found. It was 36 years ago. The alleged victim doesn't remember shit. No location. No exact time frame. No witnesses. Inconsistent accounts of her story.


Christ, let it go. I can't believe the lack of common sense you guys display with this. They could put every single investigative force in the world on this case, and they still would not be able to confirm anything.

A person who makes an assertion, must provide evidence for that assertion. Otherwise, the listening audience and all other parties involved have no choice but to dismiss that assertion.

Attempting an investigation on a fact that's unknown, and unknowable would yield the same results we're currently at. There's absolutely no way to prove, or disprove these allegations with absolute certainty. You're free to keep on investigating until the sun no longer shines, but you'll never arrived at a different conclusion than the one where all currently at.

If someone brings forward an unknown, and unknowable assertion without evidence, you really have no choice but to ignore it. You can't even make it a part of your decision making process because of the probability of it being untrue.

It might be true there is nothing to find. But it’s piss poor logic to conclude that without an investigation.

You are using a concept applicable to debates. Irl you have to search for evidence, which requires an investigation.

In real life, cases like this get completely ignored because there is no evidence. In real life, its just some woman's vague story that has nothing to back it up. In real life, this case ends when all the alleged eye witnesses say they don't remember it.

Tell me when you've come back down to reality. There are murder cases with far more evidence that go cold after decades, and yet you think they'll find some smoking gun to confirm a guy shoved a girl on a bed in a nondescript location, at nondescript time, that nobody saw 36 fucking years ago.

I refuse to believe anyone is that fucking stupid, so please, stop being dishonest. There is no way you don't know how absolutely ridiculous it is to expect any new findings in this case, that will back up her vague account that has no evidence and is backed up by nobody.

Nope.

"That which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence." is a standard that applies to debate, rhetoric, Theory, and legal investigations and indictments.

What other standard would you want applied to you if you were ever accused of something truly awful?

Irl you have to search for evidence, which requires an investigation.
When no evidence is found to support the assertion, the listening audience and all other parties involved have no choice but to dismiss the assertion.

No evidence will ever be found in instances where the most pertinent fact is unknown, and unknowable.

You're free to investigate until Kingdom Come. You will still arrive at the exact same place everyone else is currently at.

We have corroborating evidence that she told someone about this 30 years later. That makes it true. The fact she told somoeone else about much much later means she couldn’t possibly be wrong or lying.
 
I like when he blatantly lied about not hearing about the reports until the the New Yorker article but his text messages told adifferrnt story.

And the soulless GOP still pushed him thru after he clearly lied like a rat

Did he say until after it was printed? No, that isn't what he said.

Pfft. Gotten to.
 
All jokes aside. She really looks bad there. I thought she fell asleep when he asked his question. Everyone feels comfortable with that level of ability serving on the court?

I thought the same thing. Poor lady can barely hold her head up.
