"Rough sex" without freely given mutual consent is abuse and assault

At least Democrats have no problem with dismissing someone on our side who abuses people.

I never expect the GOPrs to have the same response. I think that we all know why.

And one is an attorney,

And one is not just any attorney, but the state AG, then:

One obtains clear unambiguous evidence of consent.

One does not expect to rely on “I beat them up and they needed medical treatment, but they wanted it.”

No. Fucking. Way.

Text messages, email, chat logs, cell phone video.... whatever.

Not buying it. Next.

Except for all the posters here who love to throw around the word "ratfucking" whenever a Democrat's bad behavior is exposed, as if it's impossible to believe.

And so did Schneiderman by stepping down. Of course, he could have just NOT been abusive to women too.

How the hell do you compartmentalize that sort of stuff when you are a prosecutor? I don't understand. There must be some sort of mental disconnect going on.
