Kavanaugh accuser goes public

  1. Death threats are how these 'patriots' function , just be a woman and run for office and the harassment and shootings begin.

    Colorado Dem candidate shot at while sitting in her truck — and she says she’s been getting harassed for months

    Rebecca Cranston, a Democratic candidate for state senate in Colorado, has told police that someone shot at her truck almost as soon as she parked it in her driveway last week.

    Coloradoan reports that Cranston was sitting in her driveway talking on her phone when she heard a loud noise.
    “It didn’t occur to me that it would be a gunshot at first, until we saw the bullet hole,” she explained.

    According to Coloradoan, “it’s not clear if Rebecca Cranston… was targeted or if the shooting was related to other reported shootings in northwest Fort Collins,” where the Democratic candidate resides.

    Cranston reported the shooting to the Larimer County Sheriff’s Office, which says that it is in the initial stages of investigating the shooting, which may be related to two other unsolved shootings that occurred in the area earlier this spring.

    Cranston claims that she has been subjected to harassment during the course of her campaign, which she said has included people staking out her house and stealing her mail.

    “I don’t really feel safe here, frankly,” she said.

    Writing on Facebook Wednesday, Cranston further said that “in the last 9 months, I have filed 3 police reports following disturbing incidences of harassment, including someone following and photographing me and my home.”

  2. Nevertheless it would be interesting if Kavanaugh and Ford both took a polygraph administered by the same technician. It would be especially interesting if one showed evidence of lying while the other did not. Go with the flow.

  3. Ah, the glories of the Second Amendment combined with an idiot at the helm spewing venom and hate.

  4. Yes, the talking heads would find it interesting. We should not be concerned with what's interesting in such serious matters, only what is relevant and legal.

  5. A hearing is not a court of law. It is only in a court of law, as I understand it, that the polygraph is inadmissible. So the idea is interesting from a practical standpoint.

  6. Dreadful ;) I am using voice dictation so edited that last post.

    Anyway her not having a strong memory of talking about it does not mean others did not hear/see something in a busy house party. Sounds like Bret Kavanaugh was a raging drunk on a few occasions as a teen. Nothing surprising there. "Bart O'Kavanaugh" from the co-accused/friend's book sound like a minor character from an Animal House movie.

  7. I accidentally just read some Kavanaugh story comments on Foxnews and it struck me strongly that the US is screwed. I try not to look as I feel brain damaged by doing so. It is pure gibberish. Youtube the same, I'm sure CNN is bad also.

    I've used the internet since university, so early I know what xcoffee was. I've never chatted in a forum before this place other than practical stuff about car repair and work etc.

    Is there a way to just delete or time suspend an account? I have a profound need to go to the mountains away from it all for a year... But I do have a short at 2927 and a 2nd entry at 2928.25. (edit moved to 2930)

    It is not fair, I find trading, I'm good at it and then Donald Trump runs/gets elected and it makes me want to throw up every day seeing his face.

    Though there is one good post:
    "How many of you that went to one school knew 65 students from another school who on a day 35 years after you went to one school and they went to another were to find out that they all woke up on the morning of a much later day and in coral voice said, “Let’s write a letter together?” "

  8. It's interesting that Kavanaugh dismissed out of hand even being at such a party when another person remembers having heard about the incident at the time.

    Posting too lengthy and disjointed to read.
