Finally someone speaks some common sense, I expect him to be promptly drawn and quartered for such an offense in short order.

I have been in that position, lo these many years ago. Fortunately I was not accused of rape, although I was thanked.

(1) There are morons on this board supporting Galloway's line of "reasoning" - which is that if a woman gives you permission to sleep with her once, it is an unlimited ticket to further intercourse whether or not she is willing or even conscious.

That mindset is beneath contempt. It is not "politically incorrect", it is not "conservative" - it is ungentlemanly and morally bankrupt.

(2) It is not up to Julian Assange to decide whether or not he should be questioned. A woman lodged a complaint and it needs to be investigated.

(3) Assange is not a journalist, a freedom-fighter or a hero. He is a thief and a grifter on the make.

(4) His alliance with the government of Ecuador - a country that imprisons and harasses journalists for daring to publish commentary critical of the government - shows his true colors.

(5) Assange ceaselessly publicizes his case and solicits donations for his defense - yet he rarely talks about Bradley Manning, even though Manning believed his nonsense and will die in prison for it. Assange has raised multiple millions of dollars on the back of Manning's crime and has not contributed one dollar of it to manning's legal defense.

(6) Wikileaks has leaked basically one thing of any notoriety - Manning's stolen material. Wikileaks as a concept and as a reality is a complete joke and a scam for Assange to hoodwink true believers.

I would agree only insofar as there are situations where I believe consent is presumed unless specifically withdrawn.

For instance — in most marriages, there is a state of standing consent. There are lots things you can do to your spouse (flash, goose, grope, wake-up call, etc.) that would easily be assault or rape if done to anyone else. They’re not only not-assault when done to your spouse, they’re usually called “spicing things up”.

I disagree completely that this is one of those cases. Consent can’t be presumed or implied with sleeping strangers. Assange raped this girl.

The Brits have managed to bring someone to the forefront that is even more stupid than Biden.

However, Slow Joe is at least likeable.

Gallaway is - if this is possible - even more disgusting than is the Obamadork.

“Anti-rape campaigners”

Isn’t that normal society?

Are there any pro-rape campaigners?

Recalling Galloway’s political positions in the past, I’m sure he approves sex with women up to 4 hrs. after her death also.
He’s a Muzzie lovin’, America hating ba@#ard.
