    The "person" shouldn't get a say any more than I should get a say as to whether another person should be required to donate a kidney or liver should I need one and they happen to be a compatible donor. Bodily autonomy is the concept at play here, perhaps you should learn what it means.

    Rich people don't have to obey the laws of the land. They have expensive lawyers and give well timed political contributions to skirt the law. Is this really shocking to anyone that Trump has a careless disregard for the law?

    Rashmon would describe Moore's alleged victims as "lucky" if they were male. Or has your opinion changed over the years?

    Trump is not only supporting the child rapist, but will block any efforts to GOP senate leadership to expel Moore. That's your president...

    I see Fox News jumped to support the child rapist... especially after he got tweet-beat and embarrassed.

    Right wing "wingnut" slur aside....(eye roll)

    Do you not think it's possible this type of activity by a Hollywood comedian would be resented by the voters of Alabama? I can actually see them getting angry enough to by this entire incident (all driven by Jimmy Kimmel) to drive them to vote for Moore as a big FU to Kimmel.

    Disparage the people of Alabama all you want, Kimmel probably helped Moore today.

    Moore is already polling 5-10% higher, so no, the tweets won't cause Moore to win. Alabama will vote in a child rapist as their U.S Senator. I don't think anything I can write that would disparage them further.

    Ya, it kinda affirms how shitty they are for believing a group of humans they have almost zero interaction with is deserving of more hate than a child molester.

    It's called tribalism and it is what will ruin this nation.

    Because Moore is a so-called Christian and Alabama voters are that type of Christian? Yea, I guess it can motivate them a bit more.

    Moore's Christian value:

    Textbook co-authored by Roy Moore in 2011 says women shouldn’t run for office


    These are "Christian" that I see parallel with extremist Muslim. Nation under one type of God, ruled by that single type of God's laws. I guess people forgot how the US was founded after a few hundred years.

    Future tense? I detect rose-colored glasses.

    What does it say about the left that they can't beat an alleged sex offender?

    Not much really. It just shows the nature of tribalism in the religious conservative south.

    Not nearly as much as it says about the people who are going to vote for him despite the allegations.
