I find the debate over whether or not a sleeping woman can msanthrope Aug 2012 #11

I'm certainly not debating that Scootaloo Aug 2012 #15

Because they want to arrest him, not question him. And they have no power msanthrope Aug 2012 #17

I think the debate is over whether or not she was actually sleeping. girl gone mad Aug 2012 #57

women lie. men lie. children lie. human beings lie. there isn't one group that's more or less HiPointDem Aug 2012 #12

Yeah, but sometimes the source of the lie matters. The Doctor. Aug 2012 #24

Wow mythology Aug 2012 #33

That's a pretty ridiculous interpretation of what I said. The Doctor. Aug 2012 #60

It's good to have high profile rape case where the woman is the proven liar cpwm17 Aug 2012 #37

That wasn't a myth exactly Nevernose Aug 2012 #39

Very valid concern. The Doctor. Aug 2012 #23

That is NOT the reason rape victims have trouble treestar Aug 2012 #36

Umm.... except for the fact that rape victims are often treated as liars.... The Doctor. Aug 2012 #61

Which version? She changed her story three times. A fact her own attorney acknowledges sabrina 1 Aug 2012 #63

"And of course there is Assange's own statements to the police which deny all of the allegations." NCTraveler Aug 2012 #73

Thanks for proving my point. If 'she said it' it must be true even if she changes the story sabrina 1 Aug 2012 #74

You said it is rare for a guy to deny criminal allegations. NCTraveler Aug 2012 #75

I was talking about this case. I said that throughout the discussions of this case it has been sabrina 1 Aug 2012 #77

By charges I assume you mean allegations as stated in that PDF - page 21. dipsydoodle Aug 2012 #14

No...charges. The Belmarsh magistrate detailed the differences msanthrope Aug 2012 #16

The photo cannot clear Assange because the rape allegation is a pretext to get him to Sweden. AnotherMcIntosh Aug 2012 #18

If you read Sweden's official prosecutor's page about Assange Swagman Aug 2012 #19

There is nothing tricky about it. They aren't looking to question Assange. msanthrope Aug 2012 #31

LOL, the talking points are getting confused reorg Aug 2012 #44

No...the British court does not agree with the Swedish prosecutors on that point. msanthrope Aug 2012 #48
