    Do you believe that defendants accused of sex crimes should receive a trial, or should an accusation be enough to convict?

    I hope that doesn't come off as a silly question. It seems like it's possible you think that the bad (a handful of wrongful convictions) would be far outweighed by the good (lots and lots and lots more sexual assaulters brought to justice).

    It does come off as a silly question. Your hopes were insufficient.

    It's easy to make a "default assumption" when there are zero attendant consequences.

    "Hey, you expressed approval for a concept. If we strip all context from it and stretch it to a further extreme, wouldn't you agree it looks silly?"

    You don’t have the courage of your convictions and now you are in defense mechanism mode.

    This is awesome if you imagine it as a Russian bear arguing with a Precious Moments doll.

    There’s no argument. He refuses to argue!

    That is correct. I have no interest in arguing or debating.
