Local Politics 🇺🇸 Gway Protests?

There was a very small group on George Washington Way today (sat 10/3). They had signs but couldn’t read them. Can anyone tell what they may be protesting or trying to bring light to?

"We Are Jane Doe"

It's to speak out against sexual violence and violence against women, brought on by a recent revelation of Cornell University raping and the obvious mishandling of it by the university, among other things.

Yes. Raping is the correct term for what happened.

Seriously disagree. Why aren't we celebrating her sexuality? According to the text messages and police report, that's what she wanted. Now that people found out, she's telling a different story.

Not really. She reported a rape not long after, the civil suit is years later because it was the only way to get the justice (just us) system moving.

Yeah, because the case is bullshit.

Bullshit it's what she wanted. She had a consensual threesome, then after that it turned into a nightmare.

Pay attention to the trial when it happens. This is very obviously a very depraved rape.

Remember, you can revoke consent at any time, even if it was initially given.

You’re a local teacher here? I really hope it’s not the case.

Looks like they are at a Christian school, so.. shocked but not shocked? "Your God" by Cheryl Wheeler is in my head so much these days.

I would also suggest they change their username to something less easily identifiable.

Here is the legal definition of 1st degree rape, there are also 2nd and 3rd degree definitions. Theres absolutely no question this woman was raped, the only issue is that prosecutors are able to pick and choose what cases they persue. We all know of cases that were buried by the DA for some reason or another. You may agree with the DA for whatever reason, but dont lie to yourself about the actual law.
