"Mr. Anderson, you allege that on the night of 14 December 2010, the defendant robbed you on the corner of 24th St. and Broadway Ave. Am I correct in this?"

"Yes. He robbed me. Took my wallet."

"He took your wallet, Mr. Anderson? You mean, surely, that he tore your pants off and physically removed your wallet with his own hands?"

"Well no, it wasn't quite like that..."

"Well what was it like, Mr. Anderson?"

"He told me to give him his wallet and threatened me."

"And did you hand over your wallet, Mr. Anderson?"

"Well... well yes I did."

"So you willingly removed your own wallet and transferred possession of said wallet to the defendant?"

"No, he robbed me! He said he had a gun!"

"Did he, Mr. Anderson? Did he really say that?"

"Yes!"

"My client denies any such thing. What do you have to say?"

"He said he had a gun, and to give him his wallet."

"And did the defendant touch or harm you in any way?"

"Well... no... nothing happened like that... I was afraid!"

"Did you tell him that?"

"What? No! What kind of question is that?"

"So here we are left to believe only your word, Mr. Anderson? Your word that you freely handed over your wallet to the defendant, with no signs of violence, no evidence of any untoward actions, and yet you insist on wasting our time with this?"

"I was robbed!"

"That is precisely the issue under question, Mr. Anderson. Simply repeating yourself doesn't help. Mr. Anderson... were you drinking on the night of 14 December 2010?"

"Well yes... I was coming home from a pub I was at with my friends."

"Really, Mr. Anderson. How much did you drink?"

"Well I don't know really... a few beers, a couple shots... there was a birthday..."

"Ah, so it would be safe to say that you were suffering from, let us say, impaired faculties?"

"I know what happened to me!"

"Do you, Mr. Anderson? I can have an expert testify before the court that even moderate alcohol consumption greatly affects memory."

"This is insane!"

"No, Mr. Anderson, this is Conservative Court."

We don't think they're pro-rape. We just think they're anti-women. And the slew of proposed legislation this year alone backs that view up.

I'm just being ~over-emotional~. Because of my womanly ways.

Ok, this made me laugh because I really am planning on baking cupcakes today. But from a Duncan Hines box mix. My womanly skills are not up to par.

Someone needs to get on that send someone things through the internet app. But not before the slap someone over the internet app. That one's much more important.

I made gingerbread from scratch this weekend. You make a poor, but understandably so, female.

I hate to cook, my wife loves to cook, fortunately she also is an excellent cook.
All three of my boys love cooking, fortunately my oldest grandson shows no interest, it's about time there was another "real" man in the family....LOL.

Is that why so many of them keep getting caught having sex with other men?

lol, possibly. And I was so glad when I parented your comment, in my inbox I thought it was a "women are sluts" comment and was all hell no.

Well in all honesty I actually disagree that these bills are actually evidence of them being "Anti Woman" because they assume there is only one possible interpretation of what it means to be "Pro Woman".

However I disagree with the moralistic thrust of their agenda even if to do agree with a couple of their policies and some of their economics.

That said, no women are not sluts. Well at least not enough of them are.

See I think being a "Slut" is a GOOD thing, and no not because it means I have a better chance of getting laid but rather because it means they have a healthy respect and appreciation for the pleasures their body is capable of enjoying and do not let other peoples moral expectations of how they should behave interfere with their lives.

They're anti-women because they vote anti-women!!!

Your logic is stellar

well since all I know about them is their actions and voting record that's what I'm going to judge them on. Do I think all Republicans are anti-women? Of course not, but I think the men proposing the recent anti-women legislation are.
