  Well, given that your common sense has failed you here, maybe it’s worth asking yourself where else it could fail?

      Are you confusing me for somebody else?

      The only statement I’ve made is that he’s been accused of heinous wrong-doing and the court room is the right place to decide on his guilt.

      How else would you do it?

        Nope, you’re the moron who is thinking you can apologize for some dipshit rapist and that the rest of us won’t just dismiss you and what you have to say on its face.

        It’s been known since 2006 when Dannii Minogue spilled the beans on him in an interview.

        Now stop defending rapists, you clown.

      rape apologia

      So the presumption of innocence, and that people shouldn’t be condemned without due process of law, a foundation of the British constitution since Magna Carta, is rape apologia?

        It is when it’s pretty blatantly just an excuse to defend a rapist.

        If you’re gonna motte-and-bailey a rapist out of consequences you could at least be more subtle about it
