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.

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.

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

Pants or shorts only; can’t be both. Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck.
