Do you understand the principle of credible evidence? Substantiated, Credible, Proven evidence. If not, you are as bad as the Anti-Vaccine people. In SCIENCE, evidence is peer-reviewed publication is a reputable journal. In LAW, we go based on the legal system and innocence until proven guilty.
1) Because publicly admitting that you’re a pedophile and saying creepy things to kids isn’t a criminal offense. That’s what I personally possess evidence of. 2) Because I’m not a prosecutor goofball. I legally do not have the authority to bring charges against anyone, no matter what evidence I have. Do you want to tell me more about the criminal legal system again?
That particular exchange was really narrow in scope and Prof. Wurman had taken on a pretty indefensible proposition. I think most of my colleagues would have caught him in the same lie, I was just quick on my feet that day lol. Dude tried to argue the Citizenship Clause only protects those who’s parents can bring suit in fed court (and then fucked up that analysis) but his test would have left Dred Scott intact so it’s obviously bunk.
There’s a difference between meeting the legal standard for criminal culpability, and having enough evidence that a reasonable person would infer you’re guilty. Donald Trump is in that second category. Is it illegal to buy a beauty pageant for teenagers? No, but it’s fucking weird. Is it illegal to be close friends with an infamous pedophile? No, but it’s going to earn you some allegations.
