How do I know that I’ve experienced trauma? Because I experienced it. I don’t need to prove it to you or anyone.

Your experiences are your own and nobody is asking you to prove yourself. You are valid as is.

However, one should not be saying someone IS a vile thing when they've only been ACCUSED (and not convicted) of being a vile thing.

I apologize for my last comment. I didn’t address the character or nature of Ed Murray. I addressed what he did. What he did do. He did do what he was accused of. I’m glad to take the downvotes to vocally say that I believe his victims. The vast majority of sexual assault victims never see a jury, and even if we do we never stand a chance of proof in that court.

As noble as your sentiment is, it's a dangerous and stupid approach to take on legal matters of that importance.

It’s not just a legal matter. I’m amazed that as a victim of sexual assault I’m repeatedly being lectured about the burden of proof of sexual assault. I suppose I can just assume y’all don’t believe me either unless I go to court to confront my assaulters and win?
