A lot of us did stupid stuff at 17. Some of us did stupid stuff at 25.

Most of us didn’t engage in sex assaults.

Sex assaults are among the most vile crimes and we continue to victimize the victims when they do come forward.

Kavanaugh didn’t do just do stupid stuff.

He’s alleged to have engaged in sex assault. That’s a felony. And at age 17, that means getting treated as an adult in most jurisdictions.

If you’re black, you’d be damned sure that they’d treat you as an adult with the same allegations. So yeah, this matters.

This matters a lot.
