Right, because the data shows that the working class is convicted. It may not be the numbers you want, but it happens.

Without also providing the number of ultra wealthy convicted, the figure is meaningless to this conversation.

Way to take accountability yourself for editing my comments to better serve your argument.

What did I edit? I copy and pasted it.

You're the one using a strawman.

You omitted my statements that it isn't only the rich or Epstein class that avoid rape convictions. Editing out parts of my comment to fit your narrative is dirty.

When less than 10% of rape cases are convicted, there's very little accountability for any rapists at all.

It is dismissive and spreading misinformation to push that only the wealthy dodge rape convictions.

I know basic math might be hard for some, but 10% and 0% are different numbers. 10% is more than 0%.
