@Uber_Support we have a family of 6 and the new covid restrictions say 5. We reserved an XL for pick up tomorrow am. Are we able to all go together still?

@antonia_okafor Gorgeous momma!!

We have to do better!! The fact that I never have to worry about my rapist being released from his sentences should not be what makes my case so rare. #MeToo

It’s September 5th—the 13th anniversary of my rapist being sentenced to prison. Though he was given 24-life in the Colorado Department of Corrections, we have already started the parole process. #MeToo

@GEICO_Service @noleforjustice @Geico you completely missed the point 🤦🏻‍♀️. Your marketing strategy is putting victims of violent crime in a possession where they will no longer be safe. Please do better. @noleforjustice doesn’t want your empty apology- - we want you to FIX it. #metoo

@Kimberly_Corban This is GOLD!!

@Cameron_Gray @ChrisCuomo From where I’m sitting- as a survivor of rape my #RightToChoose begins and ends at abortion... 🙄 Apparently it’s extreme, paranoid and absurd to want the #RightToChoose how to defend my body before I have to tell the government to stay out of it. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Someone said to me “You don’t look like a rape victim” They meant it as a compliment, but my question is - What does a rape victim look like? And to take it one step further - What does a rapist look like?

ONCE AGAIN A REMINDER: Rape isn’t a joke or a punchline. It certainly isn’t “hilarious”.
This should go without saying.

I bet if congress’ pay checks were withheld during the shutdown there would be a solution real quick!

[Brenda Tracy @brendatracy24]

Did you know rape survivors experience the same PTSD as combat veterans? In fact, 30% of all PTSD cases are survivors of sexual violence.

No one would ever tell a combat veteran “Get over it, it happened a long time ago”

Let’s show survivors that same respect #SetTheExpectation

@dirtyfiends @KatiePavlich @hunterzzz May not be what's "fair"- life rarely is- BUT it is what's constitutional.

[Amanda Collins @CollinsAmanda85]

@hunterzzz @KatiePavlich I was never given such a previldge to negotiate the terms apon which I testified against my rapist. He was less than 20ft away from me. It was beyond difficult/ traumatizing but it was my duty and its what our justice system calls for. He was proven guilty beyond doubt.
