At a congressional hearing on campus sexual assault, Colorado Rep. Jared Polis suggested that expelling students based solely on the idea that they might have committed a crime is an acceptable standard. And the hearing audience applauded him.
Polis, a Democrat, was discussing due process and standards of evidence as they apply to colleges and universities adjudicating sexual assault. Currently, colleges must be only 50.01 percent sure that an accusation is valid before punishing an accused student (more on that later). Polis began advocating for allowing colleges to use a lower standard than that.
"I mean, if there's 10 people that have been accused and under a reasonable likelihood standard maybe one or two did it, seems better to get rid of all 10 people," Polis said. "We're not talking about depriving them of life or liberty, we're talking about their transfer to another university."
For this, the audience applauded.
So to Polis, that eight or nine students are likely innocent should not preclude them from being expelled, because they had been accused of sexual assault.[/url]
The only think worse than Democrats are Colorado Democrats

Lets apply that standard to them...since most Democrats are treasonous scum...better to sh*tcan the whole lot.

I bet if all the elected democratic officials were accused of assault or rape.....he wouldn't want all of them to lose their jobs. What happened to the democratic cry of "it's just sex".
