I agree. When they say that, I'd like to ask them to shoot that deer; then let me see you field dress it. Then we'll see how much he likes to hunt.
Actually lets see them field dress a badly gut shot Deer (it does happen...esp where the bullet leaves the target Deer and hits a second one).

Since this thread started out about Roy Moore, I'd like to see the accuser take a polygraph test. Heck, if they're so darned sure they were molested by Roy Moore, let's see them take several polygraph tests.
Now that the election is over, I wonder if Roy Moore will sue his accusers. It might get tossed out of court because, in any slander or liable cases, the plaintiff has to show damages.
The truth in slander and liable cases is also a defense. If Moore's accusers can't back up their claims and Moore shows that they were lying, he still has to show that he was damaged. A jury would probably not rule in his favor just because he lost the election. It would be a different matter if he was a business owner and he suffered from losing customers.
I've been in court so many times and watched people take the stand and lie through their teeth with impunity. Then some Judge, who's mind is already made up, decides who is telling the truth and it's usually the person who is the best actor.
With that said, maybe lie detectors in court would not be a bad thing. Sorry for the thread drift...
