About Roy Moore
During his legal career, Judge Moore became the first full-time Deputy District Attorney in Etowah County, Alabama, and served in this position from 1977 until 1982. In 1984, Judge Moore undertook private practice of law in Gadsden, Alabama.
Given this was right before Christmas in '77, it's safe to say he was before that was written.

Yep... but not to get into the minutia on this. Not sure we require anything terribly complex to determine that there was clearly 2 different pens used to sign this yearbook.
A couple of other things... and folks really might want to ponder it without this case being in focus....
We are "trying" all these cases in the court of public opinion. Dismissing this HUGE issue of the signature, because we think Moore is a dirtbag who likes teen girls... we are completely comfortable doing so because the bar of evidence is between our ears, and in a pretty big way, ends where our politics ends.
All of this stuff is being led by the media and their sympathies and butt-hurt-ness over the 2016 election.
The fact we are in a time where dirtbag predators are being outed big time is an important moment for America. But don't kid yourself. Accusations are going to be weaponized for the politics of destruction, and people will have their lives ruined because of those accusations, by people with malice who want to ruin them, or get them out of the way.
That may have happened already. I detest Al Franken... and our politics couldn't be further apart. But the guy was tied to the tracks by the Dems and he was made a sacrifice by those "in power" in the DNC.
Don't kid yourself. They said publicly he should resign. The real question was who talked to him one on one and told him what they were going to do to him and his reputation if he DIDN'T resign.
Most folks in America are too wrapped up in their confirmation bias to recognize that the sedan of state has been driven out on the ice... and the ice is VERY very thin where we are.
This stuff about the sexual predation inside DC is the teeny tiny tip of the iceberg... it's way WAY worse, what really goes on.
Another things folks should wrap their minds around: There are significant numbers of folks inside the power structure, that have done things that would shock most average Americans. These people would choose thermonuclear war, over having their laundry aired... and they would do it without hesitation... and that's because of the KINDS of skeletons they have in their closets.
If what is going on on the other side, not the trump side doesn't scare you... you haven't been paying attention AT ALL.

If those younger women he went after were of a legal age, and he didn't assault them, should be still be forced to drop out?

Not if that is the case, no. It's still weird.
I'm more bothered about this, personally.

So having tightly-knit families is a bad thing?
TheRedneck
In response to a question from one of the only African Americans in the audience — who asked when Moore thought America was last "great" -- Moore acknowledged the nation's history of racial divisions, but said: "I think it was great at the time when families were united — even though we had slavery — they cared for one another…. Our families were strong, our country had a direction."
