1. No one said he is a pedophile.. they said he is a rapist. He is.

Have we noted exactly how brave this woman is posting all this stuff. I am sure a few of these guys are the type that react violently to embarrassment. Can we get her some police protection here?

Yes, Why is this idea still out there. People think that because the statement includes some mention of attraction like “I think you are hot so...” that it is a compliment, but somehow miss the “..I think that I will follow rape and kill you.” that follows.

God I am with this guy so much. I got so much flack from friends and family simply for caring about how my wedding went. Fortunately my wife was into compromising and actually wanted my input, but the number of times people told me to just do whatever she wanted and show up was crazy.

Maybe she was only allergic to the crunchy nuts.

Re: Maura’s story- a theory. He was proposing and he had left the ring in the soup and forgot about it. Another theory: He had hidden his heroin stash in there. A third theory: He is an asshole.

Um.. it’s a school shooting if there is shooting.. and its at a school.

Well it is likely that this is why they chose to use workers. Someone thought Slave trade bringing Slaves was redundant. It is not though. Workers does not literally imply wages, but it still is not the best choice.

Okay.. If you call tissues a Kleenex, then you are doing the same thing.

As a Southerner I should be offended, but I am not. It is a weird practice. It comes from how for a couple of generations the only soda anyone ever saw was coca-cola, so when other sodas appeared they were just off brand cokes. That said, I do not know anyone who does this that does not know that it is colloquial and…

Still very common in the south. once upon a time Coke was the only soda here so all other sodas became versions of Coke.

And we have a winner!

I am sorry. I may not be able to help you there. I guess I was too hyperbolic suggesting it was well established in law. Most references I see refer to public school settings, but it mirrors my understanding of how it applies to restaurants.

Well they could use witness testimony of other passengers saying that they were not the most loud and that whites were just as bad. It sounds like most of the train is supporting them.

Classic misdirect. Stats show that they are in fact subjected to harsher rules and tend to get fired more, and hired less. But as it gets more common to call people on that stuff, there are more people who accuse them of being victims for money. Its a bit like people talking about false rape accusations, Even though…

Nope not any time. Although it does seem that anytime someone suspects racism, somebody says that they deserved if because of how they were acting. Usually without asking who else was acting the same way.

Except that apparently there were not a bunch of old people, just some guy and a train full of other people who did not mind. We still do not know for sure, but so far it is leaning their way.

It is not an assumption. It is the news. Even before the suit, it was reported on and other white people on the train concurred. It seems that they were loud but non threatening, got a warning, then had another big belly laugh and were thrown off.

This sounds like the most plausible situation. The customer sees 20% and says its crazy. Waiter says “That’s what we do. The law says we can.” He has a fit and stiffs the waiter.
