Yes, we will do that on the same day that anyone gives a shit about what you think.

"There are reasons why white gun's rights activists can walk into a Chipotle restaurant with assault rifles and be seen as gauche nuisances while unarmed black men are killed for reaching for their wallets or cell phones, or carrying children's toys."

+1 Daniel. Well done.

UPDATE: Discussion about this piece has turned into an argument about whether Max Temkin has a right defend himself, especially if he is wrongly accused. Of course he does, and I never meant to imply that he does not. He and his accuser are both innocent until proven guilty. They both deserve empathy and none of us…

I believe you should not expect humility from others when you cannot show it yourself. Temkin has shown far more of it than you do. More specifically, contrary to your claims, he has admitted to making a mistake. When will you admit yours?

2% is 1 out of 50. 8% is 1 out of 12.5. That 6% spread might as well be the pacific ocean.

I'm going to try and be a little more polite about this than a fair few other people. Patricia Hernandez, I appreciate your writing and your contributions to this site, but this is absolutely over the line. This piece of writing is absolutely deplorable, it's insulting to both rape victims and people who were falsely…

No, it doesn't show that at all. Why do you think that it does?

Those would be places with poorly defined distinctions between VERY different things.

Basically, as far as I can tell, the complaints are threefold:

You didn't say it was unreasonable, but you did describe it as "not cool", "kind of gross", and all around portrayed it as if he is doing something wrong or unreasonable, with one of your paragraphs coming close to mocking him as if he is indeed doing something unreasonable. I will quote:

I think its important to point out that those stats reflect *official* rape allegations, those that are filed to the police. That is not the case here, facebook posts are far from official. Though it is important to note that the number of rapes actually reported to the police are incredibly low, I'm guessing the…

100% of rapists are human. I guess we're all guilty...

Without picking sides, why should the onus be on Max to start a public discussion about consent and rape culture? He publicly addressed the situation and his accuser in a similar forum that was used to accuse him. He professed his innocence. I'm not a lawyer, but I think that it would be unwise for him to open the…

While his response is odd... I find this post a bit more troubling. It seems like this post is saying "we're going with Temkin's version of events happened, but..."

Actually, I got the (terrifying) impression that people are trying to make the case that awkward making-out can be considered rape if one of the participants wasn't really into it.

His concern wasn't for the public, it was for his personal stake in the matter. That was far more important then starting a nationwide conversation, especially since he doesn't seem to have any idea of what exactly she thought was assault.

I think I would put Mario Kart 7 on top, and 64 way higher, both for the quality of their courses.

You, sir, are awesome at that. Here's hoping that Seth MacFarlane sees these videos and finds some way to make use of your unique talent.

As soon as the right porn producer sees this, this guy is gonna get LAID.
