Former Zara employee, here.

I think UO also got caught a while back doing the same thing. (I know Anthropologie has.) So I’m glad they’re doing it now, but I wonder how much of it was because they got flack for stealing previously?

The victim’s letter addressed that and it’s awesome.

“My son doesn’t eat chips with the same veracity any more, boohoo.”

Also, this piece of the victim’s letter to Turner:

For those in Santa Clara County!!

But, y'know, only for twenty minutes or so...

I guess that means I can beat on him for 20 minutes with a baseball bat and I shouldn’t face any serious consequences, right?

That’s all the son thinks he did wrong too. He blames binge drinking and sexual promiscuity. Wonder where he got that.

“It’s not like he was raping her for days, you know? He’s not some kind of sexual pervert. It was just a good-natured drunken mistake. Like that one time when I went to our neighboring college and stole their mascot. OOOHBOY WAS THAT A NIGHT! But should that be held against me for my whole life? No, and my father took

This makes me so angry I can barely breathe. Hey Shitbag! This is 1/1000th of what it’s like to live with being raped EXCEPT YOU FUCKING DID IT.

Yeah. Fuck that guy. Now we know where the kid gets the entitled, irresponsible attitude.

From the article:

Men will NEVER admit they are the most dangerous threat to other people in this world. Not all of them, of course, but men in general have caused fare more deaths than any woman, child, or animal (except maybe mosquitos!) . Whether it’s their egos or greed, they seem to be the root of most evil. They’re the ones

Guess what? #thisiswhywestillneedfeminism
