what?

No, you don’t understand. Only bassguitarhero has valid points. All other points are null.

They don’t care about it, at any rate.

I dunno. I see your point, but once her name is out there, it’s out there. I don’t think “sanctions” are going to really make up for that or scare a legal team that claim that rape isn’t possible if the victim is over the age of consent.

The time frame makes it really clear, to me anyway. The first text from her is April and she tells him to leave her alone, he says he will. He contacts her again in early June and she makes it extra clear that he needs to leave her alone and “stop reaching out” to her. In July she finally goes to the cops, and in…

I’m on my way to get the littlest one!

I don’t think it’s clear that he doesn’t get it. It might be that he doesn’t get it, or it might be that he’s, you know, harassing and intimidating her. I mean, not taking no for an answer is kind of the definition of rape, isn’t it?

The part where he keeps saying he’ll leave her alone and then keeps turning up again is terrifying.

She clearly says she said no to sex before she came over, and that he did not respect that. What does that mean to you?

Well, you’ve cheered me up! Carry on!

Ha! Sorry! I realized I was being a pointless butt and deleted myself apparently at exactly the same time you were responding. I’ll remain a butt and let the chips fall where they may from now on.....

Ghandi and King have more lasting impact on the world than anybody who ever beat up a bus. Chair guy has had more lasting impact on this protest, that picture is powerful in the extreme. They may try, but ultimately most reasonable people can not ignore a righteous person who will not be drawn and will not go away.…

that medic needs “medic” on his chest in much louder letters, maybe with a red cross symbol as well. I would never have noticed he wasn’t a soldier if the article hadn’t prompted me to look closely and realize he was a medic. I guess the nitrile gloves might have been a clue, but you don’t exactly think about stuff…

Mr. Trump? You’re on thin ice if you start making hair jokes, sir.

this is an excellent point. I was picturing the pie going in vertical like in the three stooges, but if it made contact horizontally like a frisbee (especially if still in the pie pan) and from a distance, it could be a useful weapon.

subtle. +1 prickly hat.

He’s pesky that way.

Hubs and I got married in our front yard, I would never consider doing anything more fancy than that.

Even better! Amazing!
