Good for you! This frenzy has to stop. Either press charges so the truth has a chance of coming out in court it keep your damned mouth shut.

I can’t stand Franken but I’m not sure he should have tarred and feathered over his sick and unfunny comedy. He’s not a Weinstein.

just so we're clear Gigi Habid at 17 when she started as a fashion model:

A man who goes for the top pic and is over 18 is probably normal but a little creepy. A man who is sexual attracted to the bottom pic is a sick criminal, and a pedophile. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE. Words have meaning.

I was 17 and it was a guy on the combine crew I was working with. I kneed him in the groin, picked up a tractor wrench and informed him next time I wouldn’t be so nice. I didn’t even tell the boss but somebody did because the Farm owner (my grandfather) asked me about it when I came in from the field that night. He asked why I didn’t tell him and I responded “I didn’t see the need, I took care of it”.

some of you were raised in a generation where 17 year olds did not look or dress like they do now a day.

“How do you know? Have you ever been falsely accused of child molestation? Burned any witches lately? There is a feeding frenzy going on. These are dangerous times for ALL men in positions of authority over women.”

I simply don’t know how to respond to you! I think anyone taking their own life for any reason is just unthinkable. My comments were just trying to figure out why he did it, since he had not been formally accused and arrested for his alleged crime.
And no, I’ve never been accused by anyone of any crime involving either children or witches. As for a feeding frenzy going on, I’d say it’s about time all these “hidden crimes against women” be brought out into the open, seriously investigated and men either cleared of any wrongdoing or penalized for their actions. And decent men who respect women should want that as much or more than the women who have suffered abuse. If you are a man, and I am making that assumption, you should keep your wisecracks about witches to yourself and start hoping that at least in our government, the time for screwing around with women who don’t want your “attentions” carries a stiff penalty, one that we taxpayers are no longer disposed to pay, along with expulsion or firing, as the case may be.
We should expect a standard of behavior in government that’s even more stringent than in private enterprise. These are people who have been given “the public trust!”

Look but don’t touch isn’t good enough anymore. One of Trump’s accusers didn’t like the way he “ogled” her. And she was in the Miss USA pageant.

Yes I saw her on TV and she sounds utterly ridiculous. Why was she walking around in a bikini on stage I’m sure she understood she was going to be leered at by men. The woman was trying too hard to make a look at her tatas seem like some sexual assault.

most 17 year old now a day don’t look 17

I picked pics of famous females because these are public pics and they are both public figures.

it was just to give people a visual of the real difference between being those ages and why a normal man would be attracted to the top pic, but the bottom pic is a pedophile sick minded criminal.

I'm OK I never considered it. But some meds I should have never been prescribed had me point my index finger to my head back in 1994. My auditory/Optic sensory processing system is bad. When it went full blown so did PTSD brought on from a series of events in a few years tieme starting in 1985. The unexpected death of my first wife age 24, then afterward meeting someone I got serious about and she went quad on a date, becoming a dad, caregiver, and nearly loosing her several times especially early on, youngest daughter in a wreck I arrived on scene as they were covering her body to cut her out but I thought the worst. Then being in a wreck where I was rear ended and I thought a baby died. It didn't. Then right after that my health issues hit.

I got help a darn good therapist got me through PTSD in a few years and a doctor who finally listened when others wouldn't figured out what was going on and stopped all antidepressants and started me on low but full time in bloodstream Xanax. From 1994 when I retired at 37 to 2015 I healed PTSD wise.

2015 things happened again as such is life. Within a month my only sibling, my wife, and an aunt I was close too, all passed. I was OK it took time. We'd been married almost 30 years.

This past February I got a call from EMS they had my Mom in the ambulance headed to a Stroke Center Hospital. Doc in ER said 50/50 chance of surviving bad bleeder. Over the next month she went into rapid Dementia and after 5 weeks came to my house and I cared for her till she passed in April. Then in October I had a wreck which every once in a while likes to replay itself in my mind. No one hurt in the wreck but a trigger none the less. PTSD to some is like having to relive having bad events replayed to you like a horror film.

Add to that some events I am not at legal liberty to talk about except in vague unidentifiable ways Yeap I've been around the block a few times. LOL.

I'm OK but I do understand PTSD many have a lot of misconceptions. It seems the preacher had it 16 years. None of us know what he was living through. His note read more like someone who had simply endured more than they could withstand and wanted out than someone who was ever out to hurt anyone. His pain evidently went in silence and unnoticed and he fell through the cracks. A sad ending.

hell it wasn’t that long ago this song was a hit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlN3oEjMpUQ

lol

Yey I saw sparks fly, from the corner of my eye
When I turned, it was love at first sight
I said please excuse me, I didn’t catch your name
Oh it’d be a shame not to see you again
And just when I thought she was comin’ to my door
She whispered sweet and brought me to the floor, she said
I’m only seventeen (seventeen), but I’ll show you love like you’ve never seen

She’s only seventeen (seventeen), daddy says she’s too young, but she’s old enough for me

Come to my place, we can talk it over, oh everything going down in your head
She said take it easy, I need some time, time to work it out, to make you mine
And just when I thought she was comin’ to my door
She whispered sweet and brought me to the floor, she said

I’m only seventeen (seventeen), you ain’t seen love, ain’t seen nothing like me
She’s only seventeen, seventeen yeah yea

Yes! Such a bad girl, loves to work me overtime
Feels good (ha), dancin’ close to the borderline
She’s a magic mountain, she’s a leather glove

Oh she’s my soul, it must be love
She’s only seventeen (seventeen), I used to give her love, like I’ve never seen

She’s only seventeen (seventeen), daddy says she’s too young, but she’s old enough for me (seventeen)
She’s everything I need (seventeen), daddy says she’s too young
But she’s old enough, old enough for me

So you’re saying an accusation is enough to ruin a man’s life. No trial. Just take the accuser’s word as fact. And note I didn’t say women. I said accusers. It could be a man who accuses you. If charges or a lawsuit isn’t filed then they should keep their mouths shut. Or do you agree with Stalin about breaking eggs to make an omelette.

Thanks for refreshing my memory.

Dwyer’s tragic suicide can serve as a grim reminder of what can happen when someone is falsely accused and no one gives the accused the benefit of the doubt.

"local bishop on running 9/11/ morgue"

Normally I avoid speaking ill of the recently deceased. But apparently it is highly questionable if he ever ran a morgue after 9/11.

And that's not all. - link

It turned out that he was INNOCENT all along.

Yup...a very ugly video indeed.In fact the whole thing was ugly.And I do recall having read somewhere that the chief witness against him at trial stated some time later that he had lied.I don't recall if he stated *why* he lied...perhaps it was to get a deal from the prosecutor.That's often the motive for perjury in such cases.

He was accused, not convicted and not even charged.

Around 2005 a worker at my plant was arrested and charged for molesting his young teenage daughter's girlfriend. At the arraignment the female judge even called him a monster......so much for presumed innocence.

After all was said and done, it was revealed that the crazy ex-wife conspired with the girl to make the bogus claim.

At the end of 2006 the plant closed and all employees lost their jobs including Andy.

In the summer of 2007 Andy committed suicide..........

I don’t know how much stock I’d put in what’s on that website - looking around the site it seems to be totally obsessed with the man and it’s either a “public radio” site or somehow connected to NPR. Tirades about “White Nationalist” plots, ICE and so on. The usual leftwing boilerplate.
At any rate, the fellow now faces the best Judge, as we all must someday, and I’ll leave it in His hands to sort things out.
Thanks for the info, tho.
