This is going to be expensive here in California. Will have to change the names of a bunch of schools, parks, streets and such.

She had an affair and bore him children?

But now she wants to say she was abused?

Is she looking for some kind of payday?

[j.havenfarm]

Oh I don’t think so. We continue to honor Harvey Milk after all

[Uncle Miltie]

The relevant bit:

“ According to the New York Times investigation, Chavez also sexually abused two underage girls in the 1970s. The Times investigation says the abuse occurred roughly between 1972 and 1977, when Chavez was in his 40s. The women told the Times they were molested starting at ages 12 and 13 and one of them said she was raped at 15. Both women told the Times they stayed silent for years, for fear of tarnishing his legacy.”

Maybe it wasn’t fabricated after all.

Yeah but its Commiefornia, heck people here still like NewSCUM even though he set the Palisades on fire in order to “Reimagine” it in his own commie vision, so I doubt this changes anything

[lp boonie]

In Californicate this just gives him creds.

And why should we believe any of this now 30 years after his death. Do they have any REAL evidence?

If there are children involved, then there would be quite real genetic evidence.

I'm not a fan of going after the dead. I'm also not a fan of underage girls being sexually abused.

I say, do the testing, let the chips fall where they may.

Dolores, deja de mentir!
(stop lying!)

I speculate all this sudden ‘controversy’ about Chavez is because he was clearly and consistently against illegal immigration. So, some of the younger Progressives have declared him ‘persona non grata’ and want to smear his memory using something like The Bill Cosby Treatment.

Bill was everybody’s best friend in Hollywood until he began to criticize Rapper, Single Baby Mamas, and Welfare Queens.

Children is PLURAL. That means "more than once."

If she had sex with him more than once, it was not "abuse."

[Nervous Tick]

>> She had an affair and bore him children?

Yeah, first kid: “Shame on him!” (maybe)
Kids 2..N: “Shame on HER!” (for sure)

[lightman]

If she had sex with him more than once, it was not "abuse."

It might not have been "abuse" but it may not have been entirely consensual.

[Seruzawa]

Sexual misconduct by a leftist. No surprise here

That cult commie mafioso was never a civil rights leader. He was a shakedown artist criminal thug. I was in college when that bastard sent his goons to shake down the farms in Fresno county. He terrorized farm owners and burned their property. One farmer razed his crop when Chavez’s brother showed up demanding he hired union goons to harvest the grapes and all hell broke loose. Another typical loberal icon even though the liberal idiots erased the Chavez brothers reign of terror agains the LEGAL temp farm workers from Mexico.

Commies gonna commie

[HKMk23]

Huh.

Well, wadyuknowboudat...

The high-profile victim advocate was an oppressor himself.

Are you saying that the first time a husband punches his wife in the face it’s his fault, but every time he punches her in the face after that it’s all her fault? Even if she just lived with it and accepted the abuse, it still could be abusive. Especially if he was an authority figure over her.

"Will have to change the names of a bunch of schools, parks, streets and such."

Hah. Let's start a list of notable politicians that have fathered children out of wedlock. I'll start.

Thomas Jefferson
Bill Clinton
Jessie Jackson
Possibly some Kennedys
Hunter Biden
That Edwards guy with good hair

Without abortion, most democrats and many rebublicans would be paying child support to their mistresses. Unless you have them murdered.

Cue Teddy Kennedy, Gary Condit, Joe Scarborough, etc.

"Are you saying that the first time a husband punches his wife in the face it’s his fault, but every time he punches her in the face after that it’s all her fault?"

Well stated, Rad.
