DC Sexual Assault Thread: We needed one...

Re: DC Sexual Assault Thread: We needed one...

Aren't the accusers part of the problem? For each male pig that did something to harass a woman, had that first woman contacted whatever authority was available (a boss, a boss's boss, the police or a lawyer or multiple) and busted his balls right then and there, the likelihood of future transgressions would have been much much less. Instead for many reasons (including their own personal gain in some cases), they just write it off and it just continues to happen to others, and instead of 1 person affected it's many many more.
This is not what happens in the real world. Kinda like all the superstitions you believe.

I mean it’s sad how we’ve gotten away from the Bible. We should be stoning women who commit adultery.
Of course we have honor killings for being raped in India and women being jailed for having miscarriages in El Salvador so there’s hope!!

Back in the good ole days if you rape an unbethrothed virgin you just gotta pay her some sheckels and it’s all good. Why can’t the liberals just leave us alone!?

Honestly, all I can say is...it's Timothy A. He's already proven himself to be tone-deaf on many topics over the years, particularly sex ed and abortion. That's to be expected given his particular flavor of the Christ cult and is easily written off, but now we see the ignorance of religious conservative men in full force.

You're an embarrassment to our shared first name, Timmy. Clearly you should've been born in 'Bama.

I'm glad to see we as residents of the US of A are all tolerant of people's beliefs even if we don't agree. In the past I have never tried to convert or convince anyone that my beliefs are better than anyone else's. I have simply stated what I believe and had some interesting but generally not condescending discussions with posters who want to discuss differences as a point of interest. I've been out of the café for many months and I see it has splintered into intolerance just as the country has. That is sad.
 
Re: DC Sexual Assault Thread: We needed one...

Seriously, what do we do?

First and foremost you don’t blame them. That will only force them deeper into hiding.

Second, you empower the victims. You take every allegation seriously. You investigate every allegation. You punish those found guilty. You remove them from power.

You make it an even more serious punishment to retaliate against the accusers.

I agree 100%.......but if the victims don't come forward, how does this happen?

Are you ****ing kidding me? They are. Slowly.

What point are you trying to make?

America is lost. We should have let the South go, and let Brigham Young have his polygamous Kingdom of Deseret.

You change the culture to one of support for the victims, not one of blame. We all need to be DGF's strong female manager that helped her come forward.

You're right that we need them to come forward to know what is happening, but we need to make it easier. The more support they know they have, the easier it will be for them, and the more likely we can put a stop to it. But, it starts with us, not them.
 
Re: DC Sexual Assault Thread: We needed one...

I mean, let's be serious.

We did.

Not really. Salt Lake City is the cheap man's Denver, with more illegal Mexicans, and worse pollution (but better skiing and In N' Out - win some, lose some). Even Ogden is changing, thanks to the call of winter tourist dollars.

Now when you get down into Provo and Manti, or up into Logan and Brigham City - yeah, that's serious Space Jesus country.
 
I'm the problem? Re-read my first post. I wrote go report it right away and put a stop to it. That is what you did, you and I are on the same page. If everyone reports it right away, it stops. More women need to be like you. I commend you. It's a culture change and it's going to be hard, but it has to happen.

She had witnesses......
