Man Who Assaulted Terry Crews Won't Face Charges

Damn

Wasn't it just a butt grab/slap? It's definitely inappropriate and that guy should be reprimanded, but charged with sexual assault? Lmao please.

The guy grabbed his crotch, not his butt.

can you not?

He grabbed his junk. I don’t think you can press charges against someone for slapping your ass, can you?

Uh

STAAWWP

the fuck?

It was a crotch grab but I can’t help but wonder if you’d be this blasé if it were the woman in your icon 🤔

wtf is this comment, how can you apply the word "just" to someone touching anyone w/o consent

Why are so many members really showing their asses ever since Brenden left ?

Were they being protected by the old regime and now they are showing their true selves ??

Brenden loved trolls, so I doubt the worst people were holding back when he was here. They knew they were safe no matter what they did as long as he was in charge.

A lot of these people have always been awful.

I honestly see it as:

Two ideological groups (gay men and WOC) shared the space, and Brendan protected trollish behaviour. WOC were on the back-foot.

Gay men are men, and the #metoo have most men on the back-foot re: what constitutes sexual assault. Women share their stories and gain a stronger collective voice.

Brendan retires like the old man he is, women move into position of community moderators.

With #metoo and the (fair) repudiation of #YesAllMen casues the male members of this community to feel a loss of status. Both here online and in the wider social conversation.

Men like the status quo, but it's being (rightfully) challenged. Thus the male members here prove, yet again, that #MenAreWeak and start to get sloppy and show their un/conscious biases more freely and practice misogyny to troll the community, because they've gone down a rung and they feel pouty. While women rise a rung on the ladder.

gross

you need to reread your sources

I hope you're never in this situation, where someone says this shit to you.

the guy grabbed Terry's genitals and squeezed, while looking him in the eye and making a slobbering/slavering facial expression and licking his lips.

so shocked

That is a really short statute of limitations. Didn't he go public with it only a year after it happened?

That's really too bad. This guy isn't facing any consequences at all - he didn't even lose his job. Life is so fucking unfair.

Of course. Ugh. Poor Terry.

of course

literally what is the point of the statute of limitations?? it only seems to protect the guilty

They believe him but apparently grabbing his crotch is a misdemeanor which is reason for only 1 yr statute of limitations. More egregious assault or rape is felony so victim has longer to come forward.

Still it sucks that this guy has faced no repercussions and that Crew was bullied by a lot of people to let it go.

poor terry. i have no idea why statute of limitations are so limiting when we've seen, over and over again, how long it takes survivors to come forward about the abuse they've faced.
