Loathsome, beady-eyed little inchworm Jeff Sessions: "I don't characterize that as sexual assault"



http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/senator-jeff-sessions-trump-grabbing-women-not-sexual-assault

“But beyond the language, would you characterize the behavior described in that (video) as sexual assault if that behavior actually took place?” the Weekly Standard asked.

“I don't characterize that as sexual assault,” Sessions replied. ”I think that's a stretch. I don't know what he meant—“

“So if you grab a woman by the genitals, that's not sexual assault?” the Weekly Standard pressed.

“I don't know. It's not clear that he—how that would occur.”

Even then, like most Republicans, Sessions would likely dismiss any charge of sexual assault as simply rough sex that the woman wanted.

"How would that occur?" Dude, c'mere and I'll be happy to use my own experiences to demonstrate.

Let someone grab my wife or daughter by the "pussy" and I'll show you another form of assault.

LAY HANDS OFF HER BODY!! At no point in time does anyone have ANY RIGHT to touch another person in even the slightest sexual way without FULL CONSENT.

You are a sick, twisted sadistic fuck if you conduct yourself in such a way and you're also a sick fuck if you justify it. Jeff Sessions is an embarrassment to us men and I'd like him removed from our group.
