I don't think a lot of people knew just how disgusting these (mostly) men are, until they started spewing their rape comments. Also, it was like watching a video loop over & over again. One asshole would say something awful & the next week another asshole would say something awful & week after week, the assholes just couldn't stop themselves.

Hey assholes . . .
