57. I'd love to see that as much as the next guy, but ...

I'm (unfortunately) not entirely sure that a 'case' that's 50 years after the fact ... of a 26-27 year old dude in Hollywood asking a 16 year old girl (who's age he may or may not have known) ... to 'kiss' his privates ... has ANY chance of actually 'going somewhere' ...

I'm not even sure that, circa, 1967, it was actually illegal for someone of that age to 'engage' with a 16 year old ... let alone just 'ask'. Would depend on the state in which it occurred, and it's statute of limitations.

It IS, of course, gratifying to ponder this scum of a human being actually having to spend his final years BOTH in a state of disgrace, and behind bars on top of it ... but barring evidence emerging of more egregious conduct than what has been alleged in the past few days ... I'm prepared to settle for just seeing him lose ALL his ill-gotten gains to lawsuits by the women he's humiliated and/or abused in the past, fired from Fox, disowned by the Murdoch family, and utterly disgraced publicly, never to rear his disgusting head into public view again.

Hoping for PRISON, though ... over a 50 year old claim that the pig asked for a hummer from a 16 year old he may or may not have known was 16 ... that is probably asking a bit much from the Karma Gods, that's all I'm sayin' ...

A complete public humiliation, along with losing his job and his money ... is a bit more realistic of an expectation. Just sayin' ...

PLEASE let it happen, O Lord!

Here is a counterpoint you may not have considered Dreamer Tatum Jul 2016 #13

Several women say they were indeed badly harassed. How is that harrasment calimary's fault? emulatorloo Jul 2016 #14

I was crystal clear nt Dreamer Tatum Jul 2016 #20

Ok. I still don't follow your logic that calimary's post caused Ailes to sexually harass women. emulatorloo Jul 2016 #28

That isn't my logic at all. Dreamer Tatum Jul 2016 #36

Understand now. Thanks. emulatorloo Jul 2016 #42
