"ME, TOO." I have been harassed, groped, and raped. [View all]

I have been harassed in the past, my boobs grabbed (which I would call groping), and there was a rape years ago.

As for Franken...are you fuckin' KIDDIN' ME? "He put his hand on my waist & grabbed flesh" is what an "accuser" calls groping? Are you f'in kiddin' me?

"He tried to kiss me!" ARE YOU F'IN KIDDIN' ME? (BTW, he says this is categorically untrue...her story is preposterous.)

Some women may need to read storie of REAL harassment, groping, and rape, to understand what it is. Watch the television accounts of Roy Moore's accusers.

Most of these women accusing Franken are anonymous. I can't see their televised allegations, and neither can you. We don't even know who they are. I wouldn't have believed Cosby's accusers if they were anonymous and said "He tried to kiss me" and that's it.

This is a shark frenzy. The sharks are going bananas eating their own, in the frenzy of the blood-filled waters, without regard to truth or logic or facts. One wonders why. Why throw their lion in the water to be eaten? Jealousy? Maybe so. The Senate is a club. It's possible that the one who shone during the hearings and became the most popular Senator in the nation...his name was bandied about as a possible Presidential candidate. It's very plausible there's some jealousy there, and some do not want interference with their chosen one(s) for the next Presidential election. Just trying to guess at this nonsensical approach.
