Al Franken is latest to be accused of sexual assault

[LadyForCamus]

I was trying to be funny is at least a new excuse for sexual assault.

I give a little credit to Louis CK. He seems to be the only one who said yes, I did it, it hurt those women, I'm wrong.

Yeah, and he actually made attempts to make things right with the women on his own initiative before the story came out, even though he fully admits that there might be nothing he could do to make it up to the women.

That being said, in regards to the OP: Franken is clearly a creepo-scumbag and he should get out.

He did?  Can you link that from somewhere?  I would be interested.

Personally, I didn't find his apology letter particularly sincere.  It felt more like he was checking all of the perfunctory boxes in hopes of being given a second chance in the public eye at some point down the road.  The word, "manipulative" comes to mind.  It always irritates me when these guys talk about how horribly guilty they feel about what they did.  Seems they only start to feel the guilt once they get caught.  C.K. was asked about the rumors a few months ago, and he flat out denied them.  I guess it's easy to ignore all that painful remorse when you're on top of world, with everything to lose?

Did he deny It? I remember him being asked about it before and saying something to the effect of "nobody is perfect " might be a lame response still, but not exactly a denial.

I'm pretty sure he was on record denying it.  Perhaps I'm wrong?

If I may ask, what would a 'sincere' apology look like?

One with fewer cliches, and perhaps an actual apology, lol.  He never even wrote the words, "I'm sorry."

If I may ask, what would a 'sincere' apology look like?

One you make before you're caught.

This right here.  ^

If every man who ever copped a feel is a criminal then we all belong in jail.

Seriously, Min?  "Copping a feel" is sexual assault.
