Yep. Contrary to what you may think, my opinion that it would be funny doesn't actually matter. He's not more likely to get raped, less likely to get justice if such a thing happened or even likely to know I ever had an opinion about him. Bad people deserve bad things to happen to them. I'll never punish anyone for anything, but I'll find amusement in what I damn well please.
Quote:Is sexual assault the same as rape?
No. I don't understand why that's relevant. He's accused of rape.
Quote:Is making inappropriate comments sexual assault? If so, Ive been sexuallu assaulted. Is being sexually assaulted the same as being raped? Are inappropriate comments made at the water cooler the same as being held down in an alleyway or a bedroom or a basement while someone forces themselves inside of you?
No, and I never said they were. This is all irrelevant.
Quote:Im not saying Id be surprised if trump was guilty of this. In fact, with so many accusers, im inclined to agree he probably is a fucking creep, at the very least. But to just assume that hes a rapist and say youd be happy if he was raped insane. And its bizarre that youre trying to defend your comments.
Why is it bizarre for me to defend my own comments? I'm perfectly fine being the kind of person who doesn't care about rapists. I'm cool with that. Rapist hit by car? I might laugh. Child predator killed and dumped in an alley? Could illicit a clap from me. You're mistaken if you think I'll ever feel bad for bad people. I simply don't. Of course, it's much more nuanced than did bad thing=bad person, but in the case of repeat offenders of sexual crimes, I'm cool with my feelings on it. You can judge me all you want. I don't care about that, either.
All of that said, I've already pointed out that I don't think anyone should hurt him, get away with hurting him or be punished any less than he deserves to be punished himself. My ideal outcome for situations where anyone is assaulted is that the person be tried, found guilty and given a fair amount of time in prison. I've simply said I might be less than upset if the person being hurt has themselves hurt others. It's not a controversial opinion. I don't support corporal punishment. I just don't give a shit about him or anyone like him.
