“God, you’re hot. Do you know that? Where do you go to school at?”
How do you possible make this worse? Ask them where they wll be later.
Not calling for violence but how does this not get you tarred and feather in the parking lot?
Haven't you noticed? pedophiles are in fashion now… they can even be presidents
If my kid was speaking in front of the school board and subjected to that kind of harassment I’d be in jail right now.
🔫always have been
Heard, one use to be a prince....
yeap… green prince instead of blue
the reason this keeps happening is because people refuse to call for violence against filth like this
He's a symptom. Violence against the idiots who can't help but say the quiet part out loud on camera won't stop the millions that do manage to keep the most blatant statements contained to men's spaces.
What we need is a culture of nuanced introspection and personal growth, where people like him can admit that they're pigs without it destroying their lives or moral standing, instead being a first step towards rehabilitation. Women and girls deserve to be kept safe from him and boys deserve better teachers, so he wouldn't be able to work in education until he has done a lot of personal growth, but violence is just scapegoating.
Of course if the state threatens violence unless you pay taxes that pay for people like him to endanger women, then you can engage in organized mutual self-defense. Hard to get to that culture of personal growth otherwise.
In the mean time, people are entitled to organised mutual self-defense against him, which might also include violence but probably won't.
There is more effective ways of dealing with it, outside of violence. I do like tar and feather though, just the right amount of violence
What are those more effective ways?
All the ones I can think of that don't involve violence don't seem to be working.
Thats because too many people sit on their ass waiting for other people to take care of it for them.
Coincidentally a lot of them are the same ones who call for violent action (and not all of them lean right).
These actions only work if a majority of citizens actually take them, not sit back and complain about how they dont work because things dont magically get fixed the instant a minority of people do it once.
Bingo.
my biggest complaint about the liberal/left is they will do anything but take charge. they seem to love sitting around and quarter backing and demanding someone else do something in their name... and a lot of them don't even vote, because 'what is the point'.
Here's why:
"Boys will be boys."
"He's not wrong, she is hot."
"Little slut deserves it for dressing like that."
"Why didn't I think of this? I wonder if he has any videos."
"Note to self: accept his 4th of July pool party invitation this year."
Pedophiles are praise worthy unless you are trying to make it big on the Internet, then you beat up random people who cant fight back and pretend they are this guy.
Everyone is willingly living a hypocritical lie these days.
Priorities, we got'em!
The only response to that is, "what the f*ck is the matter with you?"
