    Odds just went down even further of him in the next few years or so being welcomed back like Mel Gibson. He didn't get the memo that your supposed to go into hiding afterwards.

    No idea. I don't watch it, but if so, another life imitating art, yeah?

    What did l just read?? :oops:

    Oddly, Rose tweeted a while ago she was offered one million $'s for her silence...
    now l believe it.

    This is crazy-

    "...Two private investigators from Black Cube, using false identities, met with the actress Rose McGowan, who eventually publicly accused Weinstein of rape, to extract information from her. One of the investigators pretended to be a women’s-rights advocate and secretly recorded at least four meetings with McGowan. The same operative, using a different false identity and implying that she had an allegation against Weinstein, met twice with a journalist to find out which women were talking to the press. In other cases, journalists directed by Weinstein or the private investigators interviewed women and reported back the details..."

    Disgraceful.

    Speaking of another former CW star I could see being accused in the future is Ian Somerhalder from "The Vampire Diaries". There's 1 dude always telling me about rumors about Ian for years about how he's a creep, always hitting on females on set.

    The John Singleton experience sounded odd but didn't he date Janet Jackson or am l wrong. I've always known him to be hereto.
    Sexual harrassment is a staple in a woman's life experience, no question. It's everywhere. We put up with A L O T. A lot we let slide.
    It's why l personally speak out so strongly about rape/sexual assault because the violation is so abhorrent in nature, it must never be minimized.

    Oh yeah? Then l'm positive there are a billion Democrat D.A's who will arrest him before l finish this post. Let me know when it breaks.

    There is pending legal action against Trump regarding his accused sexual assult, https://www.vox.com/identities/2017...rvos-donald-trump-defamation-lawsuit-subpoena

    "Summer Zervos, a former contestant on The Apprentice, made her allegations against then-candidate Trump last October. When he denied them, saying that the women who had come forward to accuse him of misconduct were all lying, Zervos sued him for defamation."

    Your comment reminded me of an expressed 'belief' l keep reading online...that "men are homosexual and women bi-sexual". As in, a gay women will at some point, enjoy or seek the D, whereas a gay man has no desire for the V.

    If you scroll up this page, Coli and I already discussed this. He has not been arraigned nor charged with any sexual assault. He's being sued civily for defamation.

    "If the suit goes forward, it could cause serious problems for Trump. As Rios notes, if the New York court decides it can hear Zervos’s case, that would open the door for others to sue the president in state court. The case could also bring to light any campaign communications that may exist regarding the many women who have publicly accused Trump of harassment or assault, and perhaps even women who have not made public accusations yet."

    Because the President has immunity while in office, suing him civilly is the legal tactic they are using to hopefully set up pending criminal charges in the future.

    She made her harrassment allegations that in 2007, he kissed her on her lips when he greeted her, and later thrusted his covered genitals towards her - all prior to him winning the Presidency.

    If her allegations were criminal, why when she recently came forward, was he not arrested then?
    Zervos said that "Trump was sexually suggestive during their meeting".
    Ok, then why didn't she then try to file a "sexual assault" complaint during his campaign when he'd have had no immunity, if she felt his behavior was criminal. This isn't the 70's. (She still can today if she wanted)

    Furthermore, in October 2016, the Trump Presidental campaign released an email by Zervos, sent in April 2016, in which she expressed her wish to “reconnect” with Trump.

    So we can follow her defamation suit if the court approves it. But that's likely it.

    Dont be so sure about that, according to her, she reached out in that email to reconnect, in hopes of getting Trump to admit what he had done. As to why criminal charges have not been filed, look at Weinstein, Cosby, Affleck, and numerous others, in many cases criminal charges have not been filed at all, or took a long time to file. As you have stated many times here, there are numerous reasons why women do not pursue criminal sexual assault charges against powerful men who can damage their career. Not to mention such charges are VERY hard to prove in a court of law because often times it comes down to a "he said - she said" scenario, without much hard evidence.

    Lastly, from a legal standpoint mere allegations are usually not enough to get someone arrested. You or I could make allegations about someone famous tomorrow if we like, it does not mean they will be arrested.
