Topic | Kevin Spacey exposed as a pedophile |

I think part of what we have to do as a society to overcome this issue is to accept that it happens. There is no excusing it, ever. But when we act like it doesn't exist or that anyone that ever makes a mistake like this is a demon and should have their life torn to shreds, we create an environment where people go to great lengths to cover up the crime and the actual victims go years or decades before people believe them or they gather the courage to speak out and face the consequences. I don't know if there is even a solution. As awful as it sounds I think it my be best if our legal system created some kind of spectrum of punishment based on the severity of sexual harassment and crimes. Social media is so reactionary and I just don't think it makes sense to treat someone that drunkenly made a move on a teenager(which don' get me wrong, is totally fucked up) like they are on the same level as a child predator or violent rapist. If I offend anyone with my thoughts then I do apologize, I am often wrong and certainly don't know everything so feel free to correct me. --- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mead "I'm Mary Poppins ya'll!" ...
