Now there could be one of those DUN-DUN-DUUUN Moments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a HUGE difference between " rape" and " unwanted advances". One is clear and unambiguous as an act of sexual abuse. In essence, its a heinous act of physical violence. A crime of supreme magnitude. The other.. " unwanted advances ".. can be bit more in the grey area. Flirtations can even be deemed " unwanted advances " by the recipient of the flirtations. I suppose if the attempt at flirtation by the recipient is deemed " unwanted ", it clearly needs to stop and immediately on the part of the flirter. But in any event, lets not blur the lines between " rape " and " unwanted advances " as that does not advance anything. " Rape " has been " rape " since the dawn of times. There has never been a " bluring of the lines " when it comes to " rape ", no matter the timeline in history. I don't think this is what you meant to say, but your words utilized here perhaps let you down a little bit... thats possible.

BigW Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I can say in the case I know about "unwanted advances", the expectations of what was desired as the outcome were quite clear. *sighs and shakes head, not at anyone here but at the fact a friend was put through that* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The situation's been that bad that they prolly should have had them in hand awhile ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garfield Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) I'm hearing that DCI may have developed the power to exert a backbone in this specific case. Sounds like the mutineers have taken control of the Bounty, and DCI, aka: The Crown In Far Away Places, is siding with the mutineers. I see a long plank out over the side and only one direction for the existing board to walk. Hoping something is announced very soon, and that DCI has teeth to speak for all corps. Hoping...

The statement says "in this matter" not they are no longer representing GH. I don't know what the relationship is/was between GH and this lawyer. It could be that this lawyer represented GH ,but is not an expert in these types of legal matters and was just a "place holder" till he could hire one. I know this happens all the time in my business ,when we deal with land use applications for large corporations. Corporate attorneys will handle some initial "leg work",but then the company will hire an outside attorney,who is an expert in land use, to do the heavy lifting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
