There are always extreme takes. I guess I meant the overall majority. Anyone who outright discounts someone saying they've been assaulted, is just as wrong as those who have already convicted an accused. IMO.
Thanks for the clarification. I would assume the definition of rape falls within one of those 3 levels.
They’ve been in discussions since 2022 and it conveniently comes out as soon as this sexual assault thing happens…. come on
See my post earlier in this thread - presumption of innocence is everything and I’ll assume they are innocent until such time as they are found guilty. That’s a different discussion. You, on the other hand, appear to be on some MRA crusade to dismiss the complainant’s claims based on a faulty understanding of consent.
Right. If proven guilty, I wish them nothing positive, but also don't wish them any physical harm.
This is it. A lot of people seem to be missing the part where she clearly stated that she didn't "know" nor did she authorize the extra 7 to join them at the hotel room. She authorized 1, and that 1 took the consent to mean that he could call up almost half of team Canada to join in.
Looks like likely level 1, sexual assault in Canada.
It's not the players, it's the same player that called over his buddies to participate in the gang bang. It definitely looks like he knew he didn't get her consent before them getting there, so he thought if he could get her to say it on video after it happened that he would be safe.
I don't know if it's the overall majority, I'm not keeping count or doing a poll. The fact that anyone is doing it is already problematic; the fact that people are excusing what happened because "there's a video that says she gave consent" as if that's completely accurate, all the evidence we need to know and there's no other context needed, is really problematic.
Who the recording will help comes down to its tone and how it will interpreted by a jury-
The NHL messed up thinking that we’re dummies who will forget about rape accusations because they’re thinking about over-expansion. If anything, they connected the two. I’ll aways think of the Utah expansion as a pathetic ploy to avoid the discussion of rape.
Couldn't agree more. The wonder of the Grilled Cheese™ is that it's simply a cheese sandwich that's grilled.
It's very similar the Duke team had a party and hired a stripper and later 3 players were accused of sexual assault. 2018 team Canada had a party and invited women and who knows what happened maybe nothing or maybe alot. The fantastic lies proved that the stripper lied and the same maybe happened here too. I don't know what happened, but they're innocent until proven guilty.
Maybe because they were given until Friday Feb 2 to report, we have no idea really.
Or
Legal analyst mentioned under these types of cases 2 weeks is average for a reporting deadline. Travel, retaining counsel, personal arrangements, etc. It is fair to give them the anonymity until they are officially booked and given court directives. The perp walk into the police station will be a media zoo.
I didn’t know you were allowed to say shit like this and it be ok. However saying anything about anyone else would be racist homophobic bigot etc.
