I consider John keys actions to be sexual assault, especially so since he made the "tantalising" remark. I would expect your average Joe on the street to be charged with assault after doing this. John Key should definitely be, since he has so much more power than you average Joe. By power, I mean the imposing fact that he is pm and the fact that he has 4 goons with him. I predict that no one will give a gently caress passed tomorrow, his actions will be written off as just innocent playfulness by the louder probably old white male members of society.

I mean more if getting police involved/charges laid is/was the intention, she should have and probably would have done that. She seems like she's more interested in getting him rightfully called out for being a dick.

Butt Wizard posted:I mean more if getting police involved/charges laid is/was the intention, she should have and probably would have done that. The manner in which police are alerted to a crime is utterly irrelevant to the discussion, and should not change their response. I expect him to be at least questioned, if not arrested. I also expect to be disappointed because that won't happen. Edit: also, why is the headline " PM sorry for pulling woman's hair"? That isn't the story, talk about burying the lead. The headline should be "pm assaults waitress". The former headline implies a sort of finality. klen dool fucked around with this message at 02:26 on Apr 22, 2015 |

quote:When I realised she took offence by that I just sort of immediately went back, gave her some wine, apologised and said I was terribly sorry quote:The main media have done their part and blown it up beyond all proportion, stumbling over each other not to be left behind on this stellar piece of political and media history. Where are they when John Key is allowing people who have actually broken the law to continue under his watch? Why the silence over wife beaters? Sex crimes? Financial cover-ups? The media are happy enough to go with hair pulling, but they remain silent over things that are truly serious.

BARONS CYBER SKULL posted:She was probably loving terrified of talking to anyone with governmental ties with what has "leaked" about "problem people" before and losing her job/worse. I'd say it's more that she calculated the likelihood of the police doing anything at all about this and decided that public outcry had more chance of succeeding than an abortive investigation that would be squashed before it even started, safely filing the whole thing away in the case-closed cupboard until after the next election. Butt Wizard posted:It won't get rid of him now but it may cause some people in the party to question whether he'll have the same mass appeal in 2017. I think you're being hysterically optimistic but I want you to be right the way I want world peace to happen. Pararoid posted:Nah, Facebook comments are coming down pretty strongly in favor of "PC gone mad", and we all know that's where most news outlets gauge public opinion now. This would make me genuinely angry if I had the energy to care anymore. There's just no point in getting upset - nothing ever changes, people here will literally jump off a bridge if JK told them to and re-elect him later. If I, someone who hasn't really experienced the shittyness of our government first-hand, feel a total and utter hopelessness with regard to changing things then people who have actually been impacted don't stand a chance.
