candukid If they let him do it, it's not assault. If they resist, then it's assault. You'd think with a title of "Reading Comprehension" you'd do better than that.
Reading Comprehension
puttnfool If so, bullying is a made up issue to create victims. When I was growing up, kids (and I'd presume adults, too) weren't taught to lie down and be a victim. If someone was messin' with you, you either ignored it because it wasn't worth your time or you did what needed to be done to stop it.
Are you serious? What an asinine statement.
That statement in itself just goes to show the world ho ignorant you really are.
candukid It's ok. We've learned that you Canucks don't like to defend yourselves.
I'm having a hard time understanding why the tables apparently turned on the Clintons and Putin. I'll take them at their word they had no influence on the approval of Uranium One and one of the reasons it was approved was to rebuild our relationship with Russia.
Former President Bill Clinton was invited to Russia to give a speech and received $500,000 and also met briefly with Putin. Hilary, as SOS, also visited Putin after the uranium deal was approved and it wasn't too long after Bill had been there. During that visit, Hilary announced we were removing some of the economic sanctions in place against Russia as another big olive branch. The final details of the Uranium One sale were completed in 2013.
So, with everything going Putin's way with the Clintons as documented as late as 2013, what happened that Putin suddenly was supporting Trump in the presidential election in 2016, as alleged and being investigated?
mikeintopeka I'll take them at their word they had no influence...
I'm hoping that's sarcasm because I had some stuff earlier today that's worth the same as a Clinton's word, but I flushed it down the toilet.
Spuzz Complaining does nothing at all.
Exactly! Correct!
LBlack14 please, don't judge all Canadians based on him either.
Thanks, that's a great request. Let's see if it gets honored? So, I simply take that as your reply to me that you're not always in favor of broad-brush generalizations.
candukid ... and you'd lose.
Assault is unwanted touching. Resisting has nothing to do with it. So in your weird little world if a women is raped and does not resist then you consider that consensual?
Whether it be sexual harassment or sexual assault it's all about power over a woman. Just because a woman doesn't report / complain about sexual harassment, sexual assault or rape doesn't mean she consented to it. Get real.
I would think all of you would know that the basis (Christopher Steele dossier) for the Russian investigation has been reported by the Washington Post to be nothing but total fabrication solicited and paid for by the DNC and Clinton Foundation. Millions of dollars were paid for this fabrication. Some Democrats are seeking to say that some of the material was confirmed by the FBI, but don't disclosed that a key FBI information source was Christopher Steele. The FBI had been conned into hiring Christopher Steele. They removed him from their payroll when it became public knowledge Christopher Steel was on their payroll.
Quote from CNN (CNN) "The long probe into Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election took another turn this week when it was revealed that Hillary Clinton's campaign helped fund the creation of the controversial Trump dossier."
Sneakylong Assault is unwanted touching.
Exactly. If someone doesn't want you to do something, then they stop you. If someone touches me and I don't want them to, I remove their hand (or whichever appendage is touching me) from my body. If I like it, then I don't remove it. Now, if the "victim" is unconscious or otherwise unable to consent, we have a completely different case. I don't think that's the situation here.

We'll be divided as long as the right wingers live in their delusional parallel universe of Fox News, Breitbart, and right wing radio. Fox News is dredging up this old debunked Russian uranium story as a diversion tactic. They bring up another shiny object and the Republican congress start an investigation in order to divert attention from the real story. And then Fox reports on the phony investigation.
Listening to their bullshit you'd think Hillary, Obama and Holder colluded with Russia to get Trump elected. 
You failed to mention that it was a Republican (working for another candidate) that originally hired Steele to do opposition research. But when Trump won the nomination they dropped it. The law firm affiliated with the DNC and Clinton campaign then picked it up and paid Steele to keep investigating.
What the Republican campaign and subsequently DNC did isn't illegal. Big difference. Also, it's funny that Trumpers aren't interested if what's in the dossier is true or not (and much of it has been proven true). No, they just want to know who paid for it.
Sneakylong So, tell us. How does Larry define sexual assault? BTW, who is Larry again?

Look a little harder. First Google and I got this.
"In tort law, assault and battery are intentional torts that involve “unwanted touching.” Originally, assault and battery were two separate claims: assault involved making someone afraid they were about to suffer an unwanted touch, while battery involved actually touching them. Some U.S. states still separate the two torts, while others have lumped them together into one cause of action."
Unwanted kissing and groping would be considered sexual assault.
