  1. That’s sad. So if i got robbed, I have to act like a rob victim or the police will dismiss my report? People actually care more about acting than real crime.

  2. Why msnbc serpent brainwashing operatives use their own serpent moles to instigate more atrocity

  3. Unrelated channel question – does anyone think Mourning Joe will stop being sad about Trump’s win?

    1. Trumpocalypse – I live in Cali and I can tell you that most independents laugh at liberals more than they laugh at trump.

    2. @Crimdor : That’s not surprising. The more likely response to Trump is disbelief or anger that he is so evil, disrespectful of the country, the Constitution, the environment, and countless other things.

  4. These women are willing to sacrifice their lives to defend this country. Why is no one willing to defend them?

  5. How about a man telling the police that a woman sexually abused him, and that man then gets charge with making a false report to the police. Yeah that’s me.

    1. That sucks 🙁
      I don’t mean to sound combative in any way towards your case, but out of my own curiosity, did you fight back?
      You obviously don’t have to go into detail and I’m sorry if I’m dredging up bad memories for you.

    2. Brian Vachon – I am fighting?
      Like currently?
      I didn’t mean like fighting the case, I mean when you were assaulted, did you physically fight back?

  6. What the r@pists mean – by saying, “She didn’t act like a r@pe victim” – is that the RapePorn, that those r@pists pass around, trains them to want to SEE EVEN MORE PAIN.

  7. Here’s the culture…men are above women, no doesn’t mean no, men are logical, men are credible, men have no control over their impulses and it’s the woman’s fault…

  8. I can’t believe we would allow this to happen in our military. Yet we have the audacity to talk about how other governments treat women…something to ponder 🤔

  9. Thank the Me Too movement. Which has now diminished real sexual assault victims. Good freaking job!

  10. Hi Steph🐞.👋.
    Exceptional reporting, Steph.👍☺👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏.
    Keep on digging, Steph.👍.
    👉👉Patience democrats, patience.👍.

  11. it’s been a new kind of army for quite some time now they no longer teach honor, respect they teach hate and violence i’m an old vet i see the difference i’m not saying they are not the best fighters in the world i’m just saying they changed the training these young men receive
