well, he has a tough road ahead of him.
praying for his wife and children and praying for him. i don’t like what he is accused of doing, but for someone to fall from such a high social and professional
position and be so respected must be hard to face up to. it will be hard for his
family.

Rose McGowan was on Megan Kelly this
morning. i guess she has quit acting to
be an activist. she didn’t come across well i don’t think. i believe Harvey Weinstein abused the casting couch, but i think she needs some counseling to help her heal from her wounds - if she wants to be more effective.

He certainly did that. And that’s bad enough.
But this is more – he was arrested and charged with rape. He had to surrender his passport and post bail of $1 million.
Harvey may be doing some hard time in the near future, no matter how good his lawyers are.

So could Bill Cosby. However, this video is worth checking out.

If you were to ask Harvey Weinstein and QJ Tarantino about the Duke case, they’d likely say given their lectures about White Privileged men that the Duke players are guilty of raping the Black woman and they’d likely think the Duke players should be punished without a jury trial and it was later proven the woman lied and the men were innocent.
Harvey Weinstein should have jury trial, though given the theme of his movies, he likely does not think White people accused of crimes against nonWhites should get a chance to plead case. Harvey Weinstein is an arrogant, haughty snob and he is acquaintances with Pres. DJ Trump-Pres. DJ Trump is also an arrogant, haughty snob. Incidentally, I am not a member of any political party. there are many who do not sympathize with Harvey Weinstein losing contracts because of the sexual harassment accusations and given the attitude of some of Harvey Weinstein’s movies of revenge without a chance to plead case, it’s easy to not sympathize with him, regardless of whether he is innocent or guilty.

Whether Harvey Weinstein committed sexual harassment (which incidentally is a Federal Crime-Civil Rights Violation though it almost always involves lawsuits and sometimes State/Federal prosecutions for sex abuse) depends on, what did he do?
Employers having sexual relations with employees is not per se illegal, though it is not recommended, because relationship goes bad, then the problems can come to the workplace, and in worst cases you get domestic violence (assault and battery), stalking and even murder. But employers dating their employees per se is not illegal-people sometimes find their future mates in the workplace and college. And you have family businesses which are run by husband, wife and their kids.
With Harvey Weinstein, if he used criminal threats and or force to get sex from the actresses, then he would be guilty of rape and sex abuse. If Harvey Weinstein told the women that if they did not have sex with him, that he would then fire them, refuse to hire them (though they were qualified for job) and if he told the women that if they did not have sex with him, then he would refuse to promote them, then he would be guilty of sexual harassment. If Harvey Weinstein repeatedly asked his actresses out on dates after they refused, then that could be harassment as repeatedly asking a person for dates and stalking them is illegal.
With sexual harassment, they have to be judged individuallye. If Harvey Weinstein had an affair with the actresses, then it would be legal. If the actresses had offered themselves sexually to Harvey Weinstein with the hope Harvey Weinstein would give them a raise or the job, then Harvey Weinstein did not commit sexual harassment though you can conclude he committed bribing and corruption as did the women by offering him a bribe. If Harvey Weinstein offered a woman a raise by saying that if she has sex with him, then he’d give them more money than what is in the contract, then Harvey Weinstein would be guilty of the business crimes bribing and corruption, but not sexual harassment.
A similar eg. would be let’s say a woman needs her ac repaired which costs alot and when the ac repairman comes to her house, she asks the repairman if he can have sex with her instead of pay the fee and the repairman has sex with her. In this case sexual harassment did not happen but bribing crime did. If the repairman tells the woman that if she has sex with him, he’ll repair it for free, while it would not be sexual harassment, it could be a business crime such as bribing. Now if the repairman tells the woman that either she has sex with him or he won’t repair the ac, then it would be sexual harassment.
regardless of whether Harvey Weinstein is innocent or guilty of sexual harassment, it’s easy to not sympathize with him losing money and having others alienate him, given how he and QJ Tarantino have said/implied in their discussions about privileged White men that if you’re White and commit a crime against an African American or are even accused of a crime against an African American (or other nonWhite), that it’s punishment (even execution) with no jury trial to decide case.
