I said early on in that very thread that it was starting to get the feel of a witch hunt, and of course the snowflakes immediately jumped on me for it. Yet, here we are.

As CHL said above, now its come to any sort of communication that any body doesn't like has become considered harassment or misconduct. The whole thing has jumped the shark, and truly takes away from actual victims. That's the saddest part.

With Hehr who knows what's occurred as there seems to be a lot of smoke even if not a lot of fire at this point. That will cost him in some capacity without question. It's really to bad to as we have discussed before, his story and bravery are second to none, regardless of his politics., and if he is innocent inall this...it won't matter in the end.

It isn't just any sort of communication when every female staff brought into the annex is told immediately about the conduct and to be aware of it. So from day 1 on your job you are living in fear of when, not if, you are going to be harassed. That's not jumping the shark. This is women finally feeling empowered enough to bring these issues to light, instead of just "dealing with it" for years. No one deserves to be in a situation where they are made to feel uncomfortable because of obviously inappropriate actions or comments. This isn't hurting the victims, this is the victims finally finding their voice.
