    As has just been explained to you frank, this is standard practice in developed countries, not only the US but across the globe. In developing countries, it's much more likely nothing will be done wrt those in positions of power.

    That was a good one though. Third world.

    I'm not lying to you Baden. Presumption of innocence pervades here. To Kill a Mockingbird, Twelve Angry Men, etc. They drill this stuff into school kids. Did you not get that sort of thing as a child?

    I'm all for that frank. But you're conflating criminal and social penalties. In the case of social penalties, it doesn't pervade or Weinstein would still have his job. That's just reality.

    I would try to explain something to you about Weinstein, but I'm pretty sure I'd be wasting my time. Adios!

    It's my time you'd be wasting. Again.
