quote: ORIGINAL: Soulhuntre quote: ORIGINAL: FTopinMichigan I tend to see those that oppose it, are more than likely the ones that fear their antics to be exposed. They fear they can't keep their stories straight if telling it to more than one woman. Ah yes, and if I oppose no warrent searches I must be a terrorist right? FTopinMichigan: That is a very aggressive statement. What's more frightening thing is the accusatory tone, coming from a stranger out to strangers...placed on the 'net, as opinion, but some could take it as fact. Thats the #1 problem with that list. 2 Another is it could be considered a lynching. Hang a man, without a trial. What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty? 3 How about Salem Witch trials? Little girl's games, manipulations, superstition, fear of the unknown. Women, many wise individuals, victimized. Who will suffer in the end? 4 Blacklisting, McCarthyism. Even Scarlett Letter. Shall the said "bad man" wear a badge of dishonor in public forever? 5 The list could also be potentially open to legal implications. Slander, libel. An official list, would need proven, documented proof of evidence. Anyone, not only public figures, can sue, not only the defendant (who would be the woman) , the host of the list, +++ if the accusation was proven false.. but had caused, or even could cause irrepairable harm, damage to an individual's rights, reputation, ... Could go on and on. But, please, this is a message board, not .. I don't know, anybody ever saw the film "12 Angry Men"? Young Henry Fonda... ? This is a debate yes... rambling now...sorry. All I can say is " the implications of such lists are deep. The List. I respect the idea. Nice idea. I reject the notion that it will work. Based on legal, political.. historical experience consideration of freedom. Sigh.. grr pain in the butt to write all that. Hope it clarified something for anyone. Best to all... really
