    If my mother tongue is shaking the foundations of your state, it probably means you built your state on my land.

    Ah it’s all dying down now. I reckon apart from a few twitter campaigners nobody will bat an eyelid.
    A creepy 80 year old man who inappropriately flirted with a few women. Hardly crime of the century.
    50 people on twitter will be outraged and then a few hundred or thousand people will feign outrage hoping to get followers. A few people will make quality Morgan freeman sex jokes then everybody will move on.

    Tom Hanks is more likely to be a victim than perpetrator

    Does Weinstein have a white bronco per chance ? Someone else was meant to turn himself in and ended up messing up the 1994 NBA finals.

    Did he have a crash before while getting jiggy with his mistress and also was rumoured to be having a relationship with his adopted daughter or granddaughter?

    I just saw some of this on the news today. Why didn't these women come forward when it happened so countless others wouldn't be raped?

    What happened to the women who spoke out or refused advances is publicly available information. It was enough do discourage others from doing the same.

    They finally got him.

    I hope they throw the book at him. It must surely serve time for this. Even the best lawyer couldn't get him off on these charges.

    His alleged victims clearly don't have the same clout as Weinstein's.

    Weinstein was walking free for decades and no-one could touch him. Many of his victims could be considered wealthy and powerful although they were largely dependent on him for work.

    Nobody will bat an eyelid?

    It’s all over every news report and station.

    Numerous sponsorships lost, two public apologies and the possibility of a lifetime achievement award being revoked.

    It would seem the bigger world views these allegations as a bit more than “inappropriate flirting”.

    If there was no truth in the allegations , I’m sure CNN would be sued by Morgan Freeman’s legal machine, however, the response seems to be quite telling. Morgan Freeman is adamant there was no sexual favours for furthering careers offered, and I take that at face value.

    It’s a real shame for such a talented person.
