I’m under no legal obligation either to deny the allegations until proven. And in this case I choice to believe the victims. And I will keep calling them victims until proven otherwise.
- robertlagrant 3y agoI don't understand this comment, sorry. Who's talking about your legal obligations? I'm talking about what you know vs what you assume.
- runarberg 3y agoYou are saying it is wrong of me to call the victims, victims, and should instead call them ‘accusers’. I’m saying I am under no legal obligations to do so. I believe their stories and I believe they are victims, so I am allowed to call them victims. Now I think there might be slander to call the accused something like an abuser, so I don’t do that (yet). However there is no slander laws which disallow me from using words which indicate that I believe the victims, so I’m not calling them ‘accusers’, I call them victims, because that is what I believe they are.
- robertlagrant 3y agoOf course you're allowed - there's no parent enforcing things and you aren't a child, and shouldn't be thinking that way. But this is a strange response: "It's not illegal for me to say this!" Would you accept that as a response from a flat earther if you challenged something they stated as fact?
