Constituent says Mayor Filner sexually harassed her at monthly meet and greet event
I like Filner's policies as much as any good liberal, but do we really think it's worth it to shame women and call them liars for coming forward? If you think Filner deserves the benefit of the doubt and due process, fine. But let's give a little consideration and benefit of the doubt to the women he allegedly abused. The shitty comments (and poor reading comprehension, from what I can gather) in this string of posts are victim-blaming at their worst. Are you trying to scare more women away from coming forward? A good friend of mine had a very similar (but much more humiliating) encounter with Filner, and this is EXACTLY why she hasn't come forward. She knows she'll be attacked. But now she's determined to do it because she sees him lying. He shouldn't get a pass on treating women like shit because he has good progressive policies. After all, treating women with respect IS a good progressive value -- one we're winning elections on.— July 14, 2013 10:38 p.m.
