"I was mortified. It’s one of the most traumatizing things I’ve ever been through," state Sen. Julie Slama said in a radio interview.

“As I was ... walking to my table, I felt a hand reach up my skirt, up my dress and the hand was Charles Herbster’s,” Slama said in an interview on News Radio KFAB in Omaha. “I was in shock. I was mortified. It’s one of the most traumatizing things I’ve ever been through.”​

​

Slama added: “I watched as five minutes later he grabbed the buttocks of another young woman. ... This was witnessed by several people at the event.”​

​

All 13 female state senators in the Nebraska legislature, including five Republicans, issued a statement Thursday condemning the “highly credible, corroborated allegations.”​

Several years later, right on cue for the elections. I would have made a big scene right there and then, caused enough ruckus the dude wouldn't have had the chance to grab another woman or even think about running for Gov.
But ok, nice timing.

So weird how you'll criticize the timing before you'll criticize the man being a sex offender.

Ok then.

I was thinking the same, though. If some jerk did that to me, whatever glass of liquid was handy on his table would have gone straight into his lap. And then a loud chewing out everyone could hear.

Calling him a sex offender is a bit much--he's a common ordinary pig.

Reaching your hand up a woman's skirt is sexual assault and therefore makes you a sex offender.

So is looking at a girl's chi chis, yet they are out in the open. The point is, the guy should have been dealt with a long time ago.

Yeah well he wasn't. If you're not aware of this general trend of men in positions of wealth and power getting away with this stuff, I don't know what to tell you. Can I note that you, allegedly a woman yourself, still haven't actually criticized him.

Say something when and where it happens, instead of making an entry in your diary to be used at a more convenient moment. My fellow female humans are worth it.

Still no criticism of man.

Women don't refer to themselves as "female humans." That's something incel men say.

Right there and then should have been a clue. C'mon, please.

This is not an atypical reaction to those who have experienced sexual assault. The peanut gallery is so certain about how they would have responded.

Have you ever been it such situation?

I know how I would have responded because I got booted out of a bar for it once. There wasn't a 'huge power differential,' as she put it, but unless he was directly paying my salary, I don't think it would have stopped me. I was taught we all put our pants on the same way. And of course, there was the gin and tonics....

Mary, what did you do?

I defended my honor with a good hard slap on the face. The bouncer should have thrown HIM out, Lou.

Maybe no one paid attention until they needed dirt on an opponent.

It is sexual assault.

“Sexual assaults affect millions of Americans annually. The term encompasses various actions that involve behavior or contact toward another person without their consent. The actions are defined by state law and can therefore differ by jurisdiction. However, some common examples of sexual assault include:

• Fondling, kissing, or making unwanted bodily contact;
• Forcing another person to perform or receive oral sex;
• Forcing a tongue, mouth, finger, penis, or an object on another person's anus, penis, or vagina; and
• Forced masturbation.

Sexual Assault: Definition​

Specific laws vary by state, but sexual assault generally refers to any crime in which the offender subjects the victim to sexual touching that is unwanted and offensive. These crimes can range from sexual groping or assault/battery, to attempted rape. All states prohibit this type of assault but the exact definitions of the crimes that fall within the category of sexual assault differ from state to state. The laws share some basic elements, but the structures, wording and scope of offenses vary considerably, so always check your local statutes for specific questions.

No two ways about it.

That's why I asked. You slap a guy and you get thrown out? I don't understand that.

Maybe Herbster shouldn’t have created the dirt in the first place.

I think of "assault" as items 2 through 4 on your list, but 1 is annoying pig territory. Saturday night.
That's just me.
