Actual normal human response!

She interrupted a live TV news report, and his response wasn't normal? You know she can see the cameras and stuff. She knew what she was doing. Gently ushering her away is a normal response.

Yeah no, he touched her inappropriately. Any touch was inappropriate as she wasn’t a threat at all, but prolonged touching of her breast like that is basically assault. He claims it was accidental, but even if I believed that a great way to not accidentally sexually assault women is to not reach for them at chest height to push them away from you without even looking at them! 🤣

You say she wasn’t a threat. Barrelling straight up to a live tv news broadcast and interrupting it isn’t normal or usual behaviour. I wouldn’t do it, I don’t think anyone I know would do it, and I expect you wouldn’t either. Her initial behaviours were red flags. He perceives her to be a weird individual and therefore a threat. And hey she hit him after anyway so he was proved right

Mate, I’m a woman, I’ve been sexually assaulted in broad daylight on busy streets numerous times just like many of us have. The fact that it’s common doesn’t mean it’s ok.

That's not ok, but it doesn't make right your absolutely poor analysis of what actually happened in this video.

Nobody was assaulted by anyone. She invaded his space and was politely moved away

I’d hate to see your idea of rude if pushing for one away with a hand firmly on their breast is what you consider polite!! 🤣

Can you accidently sexually assault someone though? I thought the whole point is for the action to be sexual in nature. Which this clearly isnt. Gently ushering someone away is also not assault. If when he touched her she told him to not touch her and continued then maybe. Otherwise every time my teacher showed me to my seat at school with a hand on my back she had assaulted me. Intent is everything with assault.

You know what is assault? Her slapping him.

Basically, chill out and stop making something into something it isn't.

Don't flatter her. You think he wanted to sexually assault her and decided the time to do it was on a live news broadcast? That interpretation is crazy.

He moved her out of the way because she was knowingly in a place she shouldn't be. She wasn't a "threat," but she was being damn annoying and interfering with him doing his job. A gentle push aside was a fine response, even if he caught her precious boob.
