The left started this #MeToo movement, where it encouraged females that have experienced sexual assault to come forward and accuse their assaulter publicly. Some people have used this movement to try and take down good men, like Kavanaugh. With the bad, some good has come of this movement when we see that Harvey Weinstein and others have finally been taken from their predatory perch.
Fast forward, and we have Don Lemon, you know the one that thinks all Trump supporters are uneducated hillbillies, being accused of assault by a man named Dustin Hice.
According to a Fox News report, “Dustin Hice, of Florida, stated in the lawsuit that he was living in the Hamptons and working at The Old Stove Pub in Sagaponack during the summer of 2018. On July 15, after closing, Hice claimed he left with the owner and co-workers to party at another bar, Murf’s Backstreet Tavern, in Sag Harbor, where they saw Lemon. Recognizing the newsman, Hice offered to buy him a vodka drink called a “lemon drop.” Lemon declined the offer, Hice claimed, but later approached him inside the establishment.”
Dustin Hice’s lawsuit claims that “[Lemon] put his hand down the front of his own shorts, and vigorously rubbed his genitalia, removed his hand and shoved his index and middle fingers into Plaintiff’s mustache and under Plaintiff’s nose.”
Now Hice is claiming that the media isn’t taking him seriously because his assaulter is a liberal, openly gay, black man, that doesn’t fit the #MeToo movement’s stereotype for sexual assaulters.
Of course, it doesn’t fit their liberal #MeToo narrative. If the accused is not a straight white male, they don’t want to bash him or accuse him of wrongdoing. Circle the wagons around the accused if it looks like we might admit that someone of any race, color, religion or creed is capable of assault.
Don Lemon and CNN are accused of using their power and money to silence and bully Hice into submission. They have referred to Hice as an “accuser” rather than what Hice thinks he should be called a “victim.”
The best line of the lawsuit states, “When the cameras are turned off; however, Mr. Lemon’s actions are in stark and disturbing contrast to the public persona he attempts to convey.”
Don Lemon has stopped caring whether the cameras are on or off. He has shown his contempt for an entire group of people, and it doesn’t surprise me at all that he and CNN are trying to silence this man.
Hice describes himself as a “private, religious man.” He recognizes that people have had worse things than “somebody rubbing their genitals and putting it in your face, as disgusting and vile as that is. There are people have been raped and worse.”
It shouldn’t matter how bad the assault is, right? Assault is assault, and if a man is assaulting another man in a public place like a bar, what else has Don Lemon done?
