Is it also a “gas giant”?

He certainly made a very profound statement near the end of that video.

Black men were not getting congratulatory emails about their academic achievements in 1988 or prior.

He was always fond of telling women of his vast knowledge of Uranus.

The press & media can say deGrasse Tyson is a “genius” and “high intellect”.

He’s a FOOL in all reality. A liar. A moral coward. Evil and vile.

Not every type someone acts boorish is it sexual harassment or misconduct.... Awkward and drunken passes or innuendo in social settings are just what they are.

Was a time, women were women, and if a guy got out of line he got a slap, or a drink to the face, and that was that.. now its this whole lot of nonsense.

If its at work, its inappropriate, but if its not, its not misconduct for crying out loud.

Like it or not, men and women do something called sex.. if someone is being inappropriate in a work environment, or with a work colleague then yes thats an issue.. but if some guy throws a drunken or awkward pass at you that makes you uncomfortable, you simply extract yourself from the situation and that is that. You don’t claim the guys a predator or a deviant just because he made a pass at you that you weren’t interested in.

Personally not a fan of Tyson, but what this woman is “reporting” (The whole tatroo thing, not the one claiming rape) as misconduct... at a social gathering.. unless he had direct sway over her professionally, just sounds like a lousy pass or joke. She may be humiliated by it because it was done in a situation where coworkers were around her, but it doesn’t seem to be a crime to me.

“Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.”

I don’t think I’m an angel, but I do hesitate to tread here.

In terms of discerning the level of bad behavior, the rape charge is easiest. If proved beyond a reasonable doubt, it’s a hanging offense.

Pressuring a direct report to have sex: loss of job minimum. If there were no physical coercion, or overt threats of some form of retaliation, then I don’t see a crime.

The tattoo incident: Yes, he’s a deviant, a pervert, a predator. I don’t know about you, but I try to avoid looking down lady’s dresses uninvited. It’s creepy, pervy behavior, barring some really exceptional excuse that I can’t even imagine.

I don’t think the tattoo incident rises to the level of a crime, but I would entertain the argument that it’s simple misdemeanor assault. As to loss of job, it appears that this incident happened at a work-related event, where one could reasonably interpret that Tyson was representing his employer, and I wouldn’t shed a tear if he lost his job, and even his entire professional career over it.

“work related” is a dubious term... at best.

Sounded to me more like some social outing tied to some conference folks were attending (but I may be wrong).

If that’s what it was, these generally are basically social mixers and networking functions, not required attendance, or directly work related.

I am not defending Tyson, I don’t even like Tyson, but “Creepy” isn’t illegal... and if every guy or girl, whose done something “Creepy” or, interpreted by another as “creepy” in a social setting with members of the opposite sex is now a crime, well, enjoy a free population that is nothing more than a bunch of asexuals.

The problem with these things, is the “victim” gets to determine what’s a crime, which is insanity.

The adage is simple, a cute guy compliments a girl, she giggles and blushes... an ugly guy does it, and its harassment. Boorish behavior is not illegal in and off itself.

LIke I said, was a time women were women.. guy got out of line it was a slap to the face, or a drink to the face, and that was that... now its all this nonsense of weak pathetic victim mentality nonsense.

I admit I don’t know the full story, and frankly I don’t want to... but it sounds to me more like an awkward or unwanted pass at best. Tyson has no power of this woman or her career professionally. If he did indeed “grope” her, then that’s a criminal act.. but boorish actions are not defacto illegal.

No wonder kids today are so messed up...
