    What the hell is the matter with these actor dudes these days?  Not ruling out that some of the accusations were exaggerated but all eight?  Doubtful.  Disappointing!

    More and more when these dudes get caught and outed, then they apologize ... I am more apt to believe they are just sorry they were caught and outed...

    Brian, I agree ... all 8 are not exaggerating ...

    This sounds like an ongoing legal matter. Did anyone get permission from the mods to discuss this?

    Do we have permission to discuss every other ongoing legal matter that gets discussed throughout the forums here, especially in A Moving Train?

    Yeah jails can be kind of boring. I've visited some historically significant ones (Alcatraz, Kilmainham), but ultimately they're just creepy old buildings.

    I toured Kingston Pen last summer ... it was interesting, mostly because retired guards were part of the tour ... so they were informative.  Plus Kingston Pen has housed most of Canada's most notorious criminals...

    I’ve found jail tours incredibly interesting. Toured LA central Jail.
    But with my dad working there I got a lot of behind the scenes and parts they don’t show everyone. A standard tour probably is pretty boring.

    Kingston Pen was interesting.  Your dad was a correctional officer?  The most interesting part of Kingston pen for me was in the cell blocks ... they had this one wing unavailable to tour ... the retired guard said all those names you are thinking were housed in there, the like of Clifford Olsen, Paul Bernardo ... etc. ... but the most interesting statement he made, it didn't make sense to him why certain inmates need protection in Kingston pen, he went onto say every inmate in Kingston pen were the worst of society...

    Back to the pervs enough with the jails they should all have to face the consequences of their actions/crime it is a crime to sexually assault someone no ? that’s what’s do fucked up that the president of this nation has admitted to assaulting women because of his status yet he remains free !

    I guess you could say some of them are haunted. But going by the old theory of a soul being unable to pass over, I'm sure some of those ghosts deserve it.

    Yes, agreed, and Freeman has made it more than clear that he thinks being called out now is not fair at all, and he's completely minimized his actions, trying to blow them off as irrelevant, as jokes, etc. Too bad, so sad buddy! I do think there have been a few actors who have been unfairly targeted because of some hysteria and/or because of the inability of some to consider the fact that these are human beings living life ... But when there are 8 accusations like the ones being made against Freeman, that is not the case.
