Of course I'm still confused as to how his checking a schedule and making remarks that could otherwise be construed as machismo and bravado suddenly makes him a stalker, raper, and killer.

You seem to be missing the whole won't-leave-her-alone part, the whole making-unwanted-advances-after-asked-not-to part, and the whole threatening-to-kick-my-ass part.

wtf is wrong with you people?! Sh|t, I never should have started this thread if you fscks are just going to crap all over it.

Dude I'm not crapping on you for what you're doing but calling this guy a stalker, raper, and killer is a little extreme. I agree with what you're doing and how you're protecting your girl (all the more power to you) but degrading this guy first by rationalizing his actions as the result of his ethnicity then by using criminal terms to describe him, well I seriously question your people skills. I'm just a little more careful with my word selection, that's all, no need to get worked up over my questioning what you call the guy. Unbunch your panties already.

HIS RACE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HOW POORLY HE'S RESPECTING CHELSEA AND I. HE'S DOING IT. HE'S HISPANIC. I MADE A SIMPLE CONNECTION TO ALL THE OTHER PROBLEMS I'VE SEEN AND HAD TO DEAL WITH IN THE PAST. HAVE YOU EVER CALLED THE POLICE AFTER TWO MEXICANS REPEATEDLY FOLLOWED YOUR MOTHER AROUND, KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR AT ALL HOURS OF THE NIGHT, ETC.? NO.

Lay off the race issue. I made one single point about an observation and then left it alone. Do the same.

Damn it I'm not trying to make this a race issue. If you want to go through the rest of your life judging mexicans and hispanics because of your traumatic experience fine, that's your decision. Note I never said anything about race in my initial post.

What I'm pissed about is that you're calling this guy a stalker, rapist, and killer. It's people like you that make lawyers rich because those terms have no meaning anymore, people get all desensitized to this criminal sh1t because the words get tossed around to freely. He's disrepectful and makes unwanted advances, does that instantly degrade him into a sex offender? He checks her schedule. Big fawking deal, it's not like he has her home address or phone number right? Now please don't tell me that you fear for your life now just because he said he's gonna kick your ass.

Ultimately all of this is on you. You're the one that posted your whole life story on here, does that mean you're entitled to an opinion and I'm not? Some think you're overreacting, some think you're making this a race issue, and then there's me that has a severe problem with your word choice because you don't seem to get the idea that being a stuborn jerk-off punk is one thing and being a damn criminal is another. You being a boyfriend ultimately won't get you in trouble. You calling someone a rapist and stalker and killer eventually will. You posted on here for some advice so there's mine.

Yeah, I know it's on me. The egg is on my face because ignorant people can't leave well enough alone.

If it's not a race issue with you, then why do you keep bringing it up? If it truely isn't a race issue, you'll drop it. I'm not judging him on his race. I didn't see him and go "OH! THAT MUST BE THE GUY BECAUSE HE'S HISPANIC!" The only person who's drilling the race issue is you. I am no fool. Despite what some of you blowhards believe, I actually have the ability to use logic in my conscious thought. I made an obvservation and a connection. Nothing more. I never called him a rapist and a killer. In fact, I said that he was boarderline stalking. And those aren't my words, either; they came from someone else. And, yes, if he threatens to remove me from the situation and ignore what she feels so he can bang my girl, yes he's got the potential to be a sexual offender.

OK, can you put the updates into the initial post. I really don't want to sit here and read through the fluff.
But from initial post, your GF has no case. These SH laws should be taken off the books IMO. Just an excuse for people to sue and ruin other people's businesses.

You know what's funny? I work at a restaurant (The Cheesecake Factory) and there's a crapload of sexual harassment that goes on there too. One of the bussers got canned just last week due to several complaints about sexual harassment! :Q And yes, he was hispanic. I tell you, the bussers and the guys in the kitchen are DIRTY and RUDE. I have nothing against hispanics but when all they do is talk trash about the women behind their backs as well as TO THEIR FACES (in Spanish) that makes me lose lots of respect for them.

Sorry to hear that Chelsea had to deal with that, Nik. If you need to round up a posse, count me in. Those kinds of guys make my fist itch.

Heh, it does seem to happen a good deal, I know where I used to work we had a dishb1tch who would constantly walk by one of our waitresses (he was like 17 she was 19 tops) and rub against her and get really close, I asked her on several occassions if it was becoming a problem and she kept saying no, hes just an annoyance, so then he started grabbing her ass, and I mean REALLY grabbing her ass (wont go into detail exactly but it wasn't just putting his hand on her ass or anything).

So I walked over to her, said "hey, is it a problem yet?" she goes "yeah, I can't deal with that, I have to find a new job" I was like "hey look I will talk to him, give it a couple days" she agreed, and I cornered the guy, told him flat out, I EVER, EVER catch you doing that again you will have tolimp your way out of the back partking lot. He said "ok cool off man I wasnt serious".

Heh, so of course as I suspected, two days later wham, does it again, she's like on the brink of tears and I called him over to the door....he's looking at me with that "you cant touch me" look, and I said, you know what? we need to have another discussion....

While he didnt have to LIMP out of the parking lot, he sure as heck gained a newfound, and forcefull, respect for women that night ;)

And not to condone violence or anything, but some people just don't understand talking about things, you have to burn them to make them understand not to stick their hand in certain places :)

Almost as much fun as the guy who caugh my elbow to the side of his head for being rude when some girls were body surfing at a local show last year :)

Heh, anyways, yeah like amnesiac said, if you need to round up a posse ;)
