WWE releases Enzo Amore

Thank you. Some common sense. When these things boil down to he-said/she-said, it's hard to make a case. That doesn't mean the thing never happened. Women in the mess that this alleged victim was are often preyed on because the old boys will dismiss even credible stories if it goes against the narrative they want to believe about women loving to lie about being weakened and violated.

If there's not enough evidence to press charges against Enzo, of course he shouldn't be prosecuted. That's not to say he is entitled to a job in entertainment.

Enzo is just as innocent as any human being who hasn't been accused of rape.

Statistically, false reports of sexual abuse are very, very rare. I'm not going to look up the statistic again, but again, the old boys make it very hard for people (men, women and children) to come out and actually say "Yes, this happened to me." Your reasoning is perfectly logical until it ignores the data around these sorts of acts. It's coming at it from an "all things being equal" point of view, which is fine for a court of law, but doesn't reflect reality.

You're seeing it in the public sphere more and more. That Lawrence Krauss guy was accused of sexual assault by a whole bunch of independent witnesses -- many of them with sterling reputations, with it being a detriment to their careers to speak out about it. A whole bunch of edgy lads on the net go around saying stuff like "That's not evidence; that's not evidence." It's so gross. There wouldn't have been evidence in this situation, and Enzo shouldn't be locked up because of an accusation that can't be validated -- which is unfortunate if true -- but that's a blind-spot of the legal system. And it's a blind-spot that has to be there. It's just gross when MRAs borderline relish it. Gives me the goddamn heebies.

And if I were running a wrestling company, fuck Enzo Amore. He's not talented enough to warrant the headaches even if he had an airtight alibi. But Impact will use him, so good for that shit-hole.

It absolutely reflects reality. What DOESN'T effect reality is when you haphazardly take any accusation as true or even likely until proven otherwise because "most women don't lie about this". The evidence in this case is the evidence in this case. That's reality. The idea that anyone making an allegation must be believed until proven otherwise is disgusting regardless of the claim.
