In reply to Jon K. Oh, I'm obnoxious cause I believe PARNELL hosted and cultivated a culture of sex abuse? Good god.

In reply to Jon K.

One would think, that the good things the choose respect CAMPAIGN does, is general operating procedure.

Leave it to PARNELL to turn it into a 12 foot banner so he and his cronies can and do stand behind for the cameras.

By the way Jon K, you are addressing someone in the village.

In reply to Mae.

Mae, tell that to all of the villages that now have new VPSOs, or the battered women that now have attorneys representing them, or the shelters that received extra money, or the communities that got troopers. The choose respect campaign has also heightened awareness across this state about an awful epidemic.

Yes it looks like parnell screwed up. Big time. But to say that these failures mean that the choose respect campaign is some meaningless PR stunt is simply wrong.

You sound just as obnoxious as those who said Obamacare is a govt takeover of health care.

That whole Choose Respect thing IS a campaign photo op for PARNELL and his cronies.

This whole “scandal” isn’t a scandal at all, but a culture of accepted sex abuse.
Disgusting.

In reply to Jon K. Well, Jon we agree on that. This scandal is now looking more like a cancer on the organization. I can only imagine the impact now on unit effectiveness. "Plausible deniability", displacement of responsibility, and tepid responce by leadership in the Executive, and Legislative branches is not going to work any longer.

My God! Keep telling me there is no need for a state and or federal special prosecutor. Tell me there is no need to immediately end allowing the State Commissioner of Military and Veterans affairs to also wear the uniform of a two star General Officer? Remind me that there is no need for future legislative oversight of this department. Apparently a General from Connecticut with a few like thinkers is all we need now.

“Bombshell” doesn’t even begin to describe this. This is damning.
