CBT Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 (edited) 20 hours ago, seredynskib said: This accusation seems false to me because: 1.) The Daily Mail is a tabloid that even Wikipedia doesn’t recognize as real news. 2.) The “unidentifed source” 3.) No evidence from the “unidentified source” & his current nursing company says he has been only respectful and kind to his nurses. 4.) No one went to the police. 5.) Stan Lee was extorted for $300,000 just a week ago. I wouldn’t be surprised if those same people are behind this in an act of revenge/blackmail. 6.) Very uncharacteristic of his public image. I don’t think I’ve ever even heard the man swear, much less talk the way this article claims. I agree with everything you say, other than wikipedia being quoted as an authority on anything. If this was a legitimate claim, the goal would be punishment, not winning the lottery. Just like so often people accuse politicians of things, and then as soon as the election passes, the accusers vanish like Keyser Söze into thin air. If the accusations are real, the person will want justice regardless of whether it benefits them directly or not. Since Stan Lee will have an estate after he is gone, I would expect this nonsense will not go away anytime soon. My thoughts: If he actually physically assaulted someone, charge him and put him in prison. If he was rude and there is proof, make him apologize and stop working for him but no LOTTO MAX paydays for hurt feelings. If the person accused him falsely, sue her into homelessness and throw her into debtors prison... Edited January 12, 2018 by CBT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Surfer Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 This is just getting out of control. Didn't Matt Lauer's mistress admit to having an affair with him for over a month but after a while felt like he was using his power to take advantage of her?

prez Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I wonder how these accusations will affect the value of the hundreds of thousands of his Sig Series? Will collectors overlook this and give him a pass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will collectors overlook this and give him a pass? I think that anyone with common sense will understand a 94 year old man who has to be helped to walk around isn't strutting around in the nude. I wouldn't be surprised if he has to be helped to get dressed and bathed. Wasn't it in a link earlier in the thread that the nursing staff has disputed the claims of this article. Anyone who lives their life by the daily mail article is probably looking for gossip and won't be swayed by any truth of what happened, sad really. It hasn't been relayed by a reliable source to my knowledge.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1950's war comics Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 The claims against Stan were pretty over the top and if true are inappropriate ,... on the other hand the claims against 93 yr old former pres Bush are incomprehensible,... saying he might have gotten a little squeeze in from his wheelchair with his wife right by his side..... so what FoggyNelson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you be okay with one of your daughters friends grandpa squeezing her ? You are cool with 93? How about 85? Does simply qualifying for Medicaid work? Is pawing at a young boy as acceptable as pawing a young girl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for him being in a wheelchair, I have met and conversed with people in wheelchairs, that is not where their hands went. MV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
