I am a husband, with 2 daughters, aged 22 and 28, and I am appalled that we even nee this thread. I am saddened for all of you who were sexually assaulted, and dont kid yourselves, unwanted touching is sexual assault. My thoughts are for everyone this happened to. NOW.. WE NEED TO GOTV AND NOT ALLOW TRUMP ELECTED. No sexual predictors allowed ever again.
