A Total Monster, Part Ii

...He and a girl had gotten drunk, and sure enough did slip outside, both of them had been caught f-cking in the stairs on a dorm’s north side. The outrage brigades went crazy, the snowflakes all just lost their sh-t, claimed this woman couldn’t consent, it was ‘rape,’ and he had done it! That he himself was quite drunk too didn’t matter that much you see, that this woman raised no outcry did not mean they should show mercy. They ginned up their two-minute hate, called him ‘sexist,’ ‘rapist’ and ‘scum, demanded that he be fired before he could 'hurt anyone.' Harassed the fire department with protests that dragged on for weeks, spammed the city’s internet sites, even interrupted a mayor’s speech. And the media latched on it, lied boldly, like they always do, got a survivor to declared she would not have gone if she knew. Ed, obviously, was surprised, but knew his team would stand by him, yet when the politicians called saw things were looking rather grim. And when the mayor explained to him that the city must protect itself, he resigned to keep his pension, cursing public servants to hell. And now he can no longer save good people when they might be hurt, but the SJWs don’t care, they cheered taking down ‘a monster.’
