Even 20 years ago I understood it was always at his expense. He’s such a self-aggrandizing, self-proclaimed “badass” and the jokes were always riffing off of that. It’s like the same way you’d make fun of Steven Seagal.
I mean, Walker, Texas Ranger was a show made by Chuck, about Chuck, where the day gets saved every time because the bad guys are no match for Chuck. The whole point of the jokes is that nobody was taking this guy seriously but him.
Walker, Texas Ranger was the only thing I knew Chuck from when I was a kid. I didn’t bother looking into his career until well after the Chuck Norris list started.
apparently theres a new show by jared padalaciki, it isnt that good i heard. i only found out because he had a spat with jensen ackles a while back how his defunct winchester show.
Sexual battery may be defined as non-consensual touching of the intimate parts of another. At least in Florida, “Sexual battery means oral, anal, or vaginal penetration by, or union with, the sexual organ of another or the anal or vaginal penetration of another by any other object”: See section 794.011.[15]
In this case, it’s a shame it didn’t go to court. I don’t want to defend an actual predator, but generally there are lots of accusations, not one person.
That’s not to say that it didn’t happen. It absolutely could have and we should give any victim the benefit of the doubt. The court case not proceeding due to a technicality doesn’t seem like justice served for anyone nor for society.
It says something, or at least suggests something, that the charges were dropped because she didn’t continue to file the proper forms on time. And then not only the sexual assault accusations, but the accusations that his sister helped in creating a “hostile work environment”? Stinks to high heaven of revenge accusations.
Any competent attorney would have made sure that that paperwork was filed on time, and she should have no problem getting a competent attorney with such a financially lucrative target.
And then of course there are the long running rumors that Diesel is gay, and just hasn’t come out because that doesn’t play well for an action star…
I’d never thought about the attorney working for free on the basis of the win. However, if she was a victim of a sexual assault, it could also be self sabotage as she psychologically is finding it hard to deal with or wants to avoid reliving it.
So, I’d still tend to believe her unless we have evidence otherwise or a jury of her peers says otherwise.
Not that I’m aware of. In real life I know people who have been accused with no history also. It was proven true.
Not all accusations are true, but part of the lessons of #metoo was to believe the victims of sexual assault. Also, the abundance of literature on the subject. Sure, it could be a false accusation, so we shouldn’t condemn him without investigation or trial bittnhats why there should be one.
Miatrials in the case of sexual assault just leaves an open question for both the accuser and accused. In some instances, a civil case is taken when the criminal case falls apart. Often the problem is it’s just a he said, she said situation.
So, I believe her but also don’t hold him accountable, if that makes sense. Absolutely, he should be held to account. That’s my point. He hasn’t been and there are questions about her not proceeding, that we don’t know the answer to.
I hate how he became a meme for badassery.
He was a bible thumping bigoted racist piece of shit. Good riddance.
They were jokes. Always just jokes.

I remember watching that show thinking “why does the drunk dealer skater punk murderer know kung fu.?”

We were young and ignorant back then.
Can we go back to Vin Diesel?
Yeah, about that…

At this point I just assume you only get famous by being a piece of shit

Does Diesel have any track record of these kinds of accusations?

Yeah, he couldn’t hold a candle to Bruce Lee.
