Man helped toddler find her mother, was harassed out of town for it

Article here. Excerpt:

'A man trying to help a lost toddler find her parents was misidentified as a kidnapper on social media over the weekend, according to police in Lakeland, Fla., prompting him to leave town in fear for his safety and the safety of his family.

The man was also punched by the child’s father who told local media that he “thought he was trying to take my daughter” and “wanted to kill him.”

The whole episode prompted the Lakeland Police Department to warn citizens to “be careful about what you post on social media so as not to victimize an innocent person … Before posting information on matters such as this, we encourage people to identify the source and the validity of such claims before sharing them.”

Lakeland police, in a Facebook post, said the falsely accused man was visiting friends at a softball game when he noticed at a 2-year-old had gotten separated from her parents. She was “wandering by herself,” police said, and the man “believed that she was lost.'

. . . he sues the dad for punching him, and whoever posted the lies about him for defamation. It seems the only way to stop the bigots is to make their bigotry expensive.

is for this guy to move far, far away. maybe even think about a name change. feminists have finally found a way to instantly criminalize ANY man, and its nothing new. I was watching a fairly old 'special victims' episode the other day where a detective was wrongfully accused of some sort of assault (rape or molestation, can't remember). at the end, where he was finally exonerated (lucky him + expensive lawyer), he was shown telling his (det.) gf to find somebody else. he was and would always be 'damaged goods'. people would always be whispering behind their backs...

yep, feminists have finally found a way to destroy any man. they even tried it on MR. Trump right before the election. remember? almost worked too. I knew it was coming when he started closing the gap on his entitled opponent. I believe the reason it didn't have more of an impact was timing. they fired it off too soon or too late. haven't figured out which yet.

the reason it works so good is because most people are willing to believe and spread ANYTHING bad about a man. especially if it comes from the gov. then there are the 1/2 men to worry about, ready to kill because a woman was wronged. they do that on the olden days westerns too.

yep. it's nothing new and it really works good these internet days. now ... who's next?
