The RIP 2023 Thread

[Brandon]

From my memory Reubens was caught playing with his ding a ling in a seedy porn theatre.  

The 2nd controversy I remembered was that he collected vintage photography and among the photos was under age kids possibly naked?  Kind of suspicious but from what I remembered it wasn't like he was caught with child porn. 

I do find it bizarre that someone like Paul Walker who was 33 at the time was dating a 15 year old girl gets a pass because he was a blonde eyed hot guy,  yet a bizarre personality like Reubens is forever tarnished as some weird perv.

People are judged everyday.

Somehow Reubens was still acceptable to the entertainment industry after his arrest at a childrens' movie theatre incident.

It was in an adult movie theatre. Still not right, but lets not make him out to be a pedophile.

And people forgetting what Adult Movie theatres were actually like in 1991.  There used to be 34 in Times Square alone.

Yup. I imagine that kind of stuff went on all the time. Kinda surprised he was arrested for it actually. They must have been staking the place out for that activity.

Just saw this. Man things must be BADDDDDD between the two. I dont think ive even heard of a leader of state getting a divorce while in office before. Three young kids, all still in school too.

[Noeller]

I feel awful for both of them, but mostly the kids. Hopefully people respect their privacy and the troll farm that is the CPC doesn't feast on it.

Not much to feast on for any trolls, whatever the party.  This "separation" happened a long time ago, they are finally just making it official.  The timing is a bit odd but I guess she didn't want to wait for another election and wanted out and was tired of pretending.

okay wasn't Margaret a wild card herself? even though they filed for a "No fault Divorce" but I'll give Justin this, his marriage lasted five years longer than his parents did

 

I do think it's possible this job could have put a strain my mother thought all the traveling he did was a factor, but I said "But he's Prime Minister he's supposed to be at these summits"

She was eventually diagnosed as bipolar. Nowadays I think marriages can survive that but back then she was the crazy wife.

The Cons will revel in this and try to make hat from it. And as an observant Catholic, he cannot really divorce- just separate.

Pierre was 51 and she was 22 when they got married.  That marriage was never going to work long term.

Yes Margaret Trudeau has struggled with mental illness for most of her life.  There just wasn't the help back then that there is now.  She left her husband and three boys behind when she left which must have been hard.  And hard on her children too.

Catholics have a round about way of granting annulments.

Why would the "Cons" revel in this??? If this was Pierre Pollievre most of you who hate the Conservatives would be here laughing about it making it somehow political. It would be a guffaw fest.

Trudeau has more than proven he can separate his faith from how he governs.

Not my fault he has the most punchable face in Canadian political history.

Initial reports indicate a death by overdose. Damn the quality control of those dealers.
