I dont believe this

😞

Don’t believe the way the LGBTQ does! No one should be treated disrespectful or harmed for their beliefs and that should go both ways

Duh 🙄 not acceptable every where

LGBT school lessons protests spread nationwide I wonder why?

As America says “That ain’t nuthin, hold my beer, we can beat that!”

Define “harassment”. The rules are constantly changing about what harassment is, so some clarification would be nice. Sorry, sorry that would involve facts and we all know those don’t help mend people’s hurt feelings.

12 in 10 liberals look for something that offends them.

This is complete bs. It indicates how poisonous a hyper PC culture is. These people think they have a right to not be offended and when they are , they say they've been harassed.

Well by their definition maybe by law it’s like 1/20, but lets not think about anything and just believe them.

Pretty easy to rack up those harassment claims when calling someone 'sir, madam, him, or her', or simply pausing momentarily in conversation out of lack of full understanding, becomes a 'microagression'....

As opposed to 8 out 10 women. What’s your point?

Along with every single woman who ever worked.

Did you come to find out today? I want to see when the matter arrives at the part of the violence that may end up until the MURDER, due to xenophobia.

Doubt it.

this is a problem where do they get these numbers? these polls and studies are just a small group and they say this is what happened to the rest of the UK and what even more wrong is cnn will spread divide in any country not just the USA

Mostly from the Islamist immigrants they foolishly allowed in their country. WadeDukes

Everybody has unwanted things happen to them. I work with a touchy-feely woman. Little things like putting her hand on my shoulder when she looks at my computer screen. Touching my arm when she greats me, etc. She does this to everyone. I’m not harassed - just uncomfortable.

Not anything to do with the notariety of the being 1 in the world for beer consumption. 😎

and the left always looks to Europe for progress...

10 out of 10 brexiters are harassed in Britain.

When you force a square peg into a round hole , things go wrong.

Is it really ‘alarming’?

Here we go again 🤦‍♂️ we are not in the UK. why are you reporting on the plight of homosexuals in another country? You should change the name of your network to GNN

They define something as vague as 'unwelcome touching' as sexual harassment. Just another study manipulating its definitions to get the sexual harassment rate as high as possible, so leftists can claim there is a massive problem.

That's because what sexual harassment is has been watered down to another meaningless term. It's like the same loons that scream racism every time

CNN💩says they want us to be more like Europe! Fools at fake news central

Yes!! Mothers are losing custody in courts because they come out as gay!!!!

Why is it alarming?

شاهد ملاحم دولة الإسلام في الموصل

Not so alarming if you're LGBTQ. Do better.

is it legal?

It’s a bully world

Shaq is a class act. The kid is 13 with a size 18 shoe. And not much shorter than Shaq. Sure hope the kid is playing ball.
