Original: Reminder Sexual assault is bad whether committed by people we align with or people we don't. No apologies necessary on m
A widely shared comment argues that sexual assault is wrong regardless of the perpetrator's political alignment, referencing the assault Megyn Kelly says she experienced at Fox News.
