The allegations are mostly involved with inappropriate touching or sexual advances toward younger male actors. But that's okay because Spacey admitted he's gay and that alone is heroic, which excuses him from making simple mistakes that may have started as early as the 1980 when his acting career began. It also apparently continued into the late 2000s.
Spacey told Rapp he was sorry and offered to kiss the boo boo, but Rapp declined [again]. Actually, Spacey's apology was as sincere as Hillary Clinton's bewilderment over how to clean a hard drive.
Spacey's representatives responded to Business Insider's request for a comment on the new allegations that "Kevin Spacey is taking the time necessary to seek evaluation and treatment. No other information is available at this time."
The time necessary for evaluation and treatment should be "ten to twenty" and no time off for good behavior.
It's remarkable that Spacey is using a similar tactic as Harvey Weinstein and calling his behavior a 'mistake.'
After Rapp's accusation, Netflix stopped production on "House of Cards," a Spacey-starring political drama.
Some of the men accusing Spacey of sexual misconduct are:
Anthony Rapp--he accused the gay actor of making sexual advances toward him in 1986, when he was merely 14 and Spacey 26. He said Spacey invited him to his Manhattan apartment where he was watching TV in a bedroom. Spacey picked him up, placed him on the bed, lay on top of him and made a sexual advance. Roberto Cavazos-- a Mexican actor. He wrote in his Facebook page accusing Spacey of trying to touch him against his will at the bar of London's Old Vic Theatre in 2008. Spacey was the artistic director there from 2004 to 2015 and Cavazos appeared in many plays there starting in 2008.
"I don't remember how many people told me the same story: Spacey would invite them to meet him to 'talk about their careers,'" Cavazos wrote. "When they arrived at the theatre, [Spacey] had prepared champagne on the stage, beautifully lit. Each story varied in how far the picnic went, but the technique was the same. More common was to find him at the bar of the theatre, grabbing whoever caught his attention."
Tony Montana--independent filmmaker was allegedly groped by Spacey at a Los Angeles bar in 2003.
Anonymous man with "authority in the industry" -- who asked to remain anonymous but self-described as a person in a "position of responsibility and authority in the industry." He told the BBC that he was left "traumatized" after an incident in 1984, when he awoke to find Spacey "lying on" him. Going by the name "John" he said he met Spacey at a summer theater when he was 16. The next year he stayed with Spacey at his New York City apartment where the alleged incident took place. He said Spacey tried to get him to sleep in his bed but he chose the sofa instead, but awoke to find Spacey's "head was on my stomach, and his arms were wrapped around my torso." He was fully clothed while Spacey was in his skivvies.And I'm sure there are plenty of others who have yet to come forward.
So let those liberals with their virtue signalling and unearned moral superiority tell conservatives how terrible we are. Facts are stubborn things.
