MJK Sexual Assault claims

[Calfium Jay]

I'm surprised no one here has blamed Trump yet.

Or have I made a too early call??

[hellboy]

Your obsession with Trump is laughable. If any President is to blame it'd be Bill Clinton.

[Calfium Jay]

We could blame anti depressive medication. That seems to taking quite a bad rap these days.....

[tys0n]

I wonder how many chicks read this fanciful story and though 'God I wish that were me', similar to how I feel when I read about female high school teachers banging their students.

We could I guess, but I doubt it. I suspect it's more about poor decision making on the part of two people. Maynard probably should have asked, and she probably should have objected.

^ you speak as if this is factual? If we are going to start working off conjecture can I please ask what the fuck is Tonka Tyson still doing here??

[tys0n]

Yeah, I should have asked but you should have objected.

Not saying it is factual, but it's easy to understand how a situation could have arisen.

[Busty McCracken]

I actually blame my boyfriend at the time for being stupid enough to let me go behind the canteen by myself with my favourite Tonka

My expactation is that this unfortunately will have a large impact on the Tool camp.

Though, hopefully better than worse. On MJs anger & not his trial.

It might effect the recording schedule. I expect the actual songwriting is done at this point, so doubt this episode will have any measurable impact on their output.

Statute of limitations

Statute of limitations

Crossed fingers for best of worst.

[hellboy]

Statute of limitations is a rubbish law. If Maynard found to be guilty he should be punished. That would be accompanied by a shutdown of this site.

I very much doubt it would ever get that far.

Spotify taking Tool off Spotify before Tool is on Spotify.

[Bill Hilly]

These claims are serious, and I will take them serious when there is proof and/or Maynard himself addresses these claims.
I can barely listen to Qotsa after watching Josh homme kick that photographer in the head, which just compounded his douche baggery. I'm not sure my reaction would be much different if this is true..

[UndKeineZwEier]

If this person wanted to press charges they wouldn't have posted this anonymously.

[Busty McCracken]

You would shut down this site if Maynard was found to be guilty of this accusation?? Really? You're not maybe jumping to conclusions a little here?

I sincerely doubt the legitimacy of these claims and understand that you are speaking in hypothetical terms , but worst case scenario it actually turned out to be true (which once again I sincerely doubt) then you just straight up have already decided, that's it I'm done , page closed. Will you also never listen to the band again?

I'm not making light of non consensual sex or anything , just fuck I'm surprised by some of the comments in this thread.

You're contradicting yourself a little there. I won't be jumping to any conclusions, but if he's convicted of something, then what other conclusion would I logically make?

I'll make myself 100% clear - if Maynard is found guilty of charges of raping fans, this site will be closed down. I'll not be willing to support the band(s) in the manner I currently do.

[tys0n]

It'd be like still running a Lost Prophets fan page after the fact

Also I thought the lyrics to Opiate were suppose to be a metaphor . . .

[Busty McCracken]

Fair enough. I understand your stance, I guess I'm just surprised that you feel the need to make such a strong statement after a solitary social media accusation from an anonymous source more than anything.

[tys0n]

Yeah Hellboy kinda fueled the fire starting this thread, but it was going to be discussed regardless, damned if you do, damned if you don't

[Busty McCracken]

I understand the discussion and need for a thread, just from what I've seen, Hellboy has generally been pretty quick to douse any hysteria on a tool rumour. Where as in this thread , has made a few comments , albeit hypothetical, that give me the impression he sees potential they may come true.. just surprised is all.

[tys0n]

He's an insider to an extent, maybe he's heard or seen things others haven't (or was backstage and saw Jimmy pull mad pussy and was jelly as fuck)
