Men’s rights fanatics defend Iowa mall shooter fired for sexual harassment: It’s ‘hard to blame him’

Several members of the men’s rights movement have offered qualified support for a former Iowa mall security guard who shot and killed a 20-year-old woman Friday night after he was reportedly fired because the woman complained that he was sexually harassing her.

David Futrelle reported that commenters at a “red pillers” forum expressed sympathy for open carry advocate Alex Kozak, who they believe was unfairly treated by a system that takes sexual harassment complaints too seriously.

The so-called “red pillers” believe that society favors women over men, disenfranchising them and leaving them subject to laws and societal rules they feel are unjust to their gender.

According to Futrelle, members of the forum jumped to the defense of Kozak once they heard that sexual harassment accusations had been leveled against the married former mall cop, presumably leading to his shooting Andrea Farrington three times in the back with a 9mm handgun.

“Like rape, does the term sexual harassment pretty much no longer have any real meaning? IE it’s safe to assume there’s no chance this guy actually touched her or said anything overtly lewd?” wrote a commenter named Ziltoid, before adding, “As somebody who’s been job hunting for some time now picturing being fired, in this job market, over some twit finding you ‘creepy’… Sad to say I’m finding it hard to blame him.”

While some found Ziltoid’s comments “creepy,” others joined in by attacking the young woman who was shot, with one writing, “As far as I’m concerned, his being guilty of not giving these bitches the tingles is what caused him to get fired, and in turn, murder this chick.”

4. What sick reasoning is this?

I had family members nearby the shooting scene and they had been familiar with the young lady. I'm sure she reported his behavior because she was frightened by him. What would he have done if she'd accepted his overtures? Scary? Absolutely.

I did not go to his Facebook page, but I understand it was "creepy" and not a place I'd want to see.

These comments are beyond sane.

Our society is slipping quickly into the gutter. RIP Andrea.

5. I don't think that reasoning

is one of the skills they are capable of using. The comments are indeed insane.
