Since groping through a flak jacket didn't appear that difficult from the photo I saw, 50 Shades Of Blue Nov 2017 #28

Except he's not touching her so maybe you didn't look at the photo that closely. Kirk Lover Nov 2017 #42

It appears he EASILY could have, in the fraction of time the photo shows. 50 Shades Of Blue Nov 2017 #46

He is supposed to look creepy and it is supposed to be a joke. It's very obvious it's a joke. Kirk Lover Nov 2017 #48

Of course it's a gag photo. What I want to know is whether it was taken on an airplane. n/t rzemanfl Nov 2017 #3

The photo in question appears to be the interior of a Boeing C-17 Globemaster Brother Buzz Nov 2017 #41

Thank you Buzz. Some people have been saying it was a skit. n/t rzemanfl Nov 2017 #45

The skit was about the kiss. The photo is the woman sleeping, on plane and mock groping. SandyZ Nov 2017 #47

Yes, according to reports they were on their way back home. trof Nov 2017 #44

Good question comrade awesomerwb1 Nov 2017 #27

I get it. I believe the woman, therefore I'm Russian Pugster Nov 2017 #54

Did she consent to be the object of this type of humor? Marengo Nov 2017 #10

Someone who claims to be the photographer said she did, but so far no one else has, including Marengo Nov 2017 #16

You mean, "A Twitter account already outed for disinformation on Politifact... moriah Nov 2017 #37

Yep, thats the one being promoted as indesputable proof she gave consent. Marengo Nov 2017 #66

That's to be determined. And there were two other witnesses: the photographer pnwmom Nov 2017 #24

It may be a gag, but she wasn't in on it ksoze Nov 2017 #9

Exactly trof Nov 2017 #50

Uh...if he'd actually whipped it out... trof Nov 2017 #23

She could have been in on a gag. It's not hard to close your eyes for a photo. pnwmom Nov 2017 #26

Shes not a Soldier on a mission Lee-Lee Nov 2017 #55

She was an entertainer who could have closed her eyes as part of a gag. Right? n/t pnwmom Nov 2017 #65

At this point she says shes asleep and he doesnt say it was a gag or she consented Lee-Lee Nov 2017 #79

It happened 11 years ago. My impression from his statement was that he didn't remember pnwmom Nov 2017 #80

Nobody has said it was a gag she was aware of and in on Lee-Lee Nov 2017 #81

As to the photo, it was clearly intended to be funny but wasnt. I shouldn't have done it. nt spotthebird Nov 2017 #87

You have fallen for the idea that anybody could be groped through a flak jacket, pnwmom Nov 2017 #89

I havent fallen for anything Lee-Lee Nov 2017 #90

Have you ever fallen asleep on a plane or in a car without a neck pillow? spotthebird Nov 2017 #83

Ive actually been asleep in that exact same kind of plane in body armor Lee-Lee Nov 2017 #85

It takes discipline to hold one's head up while asleep spotthebird Nov 2017 #86

While I admit it was meant in a comedic way, that doesn't take away from its inappropriateness... hlthe2b Nov 2017 #19

How did she get the photo? Cattledog Nov 2017 #20

She addressed that. B2G Nov 2017 #30

Wait... awesomerwb1 Nov 2017 #35

She says she didn't tell anyone about it until now, so Hannity is lying to lend credence tblue37 Nov 2017 #72

Nope. Doesn't make it OK. She was used as a prop for a sexual gag, apparently without her Squinch Nov 2017 #36

I agree with you and I am pretty sure he agrees with you XRubicon Nov 2017 #58

If it turns out the photo was taken without her consent, I really will find iit repulsive in a Squinch Nov 2017 #61
