Huey

My Sister rang me in tears last night. A dirty 'sprucer' of an Old Timer, tried to put his hand up her skirt while she was in the Church kitchen doing her Tea & Coffee 'Service'. He told her he wanted to "stick his finger up her bum". . . . .
Needless to say, the Police have been informed, and statements taken. . . This evening i'm visiting his home address to punch his stinking head off of his shoulders. . . . I'm sure Billy Wilson would have been proud of the pervert. . .

Huey, stand down. Nobody is worth putting yourself at risk for this. Garbage goes in the can, it looks like it is all ready for pickup, too. Let it play out.

This never happened to me and I have been an active
AA member for decades.
I had more men hit on me as a drinker for sure.....
predators come in all shapes..ages and in all sorts of places.

Sorry to know your sister had such a horrible
expereince. Prayers of comfort coming her way.

Please do let the police deal with the situation.
Instead of taking this on your shoulder could you not be
a better brother by going to your sister and offering her
loving hugs and support?

Please re consider your action....it is realy not wise...

Huey, calm down. I know this is upsetting. The police will handle this.

I have never experienced this in AA. I have been in the rooms for a few years now.

Prayers for your sister.

yeah dont go over to this persons house and "assault" the person. Thats not the answer, you should know that. Its like saying your going to pick up again because something didn't go well. No need for violence, the true person would be to by your sisters side when this guy is confronted. Show him your the better person. Not go over and assault someone.

instead of wasting your time and energy on a sick man, why not use your time and energy to help the victim? or, go clean his clock and make the situation even worse. kick his arse. put him in the hospital. he'll still be a sick man.

If the events took place as reported, they could have happened anywhere (and often do). It has nothing, even remotely, to do with AA.

Let the police handle it.

If you react physically, or threatening, your sister will feel you are not someone she can come to with problems when she needs support. She will feel she will have to hide problems from you, and that will hurt her.

She needs you there for her, and what you are describing is only for you.

Best wishes to you both.

Yes. Even though I'm not really a fan of AA and never really used its program I have to agree with you that it's just the sad reality of life: this stuff happens everywhere. D:

Yuck.. and I agree, this sort of stuff happens everywhere. Happens in bars, actually, all the damn time.

Simmer down my friend. Im not downplaying what happened to her at all. That is 100% unacceptable. Let the cops do their job ..you support her. Also let the GC deal with it. You support her. People are inappropriate EVERYWHERE. Coworkers harrassing each other, it happens in schools, churches, dont get me going on crap that happens in bars... Again not downplaying AT ALL what happened to her. I feel very bad she was violated. However this is not an AA issue. Make sure she is ok first.

As some post offered no support to either our member or his sister
and instead took this thread as a chance to bash AA....

they were removed and this thread is closed.
