Default Sexual harassment on the golf course
a letter to the editor in the online news

Last Sunday while playing at Mallory as I and another female were teeing off the sprinklers were turned on. Two workers were seen nearby. This appeared deliberate. Has this happened to other women? Please speak up. This cannot be tolerated.

LOL, The Reckoning has arrived in our home town. Hard to tell if she is serious or joking.

Consider the source....the online news.

The source is the letter writer for starters. Are you saying that stories posted at this site about accidents, arrests, and other news stories are all fictional? The lady did sign her name under the letter. I don't know if she was serious or not, just thought it funny. YMMV

Hey, this happened to me on number 8 green on Virginia at Mallory. Do they have female water turner on-ers and was I being harassed? Who knew?

What made this sexual harassment? If the golfers were male and the two standing people were female is it still sexual harassment? I think the word sexual is not appropriate.

Once, I had a lie in the middle of the fairway, where I had to take a stance with the sprinkler between me and the ball. The sprinkler went off in the middle of my backswing. Stuff happens. Some courses have the sprinklers on timers.

You are posting on an "online" forum. Is everything posted here false?

I love the poor parking photos in the online paper. Please don't tell me they are photoshopped or pics taken elsewhere.

I read it and I think the poster was aiming at humor. The one on the online news.

I THINK what the poster was TRYING to say is that he didn't agree with the online news.

You are a little "new" here so you may not know that this Forum hasn't allowed us to discuss the online news or call it by it's other name. So I don't think he meant online news in the broader sense but the **************.

Let's see if that got through the censors.

I think sir or madam you are taking a tone on here that we aren't used too. But we all believe in the first and the second amendment, so let 'er rip.
