        It grossly conflates being gay with pedophilia, which is absolutely shameful.

        This alleged incident was 31 yrs ago and the alleged victim says that Spacey appeared intoxicated. He may not remember. And, his sexuality has been a source of speculation for ages. I see nothing wrong here. This isn’t news.

        A child was preyed upon & this isn’t news? The story is about the then 14 yr old & you buy into the “I was drunk” excuse; “it was long ago”.pic.twitter.com/HDPVAhUUE4

        I am not sure the child was preyed upon. An allegation doesn’t make a predator. Why are you so easily convinced? I also stated that he may truly not remember. Innocent until proven guilty or we just take everyone at their word these days?

        1) Kevin’s statement did not address his obvious attraction to boys. He merely stated he was drunk & has no recollection. Kevin came out.

        And, I’m not saying he did or didn’t do it. I’m saying there has been ONE allegation and I think it is too early to call KS a predator or a pedophile.

        THAT’S BECAUSE THE COMING OUT IS NOT THE NEWS STORY.

        A 26 year old man & a 14 year old boy is not gay love. It’s molestation. Kevin Spacey should be charged with assault. #hollywoodhypocrisy

        Legitimately had no idea Kevin Spacey wasn't openly gay before today. I thought he had come out decades ago #MondayMotivation

        Being gay doesn't excuse his previous behaviour. And coming out shouldn't be used as a distraction either.

        Go watch Kevin Spacey's Movie, MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL. Then you will know how long Kevin Spacey came out as Gay.
