Now let’s talk about politicians and their abuse of power. Crickets

[@dianne2458]

Im glad these brave coast guards are standing up to these perpetrators and show that retaliation is a normal culture and accepted behavior. Show people the truth and it shall set you free. This is disgusting

[@kristinabolba1351]

Keep it rooted ..go girl.

Can you start including links to the full length version of these clips in the description box? I wanna watch the full length that you have of this clip, but it's so hard to scroll and scroll through and try and find because your titles maybe click the baby, but the titles do not help me find what I'm looking for at all.. I search Forbes coast guard whistle blower or Forbes coast guard and just nothing I can't find it so can you please include links in the future a? If there is a human there

the continued ignorance of people toward this subject astounds me-it happens every day to children and adults of all ages sexes and colors-at all economic and societal levels, and the continued reason for a psychiatric nurse to exist-my patients have all been abused and neglected as children fostering an environment that creates mental illness-these ladies under great duress within a structured system are here speaking out toward the continued abuse of our youth training to protect our country-The appalling non professional way this was handled,the obvious not following procedure needs to be addressed within that system now not tomorrow

[@SteveXNYC]

😂😅Fear😂🤣. What joke😁

[@timpeters9965]

How do we knoew youre not making it up? And of course everyone has a right to confront their accuser. I was in the Coast Guard and all this sounds made up.

[@drsin6856]

Its true because women can never lie 😅

[@libertybell8852]

Because it wasn't your experience? It's sad, but certainly bears looking into.

[@timpeters9965]

@libertybell8852 no because speaking isn't actually evidence.

[@timpeters9965]

@libertybell8852 and if you go to government to speak in a hearing I automatically don't believe you.

[@claudeyaz]

I recommend to look it up yourself, they are actually multiple stories and multiple witnesses and you can find their stories all over KZbin they've been re-uploaded. The assaults likely don't happen much more than they do in civilian life, with the issue with the military is what is covered in this hearing, that's people don't want to rock the boat, and that people really are afraid of the stripes, and they really want that promotion and that pay raise, people who join the military now? Unless they are very desperate for money, are part of the dying breed of enlisted men that just want to serve their country, but a lot of the officers? There's a reason there's so many ext generals in all the different military contracting companies.. And the other issue with things like the military or the Catholic Church in terms of sexual assaults? Is the fact that for the reputation of the organization, a lot of the assaults just cause the victim to be discharged, and they usually just move around the perpetrator, it's the culture of the cover up that really causes the damage and it's the culture of the cover up that is unique to these sorts of tightly knits organizations
