Congress Calls To Shutdown Cadet Shipping And Says The Maritime Industry is Toxic John Konrad

Honestly, this is one of the worst responses I have ever read. This captain is refusing to acknowledge the real problem, and instead, is choosing to make jokes of it. Instead of rooting out the real issue (RAPISTS AND SEXUAL ASSAULTERS!!), he denies anything all together. He is choosing not to help upbring the next generation of mariners and do his actual job. Turn his back on legal matters of HIS crew and HIS responsibility. This is disgusting. What’s more disgusting is you making light of the situation. Instead of entertaining this “Captain’s” weighing of his shitty crew, you should entertain who you keep company with. The audacity to post this with everything that’s going on is nauseating. Continuing with your other posts of “ensure[ing] the safety of the crew…”, the cadets are the crew. They put in just as much work if not more because they are striving to work AND LEARN. AND maybe instead of removing a temptation, your should remove the problem. You “sir” are a little man and deserve nothing. In the way your are speaking, I would imagine you as one of these persons who “grab the ass of every girl (or boy) who walks by”. It’s simple in my mind, if you’re one to hide away and fix your problems by being a child about it, then you’re part of the problem. EG] What does one do when their small and young and INCOMPETENT child continues to throw a toy on the ground? The parents takes it away. Seems like this is right up your speed. I agree, identifying a rapist can be difficult. But, how about instead of thinking like an amateur, we as an industry and group of people should punish those who have done wrong. The amount of stories that are swept under the rug or brushed off the shoulder help to escalate this problem. An example must be made and held strongly industry wide. Your thoughts, your personality, you as a person is disgusting. I can only hope that you really think about what you have said and find insight. I imagine you will just respond to this with more bullsh*t, but hey, you can’t fix stupid. Continue to be a little man if you must, or choose to open your eyes.
