To the companies that dropped him. Don’t be obtuse. It mattered to them. They made a decision. He’s paying the price for filming his relationship with an employee.

I love the guys who are acting like he was fucking their employee and they have a stake in his company.

If she gets mad at some point in the next 40 years, we can just chalk it up to playing a stupid game and winning the stupid prize. Happens to WAY worse guys than him. A lot of those guys who fuck their hot sexutaries are married and have kids and shit like that. Does he have a wife and kids who will suffer along with him?

If not, then is it really our business if the only person he could have hurt is himself?

Fucking your hot employee isn't criminal is it? It is a civil action between him and her and probably a few other girls I would guess, but that is a guess.

it doesn't seem like he had a problem with it (total speculation, but seems reasonable).

Him and Jade both need to sue the fuck out of the guy who released the video

I understand this fully. Smaller forums have fewer site resources than Arf so they need to be more attentive in their distribution.

That is quite the assumption, and doesn't seem reasonable AT ALL.
There are very very few fathers who would be perfectly okay with this.

Anyone who saw his cringe worthy Instagram harem isn't surprised that he was this much of a horn dog fool.

I'm not outraged. I'd buy parts or a Benelli off the guy or take a shooting class from him, guy's fast as fuck. But he's a super dumbass.

It was 16, not 15, no need to embellish...

It's been mentioned here and other online sites, social media that they were a couple, and even lived together at one point.  If her and her old man were somewhat close, I'm guessing he knew about her relationship status and since we haven't seen any of this topic before, it doesn't seem like he had a problem with it (total speculation, but seems reasonable).  I'm sure he didn't (or wouldn't) be crazy about what's in the video, but we're still talking about 2 adults and their private affairs.  Plus, being a dad myself, I'd rather be dealing with some kinky private talk than dealing with someone who's doing/dealing drugs, is physically abusive, steals, etc.  Sex with an old fat guy didn't kill her, she's just fine...and onto her next old guy

No, fucking your employee isn't criminal but it is poor conduct especially if said employee has just turned 18 and is someone you've known since they were a minor.

That's how the creep of the ages of the people involved happen. When the incorrect ages are quoted often enough, more people keep clinging to them.

Let's remind again, she was born February 6th 1998, met him in 2014 when she was 16 and he was 45. She was not 14 or 15 as claimed in this thread, she was 16. There is no evidence that he has “known her” in any capacity except meeting her once since any time before 2016. He knew her father before 2014 though.

The claims of various interactions (teaching to shoot, grooming etc.) in this thread have been without any attribution and most writers have acknowledged that such claims are their theories and inferences from just the video.

The video was recorded in the summer of 2017 when she was 19. Not 18 or “just turned 18”, but 19.

Anyone who deducts years from the actual dates is not interested in the facts and fine with making their very own creepy version of the scandal in their own head.

Interesting post to say the least.  Sorry, i am drinking as I try to navigate this post tonight.  I have known Taran for 6 years and Jade for 3.  They were dating a few years ago and lived together.  They have since separated, but were mostly a fun couple who were goofy about movies and had a lot of fun shooting together and training people at his range.  As creepy as it may seem from the outside view of the few minutes of this much longer video that has been posted, I am glad none of my dumb "messing around with my girlfriend" videos have been posted.  They may not be viewed as creepy, but most of the time her pants came further down than Jade's, and it usually led to things you guys would definitely be upset with.
Jade lived at his house and was by his side all the time.  I may not have gotten to see all the all the aspects of their relationship, but it would really suck if someone had released my nonsense on video to the public.
Maybe I wouldn't call it Precious, but it would probably seem bad to a third party.
All of the companies in the gun world use talent until they see a better opportunity, or until they are threatened.  Benelli used Taran for publicity as if he was a Bikini girl; whatever increases sales is good.
I hope he picks up some old beat-up semi-auto Remington or Mossberg shotgun and wins the next world championships to show that Benelli isn't as important to winning as being a great shooter is.
There are tons of good scopes and guns and gear to use, and it might be nice for some of us to see someone win with regular gear in decent condition that wasn't free.  
He did tons of advertising for the sponsors he had, and I think sponsors should pay a lot more to the people who help them stay relevant in the new world of stupid YouTube videos.
I hope Taran endures this event, that allowed his superfans see that he is a normal crazy guy who somehow gets girls to surround him and sometimes enjoys it, much like the old rock stars did.
I almost want to say that old quote, maybe from the Bible about he who has not sinned may cast the first stone, but I don't know it well enough.  
I like the thought provoking new age ideas about workplace conduct, but I don't think this video shows much more than Taran and his GF messing around.
I may be yet be proven wrong, but Jade staying quiet and still not considering Taran a predator, as she dates yet another 50 yr old famous gun guy, kind of reinforces my thought stream.
What you think of as creepy, may indicate that some girls like it creepy.

According to her, She met Taran at 16 (and was clearly in awe of him) and Taran called her dad at 18 to give her a job. Then shortly thereafter he was filming her while asking to see her precious and checking her lube status for a black clients cock.

LOL.

Y’all feel free to continue to white knight a predator.
