Also: Watch the clip again. his daughter’s faces go from happiness and pride in their father for speaking on their behalf to abject horror when he tries to attack Nassar and gets violently thwarted.

Fuck you. You sick fuck.

Gross!

This is what most people commenting are missing. He didn’t think of them, he thought of getting his feelings out, his completely understandable rage.

I can’t imagine what this moment was like for those girls. reliving the horrors they went through with that monster and now thinking they just lost their father as well.

The last two comments from the father as he was being led out of the courtroom really struck me . . . when he asked the officers what they would do in his situation, and when he shouted to the person off camera that she hadn’t lived through his hell. I cannot imagine his anguish. But this can’t be tolerated, even if…

You got it. While I do understand his frustration and powerlessness as a father, I guess I would have seen this as a more “reasonable” reaction had he lost his daughters as he would have nothing to lose. Part of being a parent is understanding you need to take care of yourself to take care of your kids.
Getting…

Just a guess, but I wager the people laughing were people who had been in the court room constantly, possibly even other parents of victims. There’s a certain macabre desensitization that takes place over the course of violent cases.

I really wish he had left it there. And while I understand his pain and what he was trying to do, it’s just male aggression (justified or not) that serves to traumatize everybody and continue Nassar’s victimization of these women and girls. I know it’s not the popular opinion, but his daughters looked horrified when…

The sheriff on top near his head, whispering anything he can to help console this poor father. He likely wishes he could let him loose. Just doing everything he can to try to help this guy get through it.

I thought the bailiffs did a great job there. They controlled him, but talked to him in soothing tones to calm him down. Honestly, it looked like they fully understood his reaction.

Your Elon Musk fanfic is top notch. I need to you to basically devote yourself to this full time.

Hurt to watch. Reminded me of my dad: a union guy who probably poured every minute and every cent into his daughters so they could what they loved. I can’t fathom the pain he feels to have had his trust betrayed.

Before scrolling I thought you were being a little judgmental. After...

in fairness to the rest of the court, his daughters next to him are chuckling at his “5 minutes alone” request and are smiling until he takes off at Nassar.

Maybe he secretly bankrolled Westworld to see how the public would react to his (then preliminary) plans.

Here is an image that is ideally suited to slowly scrolling down the screen. Starting from his head, at first I was like “well, sure” but then came the finale...

Lol what? That’s bonkers. Given the circumstances there’s no way this dude is getting hit hard for this.

I was fully ready to go off on Khloe because celebrity pets often have a way of disappearing suddenly but I didn’t realize her black lab Gabanna was 14 years old! I remember her getting the puppy which means I have been vested in this family for a REALLY.LONG.FUCKING.TIME.

This is... a look. This is the look I sport when I’m running to my car in the morning because I forgot a bag of groceries (and I’m praying my neighbours don’t look out their windows).

I watched the clip and it quite honestly brought tears to my eyes. His horror and rage and frustration was so damn raw. I just can’t even imagine how he feels.
