I found some here. It makes me sick to read them—he has so many excuses for being controlling! Surprise surprise.
What’s telling to me is that his girlfriend had the bathroom door locked. If you get up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, do you even close the door let alone lock it?
I know Clinton supporters are in a hurry for Sanders to GTFO, but as a progressive I feel like this is a best case scenario, the two of them collaborating on the actual policy platform.
That discussion is for the consideration of non-violent offenders. Not for rapists. Is your comment a joke? Am I missing something?
Just in time for the latest reasons to lose faith in innate human kindness — the FTS (Fuck This Shit) Bunker is now open for the summer season. The a/c is working this year, and utilities are once again being unknowingly donated by local churches and mosques.
This person is doing a ton of projecting and rationalizing. Her reasons for that are pretty obvious. I suggest dropping it.
Are you defending your abusive partner in a thread about partner abuse?
Amber’s previous partner has said it was not DV and that the cops, whom she speculates were homophobic, arrested Amber needlessly. No charges were filed against Amber. So, no, that incident has nothing to do with anything and is proof of nothing. Nice try though.
We get almost all our oil from ourselves, Canada, and south of the border. Relatively little of our oil comes from the Middle East. If we bought nothing from them, they would just sell it to the French, Chinese, Indians, and so on.
Hey, I don’t know you and I’m sure you are the expert on your own situation, but I saw your comment and I had to say: remorse/sadness/mortification are commonly the reaction of an abuser. It’s actually fairly uncommon for there not to be an immediate change in the mood of the relationship. Tension building, abuse,…
Thank you for this space. I just keep falling in love with you as a journalist more and more.
Bestiality is not amusing. I work in a shelter, and while most of our cruelty cases are run-of-the-mill, every once in a while there is a case of a dog being sexually abused.And there’s no guarantee that the abuser hasn’t also assaulted children, adults, the elderly, etc.
“And I don’t know why they didn’t give my show to a woman. That would have been fine.”
This quote makes me so fucking mad. “solely based on the reporting of my case.” Sure as hell not as a result of your own actions though!
The reason why this so often works is that we’re institutionalized to believe that rape is a crime committed by monsters. So if you can convince the judge that you’re not a monster, you’re just a kid who made a bad choice, you can make him question if you’re even really a rapist at all.
He’s like the kid who used to show up at the schoolyard in authentic Jordans and Gary Payton jersey, yet as soon as you passed it to him, he dribbled off his foot.
...saying there was no probably cause...
