That was my reading of it as well. In a lot of ways he’s right but then he ruins it.

That’s not the point. The State is supposed to be impartial and above revenge. That’s why we have a system, as opposed to lynch mobs and bibilical retribution.

Yeah but the reason he hid it was because he probably saw how the clueless PCcrowd reacted to the news that Cumberbatch’s ancestors owned slaves - i.e demanding that he apologise and acting as if he were in any way responsible for the actions of his ancestors from several centuries ago. I think people should…

Yeah I don’t get it either. But obviously the voyeur thing is a fetish lots of people have.

Ouch. But didn’t you also have to basically learn how to have sex? How long was it before you were able to enjoy intercourse?

He looks like Robbie Williams with goofier hair.

Except he’s worth waaaay more than she is so I doubt he’s doing it for the money. I think he’s doing it to be a controlling douchewad.

Rue is one of my favourite characters in the books and I remember bawling like a baby when she died. I don’t remember exactly how she is described in the books but from how she’s described I just assumed she was a POC.

This is quite possibly the best thing I have ever read on Jezebel. You should quit and go work for Vice.

Agree. But these are (were, at the time) two 14 year-old girls, in Texas, who think it’s perfectly normal to hear racist jokes around them. What does that tell you about the world they grew up in? Kids don’t become racist out of thin air. What do you think the adults around them are like. Everyone here is stuck on the…

No offence but there is so much ignorance and misinformation about the UN. The UN only has as much power as its Member States give it. The Human Rights Council can adopt resolutions but then it’s up to Member States to implement them. The UN isn’t a world government or works police and it can’t act without…

This. And he's amazeballs live.

That ring is so vulgar and tacky it makes Lady Gaga’s look demure and understated in comparison. Heart shaped diamonds are ooglay.

On a shallow note, that is an awesome cover photo and she looks fantastic. I’m so glad FLOTUS stuck to a figure hugging sheath instead of one of her disastrous high-waisted a-line dresses with a giant belt all the way up under her boobs that she so loves.

Seriously. The Goop-hatred by other women is nothing short of ridiculous. Yes, she’s rich. Yes, she’s “out of touch” but you know what? She doesn’t claim to be anything else. She’s even said in interviews that she’s not going to go around pretending she’s living on 25k a year. She’s rich and she’s not apologizing for…

Yes, I admit that’s speculation on my part based on the video and how he just up and punched her like he was swatting a fly away and how unfazed he seemed by the fact that he’d just knocked his fiancée unconscious. And based on the fact that abuse in a relationship usually progresses from emotional abuse to…

LOL nice try but no I didn’t. If you read my initial comment in response to (Not that) Bill O’Reilly, I said that yes, there’s a possibility that she’s forgiven her husband, wants to facilitate his return to football and they’re working on their issues. But I said it’s also possible that she hasn’t because the truth…

LOL I don’t know what world you live in but having known victims of domestic abuse and given the absolute nonchalance with which he threw that punch, it’s highly unlikely that that was the first time he was violent or physically abusive to her. Get real.

We don’t know that though. Sure, it’s a possibility. But she could also be totally browbeaten and submissive from years of abuse (because you know that punch wasn’t the first time he hit her).

I don’t think anyone is saying how she should act. Just that obviously the fact that she chose to stay with him and married him and is standing by him makes a lot of people uncomfortable, and rightfully so. Is she doing it because his abuse (and you know that punch wasn’t the first time he hit her) has diminished her…
