Similarly, any time a Muslim attacker turns out to have been abusive to his wife, it’s because he’s Muslim, not because domestic abuse is endemic in every society.

This is now how I respond to other white people. Because when a Muslim or black person or Hispanic person does something awful, they’re a terrorist, jihadist, etc., etc. When a white person does it, they’re mentally ill.
Right? Don’t blame this thing I’m doing nothing about, blame this other thing I’m trying to make worse.
Apparently, Muslims never suffer from mental health issues. When we do something bad, it’s entirely of our own volition. When a white person does something bad, it’s a defect in that otherwise pristine, gorgeous brain of theirs.
“This isn’t a guns situation,” Trump said as he directed the blame at the behavior of a “very deranged individual [with] a lot of problems over a long period of time.”

I’m a little scared this will dox me, but oh well. I’ve been meaning to post this story for years, but I always lose the nerve around Halloween. I generally don’t like thinking too much about it.
Well that’s why his current wife was shipped here in a crate with air holes.
he doesn’t want a partner - he wants an accessory, a bauble, a thing he can look at other people and say, look at this thing that i have and you don’t.
