Once again, the cleanup has begun at Chez Broad for the impending arrival of the Snidge; this time, she's bringing along her baby brudder, and we're going to see this massive hunk o' musical genius at Park West Saturday night, to which I've never been. Save for Roger Clyne this summer, it's my first real concert in a long time, so I'm pumped. And thankfully, the crib still is in pretty good shape from when she was up here for the races in September. Could it be that I'm becoming less of a human pig?
(snicker)
In the meantime, I'm taking a break from picking up, and I check the competition's Web site to see what they've got going; it's something I do to a) see if we've been scooped and b) compare stories with the reporter I covered something with. So I scroll down to the columnist section, and I see this one columnist has a new one up about an incident that happened last Wednesday near East Chicago where this pigfucker named George Soltis made a couple homeade bombs and took his soon-to-be ex-wife Dora on the ride of her almost-death. By the grace of God, Dora was able to jump out of the moving vehicle, but not before pigfucker beat the will to live out of her with the ass-end of a .357. As well, pigfucker called Dora's son to tell him his plan to blow the two of them to kingdom come, and the boy was able to call police, who then found the two, arrested pigfucker and detonated the explosive devices.
[A side note: This all happened not more than five minutes from Chez Broad, and I DIDN'T HEAR A DAMN THING. I was home all night, too. And not drunk.]
Naturally, the event was front-page news with the requisite photos of a badly beaten Dora, so the columnist wrote about it and how yeah, it was great that Dora escaped from the pigfucker alive, but you know, she saw the signs that the guy was bad news. Why didn't she get out sooner!?? Or why did she go out for that one last dinner with him!?? And I thought to myself, "You know, [name redacted for not wanting to pimp out the competition, plus this guy's a jerk], methinks that you're spending too much time in the casinos observing people's behavior -- to which you devoted a whole column -- or you've forgotten the time you spent over in the Balkans covering the war, or you're just not getting a whole lot of real-life assignments, because you really don't have a clue, do you?"
Stockholm syndrome: people start to like their captors after awhile.
It's worse if someone has a romantic relationship and has spent many years together. (The couple was married for 6 years). He had 6+ years to mess with his soon-to-be ex-wife's mind.
All of these guys isolate their women and take away their independence. No money means they have to stay with the guy. Plus, no self-esteem cements the deal.
Soltis needs to go away for a long time. I wrote on my blog that he is the same as any other terrorist. He just works on a smaller scale with different goals.
Saying that someone should have left sooner is the same as saying that someone should have avoided getting robbed. Sure, sitting on the sidelines with 20/20 hindsight, everyone would be able to avoid all of life's problems.
Too bad the real world doesn't work that way all the time.
Indeed. And, in the words of Waymon Brown: "The question is never why the woman stays, because there's a million reasons why. The question is, WHY DOES HE BEAT HER?"
Morons ask "why does she stay?" Liberals ask "Why does he beat her?" I ask "Why did I only bring a hundred rounds of 357 mag? this will be over too fast!!" There NEVER IS AN ACCEPTABLE ANSWER TO "WHY DOES HE BEAT HER". IT IS IGNORANCE PERSONIFIED TO ASK THE QUESTION. KILL HIM. Jesus.
Broad, any guy shows up at your house, and starts wailing on you? I hope he likes pain, because I have a lot of it. Let me repeat. There is never an acceptible answer to the question "why does he beat her". There is never an acceptible answer to the question "why did someone not stop him from beating her" Any man who raises a hand to a woman (except, perhaps, by her specific request, and then only to provide arousal and not pain) has lost his right to humanity.
Sorry, I've seen this, and I do not tolerate it. Period. The world is not like this within the reach of my arm.
On a lighter note, your "Steal this Button" button has disapperated. This is is leaving a gaping hole in my lovely table design for my website. I require that you fix it immediately.

Well, I'll be. Wonder why that is. Of course, you're asking ME to figure out why?
And Og: I understand what you're saying about the whole liberal thing of asking "Why." But when Waymon posed the question, he wasn't making excuses for his or anyone else's behavior. In fact, I would dare say he didn't honestly care WHAT the reasons are, just that it's never the woman's fault (unless you're my sister -- oops, I'm talking out loud again, aren't I?)
LOL! Well, what I'm saying, is that from Ruth Bader Ginsburg who wants to lower the age of consent to 12, to the morons who are apologists for everyone else, if you find someone trying to "understand" unacceptible behavior (like, why 9/11 happened) it's most often a liberal. I'm not pointing at Waymon, and I suspect he'd agree with me.
And where your sister is concerned? Just sit back and watch her make her own hell. It will be more than fulfilling of your angst.
