Love is a BATTLEFIED, by Pat Benetar
We have all tripped on a few landmines in our lives and then justified it as being human. And there is nothing wrong with that, except when you forgot about your own errors in judgment. Do we need a remembrance to keep us straight or do we just pile on and let the chips fall where they may?
Now, there are abusers out there and many are women!
{. Everyone quotes the statistics given by the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence: 1 in 4 women will be victims of domestic violence at some point in their lives, 1.3 million women are assaulted by their partner every year, 85% of domestic violence reported is against women. However, in a conflicting survey taken by the CDC in 2010, it was found that 40% of the victims of severe, physical domestic violence are men}
Okay ladies, we need to gloss over that and for sure men do not want to seem like wimps but there is a time when someone is going to jail and if you deny that you were abused after being abused, then it could be said that not all attacks are being reported!
As usual the media loves to stir up the hornet’s nest and then leave a pile of manure in it’s wake. And sadly, the issues are buried as the next best story avails itself or some development where more accused surface and so the claims go on and on and on.
Men, as well as women, are victimized by violence. Sexual abuse and rape create substantial physical and psychological harm to male victims and perpetuate the cycle of violence. Men and boys are less likely to report the violence and seek services due to the following challenges: the stigma of being a male victim, the perceived failure to conform to the macho stereotype, the fear of not being believed, the denial of victim status, and the lack of support from society, family members, and friends. This according to the National Coalition to Domestic Violence.

So my friends there you have it. People like that idiot James Brown (the announcer) is just as guilty and pathetic as the NFL and other media who purport to be about women and knowingly commit this felonious rendition of so-called social justice!
Of course we expect an open mind when we fail. Presumably because ours was not so bad, not really. You don’t know me! So, it goes. Then a scandal breaks and the media feeds the feeding frenzy by storming off stage in a fit or rage and letting you know where they stand.
But there is a letter missing. A letter that adds clarity and truthfulness and is a humbling word that is fast becoming a desiccated symbol of a metaphorical and geopolitical hell . Bereft of logic and reliant upon emotions, the best and the brightest (self-aggrandizement at it’s worst) declare to us unwashed, trailer trash adults as intellectual deadbeats.
I want to buy the vowel ‘E”. And adding this one small letter is to completely reframe humanity as more ‘humane’. Fed by a narcissistic media and spin-meisters our society resembles the Catholic Crusades or Islamic Jihad. But the most pernicious fly-in-the-ointment is ‘Political Correctness’. By using this tactic the vocabulary becomes constricted like the Orwellian language of INGSOC where more is less or less is more depending on the current translation of the words. Or the King’s English?
To many, the News is a TV dinner full of political preservatives and false calls to justice and action. They are probably the most guilty, the Ken-dolls waxing euphemistically at over their own cant and hyperbole. As a person with a severe anxiety disorder, finding calm and relative bliss can be a chore. Now couple those obstacles that everyone else shares is beyond me.
What Tiger Woods did is none of your business aside from the smarmy details and since I do not care about such things, it is of no interest to me and it shouldn’t to you. Find a hobby, pick your nose or find your Ouija Board. Don’t tell me they deserve it because they are celebrities. I am no fan of celebrities but I do not get carping on others what a lot of you have done. Yes, some of you do these things or worse and that includes a few woman as well.
I have never understood the logic behind that or worrying about Janay Rice unless you care about her predicament and help her now that Ray Ray does not have a job. That’s none of your concern either but a matter which involves their family and they have the right to privacy. They did not sign a waiver to make a lot of money thus forfeiting their rights to a bunch of truncated vigilantes with severe boundary issues.
Ray did very wrong and needs to learn that he can never do such things and then gets . To say it is all abuse of women smells of sticking your hooked nose and split tongue into matters which have no bearing on your own life. And anyway, who are beating these drums? The feminists see a chance to intervene with the end game being only their opinions. Cause and effect but the underlying issues are painted over with peace signs and slogans.
The dogmas are so entrenched and accepted that it seems any aspersion cast upon Republicans is true and means you hate the poor, favor the rich, etc. One of those bits of hyperbole would be that a person is greedy if they are a Young Republican. This is a common depiction and is accepted.

People have to stop piling on to people for sport or a good story. Many players still support him and the fans who returned their jerseys did so, because they can get a new one. Hopefully their is a commissioner’s dunce cap for falling prey to the pressures of hypocritical genuflecting idiots.
Now let’s look at some things that go entirely not commented on. Look at any young lady/woman who makes it big and you get the eventual playboy cover. Many of them will be featured in a movie in short shorts or panties then are slain by some sociopath or horny alien. The same media that harps on treating women right, but do you EVER see them doing anymore than that? No, never! The best you get is still all about them. (The media).
Wait that guy hit a horse. I should protest protesting is cool.
And as far as younger females go, they are off-limits until they reach 18 (The Olsen Twins, Molly Cyrus) and just about legal team becomes fair game. The song Plush by Stone Temple Pilots depicts the sense of urgency to deflower purity and to scandalize, so is it any mystery that the message gets out and it is largely media of some sort that perpetuates virginity is some kind of weirdness that MUST be slain. The confusing scene of sexuality and violence seem to correlate into a seamless package of adolescent dynamite.
These same architects of depravity will deny any part of the malaise that helped to foment. Of course they could blame us or blame Ray Rice for his stupidity but you sure want to bury him and his career. The unintended consequence is family security but all of that is out the window now because liberal progressives are unrelenting and are mission first. The party of tolerance is anything but. The thing with Adrian Peterson is even more personal as his reputation will never recover! This is NOT about football, this is about cleaning your own attics and basements.
Some of the fervor does not match the rhetoric nor offers any solutions other than castrating all men and do away with all sports. Yeah that’s you. You have no suggestions outside scarlet letters and editorial denouncements. Editorials means ever having to say you are sorry, even though you might be. James Brown of the NFL. Do not condescend to me or other men. Those bad guys (gals) deserve redemption, even if you do not agree.
Outside of Christmas and perhaps Thanksgiving they help the needy but do they do this behind the scenes or with a microphone and a fake smile? No, because this is a playground where actors and media dress up like us and pretend to be us. Only, we know it is a ruse. Like an errant preacher, police officer or a teacher, they are all about chances. Chances they did not give to others! Their misfortune is not any sort of vindication sought, but that their perceived holiness is not assailed.
Janay’s life was miserable at times but how could I know that unless she said so? And those people who are falsely accused remember the gallows of judgment that is worn as white sheets endorsed by grand-standing politicians. A chief of police with dozens if keyed up rabble-rousers with hopes of becoming the next big thing.
Erstwhile Barbies with faces meant for Halloween and the sad slow march into an old folks home where the deer and the antelope roam, with visions of scrapbooks and compliments lost in favor of denizen of new generations. The pretty little womanlettes garnering the drools and slanders of a hungry set of ravenous coffee-stained dentures and a deer rack in your garage. This is the backdrop to the great witch-hunts. Only you you .
George W. Bush did not serve a fake turkey to troops but that Urban Myth was grudgingly admitted to. With the media they do it with roaming bands of rich, out of touch sociopaths with cameras and an agenda. Stop the hate!!!
I love that speech and admire the kind words about President George W. ush and if for no other reason, because we should respect the office and their decisions and stop trying to ruin each other. Because in the end, we all fall short and my attempt is to get people to stop being ruthless to each other. Diversity is gift. Trust me on that.
