Wisconsin Lawmaker to Spousal Abuse Victims: If You Are Being Beaten, Just Remember the Things You Love About Your Husband

If you need any further proof that we are in the midst of a full-on patriarchal biblical-religious war on women, a Wisconsin lawmaker is happy to provide it.

According to Yahoo News, Wisconsin Rep. Don Pridemore helpfully suggests that, rather than divorcing an abusive spouse, you should try to remember the things you love about the guy while he is beating you up.

In Wisconsin -- yes, the same state where lawmakers have introduced a bill penalizing single mothers for being unmarried -- a Republican state representative has come out against divorce for any reason -- even domestic abuse.     Read more

Thank You,  Rep. Don Pridemore for reminding us women, once again--Why We All Should Vote Democrat.


 

Why Isn't the Gun Nut Lobby Saying Trayvon Martin Should Have Been Armed?

Now here's a good question:

Think about it. Every other situation in which an innocent person gets gunned down there is a cacophony of gun nuts screeching that if only this person had been armed he could have defended himself. It's been the basis of every concealed and open carry argument for the last couple of decades.

And yet, in this case, nothing. No impassioned appeals for loosening the gun laws so that ordinary Americans could go to the store in the evening to buy some candy and an iced tea without getting stalked and shot by some unhinged vigilante. No solemn op-eds about the dangers for average Americans when venturing unarmed into the streets of their own neighborhoods. No fiery speeches from Wayne LaPierre insisting that if only everyone in the neighborhood had been armed with submachine guns they could have run outside and started firing immediately upon hearing the screams for help. Nada. Why do you suppose that is?    Read more

Agreed--That Is Indeed a good question--excellent question--Superb question!!! After all, with any and every other shoot that made the news various gun people and the NRA would argue that if they were armed and ready to defend themselves; they would be alive to tell about it. BUT THIS TIME, they (NRA) are too busy defending the shooter than arming the victim--Trayvon Martin--WHY--OH WHY IS THAT SO????

Trayvon Martin Shooter 'Couldn't Stop Crying' After Shooting

After fatally shooting Trayvon Martin, Florida community watch captain George Zimmerman "couldn't stop crying,'' according to a family friend who spoke with him Saturday."After this started – the r...

The Out Cry for Justice must be working, because there is a growing backlash from NRA, FOX NEWS AND Apparently This Job Club as well.

This blogger does not buy this story. This story is full of holes. If this story was true--why did it take soooo very long for Zimmerman's friends to speak up???  IF Story is true, Why-Oh Why Have his friends and family started dressing him up???  This does not cover-up the fact that the only one who is alive to tell what happened. George Zimmerman--WHO STILL MUST BE ARRESTED-- WHO STILL SHOULD BE GIVEN A POLYGRAPH TEST--A POLYGRAPH TEST IN THIS SITUATION IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY--BECAUSE TRAYVON MARTIN IS TOO DEAD TO TELL HIS SIDE OF THE STORY.
