8. Those 100,000
Edited on Thu Sep-07-06 09:40 PM by gaspee
Those 100,00 Cops Clinton got on the streets through federal subsidies really weren't needed, huh?

I know there was a young girl involved as well, and I'm not dismissing her involvelment, but it's really hard for me to not despise males when I see stuff like this on a daily basis. Every day we see the assualts, the murders, the violence, the rapes. So, if the RW is so into profiling, why don't they profile all males, regardless of race or age.

Then I remember the good men that I know and I don't hate them all, but for a few knee-jerk seconds after I read a story like this, I think physical castration is a pretty good deterrent from acts like these in the future.

Most men have no idea what it's like to live with the constant threat of violence and sexual assault. I think that's why there are so many men who excuse other men, even on the left. 52% of the population has to worry how they'll get home after dark, get nauseaus when they have to walk by a group of leering or heckling men, etc.

It's inconceivable to me how human beings can treat another human being this way. Inconceivable.
