From Amanda Marcotte. Only moments ago:

"When reading the comments of angry men on threads about domestic violence or rape, never forget: Abusers and rapists have computers."


"I don't know why the presumption that an anon man who minimizes violence against women couldn't be a perp persists, but it's stupid."

You Betcha! Couldn't have said it better myself!
 
Since I know what this thread will turn into, here is something I have been meaning to post for a while:

Meet The Predators

Have fun! I purposefully did not ban anyone so that the monsters can expose their faces yet again.

Enjoy your weekends!

WTF????

Can you imagine anyone here ever posting this in response to a man? She's a writer. That's her profession. Sharing opinions.

Wow.

Well, let's see what else comes out in this wash.

I had no idea who she was that's why I looked her up. There are WAY too many men who have an overabundence of opinions and aren't afraid to share them when they should just shut up be they sports talking heads or political talking heads. You can look up Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith of ESPN for starters.

I'm reading this woman's comments about the Duke rape case (for example) and I'd say they're not the normal comments you hear. That's what stood out to me. That's what got my attention. I called them opinions, I should have been specific about what I was referring too.

I used to hate watching Bayless & Smith, but now I love that show. Most entertaining show on ESPN currently.

Really? Fair enough. To me they are the epitome of what ESPN has become (which I hate) which is who can scream the loudest and have the most controversial opinion. Obviously a lot of people like them or they wouldn't be on the air but hearing those guys go on another self righteous rant is like nails on a chalkboard to me.

So it was someone you knew!
Did you ever seek counseling, in order to help yourself?

A hard one to read. If it doesn't make you mad and make you feel that there is work to be done, then there is something very wrong with you, not with me.

And yes, Rebecca Solnit is another woman with opinions and a desire to share them. Oh Madone!

Looks like Darla just took a hit to her troll rating. This post proves this is a troll thread. I am sure Grind will either give her a mulligan or find some loophole to protect her.
