I hear she is recovering nicely and for whatever they are worth, our best wishes go out to her, her family and all brave young girls across the world still fighting for what should be the most basic of rights.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For some reason, I&#8217;ve seen a rash of domestic violence cases against women in the newspapers lately that has me quiet nauseated.\u00a0 From Hal Quin, a former high ranking NFL Executive &amp; now Dallas Soccer Team Exec who decided a trip to NYC was a good time to allegedly <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nypost.com\/p\/news\/local\/manhattan\/sock_her_exec_Yy9Pa0KTdeVxaA1tSwVMeN\" target=\"_blank\"><em><strong>pummel his wife<\/strong><\/em><\/a> (yet, she neglected to press charges).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">To the poor young lady in the Lower East Side of NYC who was literally butchered to death by\u00a0 knives used to actually butcher livestock by her ex-boyfriend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenwichtime.com\/news\/article\/Man-sentenced-in-murder-of-former-Greenwich-woman-4034134.php\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Raul Barrera<\/strong><\/a>. I guess Raul decided if he couldn&#8217;t have her, no one would and she would suffer like an animal in the process. He left her barely clinging to life, hopelessly dying in a pool of blood in one of the most horrific cases of domestic violence I&#8217;ve ever heard of.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">They say Raul was off his meds, the excuse used by anyone who commits a crime of any magnitude this day. Not to downplay the seriousness of depression and mental illness, but if it&#8217;s used as a crutch to brutally slaughter people, I have no sympathy.\u00a0 If he wasn&#8217;t so delusional that he picked on an another big hulking guy, NFL Linebacker or MMA fighter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I always notice so many of the &#8220;mentally ill&#8221; or bullies on the streets of NYC never f&#8217;cked with me or guys in general, they always f&#8217;d with girls or old ladies they could easily handle. Maybe some of them (certainly not all) are not so delusional after all?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Raul was not one of these poor on the streets souls anyway. He was a PR Executive. Rot in hell Raul.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Unfortunately domestic violence is typically a 2 way sickness. One person has to say enough. Otherwise, it will continue and someone very well may die.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">It pisses me off to no end. There is almost nothing that makes me want to kick someone&#8217;s ass than a man beating a women, or an adult abusing a child, or anyone in power abusing someone less in power.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">I hate liars, I hate thieves, but I hate cowards the most. And the world is full of cowards, I assure you. But there are different degrees of cowards. Some abuse animals, some children, some spouses, some complete strangers. Some abuse physically, others emotionally and others (bankers, con men, etc.) are just sociopaths. Most are harmless, all are spineless.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">They <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dontdragmedown.com\" target=\"_blank\"><em><strong>DRAG ME DOWN<\/strong><\/em><\/a> and I&#8217;m sick of it.
