How fucking far can you abdicate responsibility?!

"The woman caught on videotape repeatedly striking her 4-year-old daughter in the rear of a sport utility vehicle is due in court this afternoon. Despite admitting the beating and saying there was 'no excuse' for it, she's expected to plead not guilty to felony child battery charges."

Is the state of society so bad that this moron thinks she can admit to a heinous crime on NATIONAL FUCKING TELEVISION and STILL claim she is innocent in a court of law?

Hell yeah. If I'd realized my personal opinions on a case a thousand miles away and how it reflects on the way many people don't take responsibility for their actions were going to get me accused of being a mom-hater and a cold unsympathetic unfeeling bitch, I would have kept my mouth shut.

You realize I'm not out to get you (or anyone else I know), right?

Jeepers! Who called you that?!?

I'll beat em up!!!

We may be disagreeing, or whatever, but I'd never call you those things!

Whoever called you that is WAY out of line...

I think you posted while I was writing

Coincidence . . . I had been thinking about it all morning as the office watercoolers talked their way into a frenzy and the more I thought about it the more I wanted to write out what I was thinking.

Last time I checked my toes were fine.
