You may argue all _you_ like.  This is how it is for me.  

I do not beat my wife.  I do not attack women.  Yet you want me to pay for 
your "victimization".  You are certainly more responsible for what happened 
to you than I am.  You chose who you would associate yourself with, not me. 
If you like lashing out and attacking the freedom of innocent people, why 
shouldn't we respond by questioning the judgement of a woman who chooses to 
marry someone who will abuse her.  Why should I pay for your stupidity?  

Does this seem rough?  Well, I am tired of "victims" who have it out for me 
because I'm a male.  If restrictions of freedom are needed because some women 
become so besotted that they can't smell a skunk, perhaps the restrictions 
should be upon those who commit the error in judgement rather than the 
completely innocent and faultless. 

I am innocent.  You are attacking my freedom and my happiness.  Perhaps you 
have something in common with your attacker.  C68 is an act of terrorism and 
violence to me.  Vicarious violence by people like you.
