Gruss I don't have to build a profile, it's been done. Please refer to the links I posted. As for irresponsible, I think that's really rich coming from someone that says it doesn't matter whether the woman wanted to die, because she married the dude and should have known better if he was abusive. That statement, by the way, reveals an appalling ignorance of the issues involved, which I could overlook if you were openminded, but you are not.
Hello, I am not a court of law. I am allowed to have opinions. You know what they are. If you think they are irresponsible, I think you aren't thinking very hard. Oh well. I don't have time for this.
