I also moderate a support list for these
 women.  I have nothing but the greatest contempt for men who
 treat women this way even if it is just in a threat over the
 internet.
 Amelia

Violence against anyone is bad.

For too long, so called "women's groups" support policies that promote
a societal mindset that considers women "weak"; "helpless" and "victims."

So called "women's rights" groups act in contradiction. On one hand they
claim "women are equal - women are capable of anything" They argue women
can be fighter pilots and combat soldiers. On the other hand they also complain
that women are helpless victims...they must be protected from the mean men.
They are too helpless to escape abusive relationships.

This insidious and destructive mindset encourages women to be victims, to
rely on "Orders of Protection", "Shelters", etc.

Women must be encouraged to empower themselves and to take responsibility
for their actions and relationships. Too many times I have witnessed women
who intentionally have relationships with dysfunctional men - over and over.
They go from one "abusive" relationship to another.

The best advice for women: "Stop having children with abusive, immature
men." Stop relying on "Orders of Protection" and "Shelters."

Instead take a course on self defense and buy a gun.

  The Real Story of Rosa Parks

I have been out most of this week so today is the first
chance I have had to go over this situation with the alleged
failure to use a disclaimer.  The above was at the beginning
of the post by Kindred Spirit in addition to the "FYI" in
the subject matter.  I believe this was far more than
adequate as a disclaimer.  Those of you who attacked her and
stated that she was personally making the comments contained
in the article, name calling, etc. are 'way out of line.
Your usual attempts to silence anybody not in agreement with
you display your little agenda. I wonder if Kris really
wants you to decimate his list for him while he is trying to
promote the book, etc.

NESSIE, as for your threats to "hurt" the poster, I cannot
tell you the contempt with which I now hold you.  I have
been doing volunteer work with battered women the last three
years.  Yesterday afternoon, I went to court with one as the
organization with which I am associated, Hope Place,
assists women in getting out of relationships with and away
from men who think exactly as you said you do in the second
post to Kindred Spirit, the one where you will "hurt" her if
she insults one of your friends, etc.

That excuse if not right after "she made me do it" is in the
top 5 you abusers use.  NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO "HURT"
ANOTHER PERSON EXCEPT IN SELF DEFENSE.  Not even you,
Nessie. Do you still have your radio show?  Have  you shared
with your sponsors your right to hurt people?  If not, why
not and if so, do they approve?

So based on your logic and belief system that one hurts
those who say/post/think things of which one does not
approve or deems insulting, what if, just for example, I
find your constantly calling people who are my friend or
those for whom I have regard "Nazi, bigoted, racist" when I
know you are lying, I would be entitled to forward your
posts to my two former classmates in the San Francisco (and
one in San Diego) who could, in turn, pass them all around
until somebody decided they believed as you do and had the
right to hurt you.

JUNE, I was surprised that you remained silent while Nessie
threatened to hurt another poster but after reading your
remarks concerning Super Bowl Sunday, apparently you are
into this men hurting women thing, too.  I wish you could
see some of the women who arrive in the Huntsville shelter,
which is totally inadequate.  I have had two in my home
briefly when there was not room at the shelter but it is
always a frightening thing as these men with the right to
hurt women may find us.  They have to stay inside, away from
windows and cannot use the phone, lie down in the backseat
of my car under a blanket to get to the house.  I have to
lock a gate to my driveway, another to my yard and a third
to my immediate back yard and entrance, etc., a whole series
of required safe guards to even offer these women shelter as
all too often these men who "hurt" women find them and kill
or injure others to get to the object of their abuse.

Whether or not it is SuperBowl Sunday when these things
happen, go to the DOJ website on the Violence Against Women
Act section and read how 4,000 women are killed every year
by men who think just like this, that they have the "right"
to hurt if their friends are insulted, their dinner is cold,
the kids are noisy or whatever. Often they claim they only
meant to "hurt" the woman and express their surprise at how
easily she was killed.  Only 200-300 men are killed by
domestic violence during a year so spare me the "men are
abused. too" routine.  Heard it.  Lots.  Seldom applies.
This has been a cause on which I have spent a great deal of
my time and effort over the last three years and it is very
dear to my heart.  I also moderate a support list for these
women.  I have nothing but the greatest contempt for men who
treat women this way even if it is just in a threat over the
internet.

Re: [CTRL] Disclaimers and Men who think they have a right to hurt Women

2001-01-27 Thread Nessie

-Caveat Lector-

NESSIE, as for your threats to "hurt" the poster, 


I did no such thing. I merely defined the conditions under which I
would hurt the poster (or anybody else, for that matter). I did this by
once again restating the by now well known fact that I require people in
my physical presence to treat me and my friends with respect. That's how
I live my life. If you don't like it, too bad. If you don’t like us,
keep it to yourself and go somewhere else. 



I cannot  tell you the contempt with which I now hold you. 


Like I care.




I have  been doing volunteer work with battered women the last three
years. 


Good for you. Now let's get back to the topic. We're not talking about
battered women here. We're not even talking about women. We’re talking
about pixels on a screen.

What on earth makes you think the "Kindred Spirit" is a woman? It is
every bit as likely that "Kindred Spirit" is a man, a committee, a
literary character, or an Artificial Intelligence subroutine. There is
simply no way to tell.

Consider the context. This is NOT in person, face to face. This is the
internet. People regularly assume multiple personas here. It's the norm.
For all you know for sure, I myself am a woman. Just because I say I am
not proves nothing. It is also equally likely that I myself am  a
committee, a literary character, or an Artificial Intelligence
subroutine. You don’t know. You can’t know.

So, not knowing what "Kindred Spirit" is, or for that matter what you
are, I restate my position. This applies to everybody, male, female,
animal and machine. I don't care what you think, what you say when I'm
not present, or what you say on the internet. It's nothing but a bunch
of pixels on a screen. It's not worth getting upset about.  

But if you track me down, and come into my real world physical presence,
you are going to have to play by my rules just like everybody else does
when they are in my physical presence. Those rules are simple. I enforce
them vigorously: 

  (1.) Do not attempt to harm me or any of my friends. 

  (2.) Show respect. 

Otherwise I'll hurt you. It’s as simple as that. 

If you are a woman, I'll let you insult me and only get insults back.
I’m pretty good at insults. They’ll hurt plenty. Hell, I'll even let you
swing on me first, once and only once. I won't let you pull a gun. Pull
a gun and I’ll treat you like I’d treat anybody else who pulls a gun.

Men I cut even  less slack. If you're a man, don't even look like you're
thinking about hurting me. It's the wrong move. It will precipitate a
preemptive strike. And if you pull a gun, I'll kill you on the spot.
Promise.  Insult me to my face, insult my friends in front of me,

 I have been out most of this week so today is the first
 chance I have had to go over this situation with the alleged
 failure to use a disclaimer.  The above was at the beginning
 of the post by Kindred Spirit in addition to the "FYI" in
 the subject matter.  I believe this was far more than
 adequate as a disclaimer.

The hell it is.  Stating that one doesn't know whether the contents of one's post is 
true or not does NOT say
anything about if one ENDORSES the contents of the post.  One can post something that 
one doesn't know is true
or not -- or perhaps even knows is a lie -- and still endorse the opinions expressed 
in the post.

I could forward a post to the list from someone who says they work for the government 
and have proof that
outer space aliens have taken over the highest offices of government.  I may know that 
the person who wrote
the original post is lying, and doesn't work for the gov't nor have any 'proof' of 
outerspace aliens working
in the government or at Burger King...but if I BELIEVE that outerspace aliens exist 
and have infiltrated our
gov't, then I may feel the issues raised in the post warrant forwarding it on, even 
tho I know it is a
'lie'...

And if I put a statement at the beginning saying "I don't know if this is true or 
not", it doesn't mean I
disagree with the contents of the post...


 Your usual attempts to silence anybody not in agreement with
 you display your little agenda. I wonder if Kris really
 wants you to decimate his list for him while he is trying to
 promote the book, etc.

Kris and I had a very pleasant phone chat the other day when he was in town, and he 
didn't express any opinion
that he thought anyone was 'decimating' the list...


 JUNE, I was surprised that you remained silent while Nessie
 threatened to hurt another poster but after reading your
 remarks concerning Super Bowl Sunday, apparently you are
 into this men hurting women thing, too.

You are an idiot.

Explain to me how perpetuating a LIE regarding the supposed rise in spousal abuse 
following the Super Bowl
furthers the cause of women in general, and abused women in particular?

Rather, if you encourage the spreading of the myth of Super Bowl causing increased 
spousal abuse, you do a
great disservice to the true cause of helping women, because you discredit the whole 
field.

As it said in the Super Bowl post, there is no logic in the sentiment that 
perpetuating the LIE regarding
Super Bowl = increased spousal abuse will do ANYTHING to further the cause of helping 
abused women.


 I wish you could
 see some of the women who arrive in the Huntsville shelter,
 which is totally inadequate.

You assume that I:

 a)  have not worked at abuse shelters myself, and

 b)  that I myself have not been a victim of abuse, and

 c)  that I don't currently have a problem with (ongoing) abuse/stalking...


 This has been a cause on which I have spent a great deal of
 my time and effort over the last three years and it is very
 dear to my heart.  I also moderate a support list for these
 women.

God help them.  If anyone was so totally unqualified to moderate such a list, it is 
you...


June

Oh, yes,you did and I have the post.  As for your
testosterone-crazed existence, who cares!  But be that as it
may, the fact remains that a Native American (not correct
terminology--can't recall) came on this list and her name
was ridiculed, she was sent to ebay for a new scalp or skin
or whatever and she was threatened to be hurt over the
writings of somebody else.  Most interesting is who did
these contemptible things? Those mean old racist
conservative/libertarian/republicans?  NN!  It was the
far left-wingers showing their true colors once more for our
reading pleasure.  BTW, I';; be happy to leave when and if
Kris invites me to do so.  Until then, you have absolutely
no right to keep telling people to get out.  You seem to
forget often that 'tis not your list.

NESSIE, as for your threats to "hurt" the poster,


I did no such thing. I merely defined the conditions under
which I
would hurt the poster (or anybody else, for that matter). I
did this by
once again restating the by now well known fact that I
require people in
my physical presence to treat me and my friends with
respect. That's how
I live my life. If you don't like it, too bad. If you don’t
like us,
keep it to yourself and go somewhere else.
