43. I've already seen a self pitying

meme about how next time your drunken boyfriend beats you, I won't come. Overwrought and has nothing to do with it and makes them look petulant.

Another thing making me sick is the way they will go on about the Baton Rouge victim having a criminal record as if that has anything to do with it. It is like they are trying to say oh well it's no big loss. Except to the rule of law where your past record has nothing to do with the fact you are to be treated innocent until proven guilty, a warrant needed to stop you, etc. regardless and that the cop may not have known that at the time. Or eve if the cop knew it he has no right to use that record as an excuse to do anything less than permitted by law.
