It's because they were beaten as children, and the mental and emotional scars that has left on them can potentially drive them to inflict suffering or desire to see suffering inflicted on others due to a broken sense of what is normal. Or they're something even more twisted, but those are pretty rare. Or they're trying to be edgy, that one's depressingly common. I Killed GBS has a new favorite as of 06:10 on Sep 16, 2014 |

It's relatively new concept to not hit your wife when she doesn't do what you say actually. Traditionally, the man's role in a family was meant to be the one who disciplines his wife and kids, with all the awfulness that implies.

Not idiotic in the good ol' sexist, racist, nationalist, etc way, but I saw this comment while listening to Ween's Spinal Meningitis on Youtube. First off, love the dude's screen name. The craziness in the post is wonderful, along with the fact that it's, you know, posted about Spinal Meningitis by Ween. Apparently all the people that died from crucifixion were somehow able to pass on that memory through... somehow, I guess. Also love the guy replying as if it's not a crazy load.

I get the impression that a lot of these people haven't bothered to actually read any of the details of the case, so they honestly think the NFL is sidelining this guy because he spanked his kid in any form. When the reality of course is that he beat the kid with a switch hard enough to cause extensive wounds that needed medical care. Meanwhile they probably think he hit the kid on the butt once with his hand and the  PC POLICE swooped in. Not that either scenario is all that great.And yes, there do seem to be people who think that beating your wife is not only good but part of a good marriage since you know, women are basically like children in their minds. Even people who don't think like this didn't seem to have much of a problem with the whole thing (or tried to rationalize it) until they actually saw video footage of what it looks like when a guy knocks his wife out.

Strudel Man posted:I'm not sure if you're being serious, but if you are, you really shouldn't take what people say here as a reliable barometer of anything. Spanking children for misbehavior is a broadly accepted practice. It's widely accepted, but mainly because people are ignorant of the effects, the APA strongly reccomends against it because of the psychological harm it causes.

Not only did he hit him hard enough, multiple times, to cause open wounds on the kid, the switch he used also wrapped around and hit the kid in the balls. He also texted his ex-wife about it. quote:The beating allegedly resulted in numerous injuries to the child, including cuts and bruises to the child's back, buttocks, ankles, legs and scrotum, along with defensive wounds to the child's hands. Peterson then texted the boy's mother, saying that one wound in particular would make her "mad at me about his leg. I got kinda good wit the tail end of the switch." Like goddamn. It's one thing to act all defensive when your are criticized for spanking your kid cause you're too stupid to outsmart your 5 year old, but come the gently caress on! That is clearly child abuse!

Sad thing is it only got reported by the doctor.  I'm sure there will be people in favor of this too though. I know when I was a kid I used to know older people who would talk about being beaten with switches (and the mental punishment of having to find and cut the switch) like it was the reason for their success in life or something. robotsinmyhead posted:If anything comes out of this ridiculous arms race of shouting over Muslims, it's the Van Helsing-like array of bullshit weapons they think is going to something kill Islam off.

^This is also one of the stupid conservative assumptions: Most Catholics only don't eat meat on Fridays during Lent, which is only 40 days out of the year, so like, tops 5 or 6 days a year. And mostly you forget and shrug and go "whatevs". Yes, there are some hardcore super Catholics that don't do the Vatican II stuff, like they still only speak Latin at services, and women still wear veils during church, but this is such a small proportions of Catholics it's very negligible. Which brings me to my point-they presume all Muslims are hardcore super Muslims that would be ENRAGED by something stupid like burying a pig or whatever dumb gris-gris these conservative fucks think will melt their skin off like the Nazis opening the Ark. However, most Muslims are like most Catholics, or really any other large, mainstream religion, in that they don't go out of their way to break their own rules, but if some other rear end in a top hat does it for them to make some rear end in a top hat point, they don't really care aside from the initial "what a dick" reaction. I guess the point of this is to go "Americaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" but seriously, any tiny little bit of thought just makes the guy look like an rear end in a top hat in either case. Either he's an rear end in a top hat because he riles up the angry horde of super Muslims and they carbomb the base and he gets people killed (unlikely) or he's an rear end in a top hat because he is dicking about with the religion of the locals, who are just trying to go about their business. I suppose that's why I posted it. I get a lot of idiots on my Facebook as well, but this one really stood out because it is, quite possibly, the stupidest bit of nationalist dick waggling that I've ever seen.

Well to be fair, most of the people talking about Muslim-banishing-postions are inventing a straw-Muslim that is fanatical enough over their religion to launch a suicide attack on them for being a non-Muslim. I'm not saying they're correct, I'm saying that even if they knew what you were saying was true, it wouldn't stop them from coming up with more stupid/Islamophobic poo poo. RareAcumen posted:

I remember reading an article on Al Jazeera that the a lot of the locals have a hard time taking clean-shaven men seriously and it was having some effect on reconstruction efforts, so some organisations have loosened up their uniform regs to let their men be bearded. Not sure if that included the Americans though. In my experiences, not unless you're SF -or- way out in some remote COP where not getting overrun takes priority over policing mooustaches. What's shittier is those poor fucks that get stuck in remote places often come back to bigger bases for re-supply or whatever, and some dickhead with rank comes up to them and gives them a ration of poo poo because they equate authoritarianism with leadership.

They even do it in Canada alreadyquote:The NHL requires arenas to perform both the Canadian and American national anthems at games that involve teams from both countries.[33] One American team, the Buffalo Sabres, goes a step further and performs both anthems before every game as a nod to Buffalo's location near the Canadian border and the team's substantial number of Canadian fans.[29] Major League Baseball teams have played the song at games involving the Toronto Blue Jays and the former Montreal Expos,[34] and National Basketball Association teams do so for games involving the Toronto Raptors, and previously, the Vancouver Grizzlies. Major League Soccer has the anthem performed at league and Amway Canadian Championship matches involving Toronto FC, Montreal Impact, and Vancouver Whitecaps FC.

Looked it up so y'all don't have toquote:A Ricky Rescue is similar to a "Wacker." It is a person who works in EMS (EMT, Firefighter, Paramedic) and gets waaaaay too excited for every single little call. On weak rear end calls such as bullshit anxiety they are in there with oxygen and trauma sheers in hand. These people usually have the stickers on their truck, carry scanners and listen to them on and off duty, always wear those annoying shirts, and cannot run an assesment to save their life.
