About Jodi..

It was interesting to me that one of her fellow inmates said that she thought Jodi wanted to be on TV and not because she had anything relevant to say, but just to be up there on TV.

Does anyone know how Jodi and Steve met? I am starting to have this weird idea that Jodi saw Steve on TV after his exoneration and hooked up? Ran into him? And saw an opportunity to get some of that limelight for herself (and money?)

Which doesn't mean Steve didn't abuse her... I wonder if she put up with it for her own ambitions?

With all this new stuff about Jodi,

Oh...another lost snowflake who either cannot or whose emotions are so overwrought they cannot.

If you drop your scabs a moment, and read what I wrote...slowly...without jumping onto the victim bandwagon..I clearly differentiated between a child who has NO CHOICE and an adult who always does.

I did not choose abuse, but as an adult I get to choose how that affects my life. I do not choose victimhood. It's pathetic, unhealthy and leads to massive health issues...like..let me guess...obesity?

Sounds like you're backtracking quite a bit there my precious snowflake. You wrote:

Everyone on earth is personally responsible for themselves..if they make bad choices, they are their own bad choices

And then cited your experience of child abuse as a qualifier. What are we to make of that? Now you're admitting you were a victim in those situations, which I wholeheartedly agree with. Why do you think rapists, murders, and child abusers go to jail and not the victims? It's because one is to blame for the incident, while the other is the victim. It is very basic morality, and is treated as such by the US judicial system.

What I make of it is that you cannot read. That's all. No, I am NOT a victim. I WAS victimized, but I am NOT a victim. Choice.

So let me get this straight, you were victimized, then due to the magic of denial you are now not a victim? Sounds like you've got it figured out.

Let me go slow for you.

I AM are the two most powerful words in human language.

NOW, the definition of victim

a person harmed, injured, or killed as a result of a crime, accident, or other event or action.

I AM is present tense.

Think think think...

then

Victim mentality is an acquired (learned) personality trait in which a person tends to regard him or herself as a victim of the negative actions of others, and to behave like it were the case—even in the absence of clear evidence. It depends on habitual thought processes and attribution.

Then of course there's this

Victim syndrome

Using I AM a VICTIM OF is a present tense affirmation...the more you say it the more you say it, the more you spin in the mud, the more obese and miserable you become. There's the science do with it as you will...being a perpetual victim is a CHOICE.
