38. Seriously?

Reread this subthread. The nutty assertion that this act is proof (or part or associated with) of the War on Women wasn't my statement (rather, I am questioning that because it is absurd and not proven or even provable)

It was I that mentioned unicorns. I can make any crazy shit up. If you disagree with it, the burden of proof lies on my side. Questioning a nutty statement doesn't make the questioner have to prove anything.

we all do understand very well what is going on here

Then you have a warped view of the world. This lone act of a crazed nut was no more part of a grander War on Women than Aileen Wuornos' acts were part of the War on Men (it was her own personal war). Whether or not there is some grander war, lone crazy acts of crazy people are sometimes just that.

I await a confused reply with "patriarchy" and "oppression" mentioned at least once
