Killing Your Daughter

Uppity Woman recounts this appalling tale before this summary bit:

Cockroach of the week is a No Contest – Saudi Arabian degenerate rapes, tortures and murders his own child. « Uppity Woman

...Only when tortured Middle Eastern women rise up and kill the oppressive animals who torture them — in their sleep — on the same night –will they be able to live in peace and dignity. Because this is what a barbaric repressive theocracy does to women and girls.

Don’t expect our Pravda press to make a big deal of what happened to a five-year old girl at the claws of a monster in Saudi Arabia. Or that creatures with the same depraved mentality as this clinically insane “preacher’ move to the USA without a second look. That would be blasphemy or something. And they wonder why gun sales continue to rise among women. But hey! How about that Kim Kardashian!

RIP little girl. You’re probably better off dead than alive in Saudi Arabia.

Thank God we live in the USA, warts and all.

The Other Sandusky Monster

TheSpec - There were two monsters in the Sandusky house

Evil can come in many forms. It can come in the likes of Stalin or Hitler, or it can come in the gentle grey softness of a grandmother like Dottie Sandusky.

Dorothy Sandusky, who has been married to the now infamous pedophile for more than 40 years, was allegedly home during some of the attacks. Sandusky’s accusers claim to have been raped in the basement of his Pennsylvania home while Dottie puttered away upstairs...
