I have always said that you must deal from strength. If you intentionally do violence, do it to women. Judges love to blame the victim if female. If you accidentally hurt a perp whilst defending yourself, you can get in quite a bit of trouble though...

It.

I don't know if this is the place for this rant, but I am absolutely apoplectic about the results of the mid-term elections in the U.S. I'm literally sick to my stomach. I'll leave it at that. X-(
My current rant concerns the immigration issues at Calais - not sure if this has been covered before,so sorry if it has.
It seems to me that the French must have a valid point here - if our benefits system wasn't so generous and appealing to these immigrants (most from Africa and Afghanistan as I understand it) then they wouldn't be half as keen to get here,causing all manner of problems at Calais in the process! If I understand if correctly, immigrants can start claiming benefits immediately they land in UK soil? Crazy!
This abject and irresponsible use of Uk tax payer money can also be seen in the huge foreign aid we send to countries like India - who have a space programme!!!

I can't understand why the Republicans just had their best election in about eighty years! I understand Obama isn't nearly as good as Clinton was at playing the political game, but compared to George W. Bush this president still looks like a fantastic supreme commander. Is it inflicting the "horrors" of universal health insurance he's being punished for?

People here in the States are tired of freedom, independence, equality, and all the rest of that utopian nonsense. They want & need the security of a mysogenist & racist police state. Hence the voting results.

The explanation is pretty easy. The US media with "flagship" FOX news put an entire country into a non-existent ebola fear.
A public in fear will vote those who tell them that they protect them - and the republicans demanded to close the borders against Africa.
A country in fear will also allow easier the loss of civil rights "because we are under attack".
Their main claim was that the country need someone to take the lead and the voters followed it.
That together with Obama disappointing many of his former voters (who presumably then did not vote at all) and the other party mobilizing more of their voters and you have a result.

I understand you, old pal.
Here many analysts see a good part in that result because if the reps continue their blockade policy in the next 2 years, it will mobilize many voters from the democrat camp to return and vote at the presidential election.

I understand Rupublican voters are are more steady voters than Democrats, perhaps because they believe the rediculous propaganda about Obama: the health reform means death squads hunting down their grandmothers, he will take away all their guns, he is a soscialist, he is a muslim etc. Many Democrats on the other hand feel Obama hasn't lived up to the unrealitic expectations they had when he was elected.
One funny aspect of the recent US elections was the republican's claim to strengthen the middle-class.
The US middleclass eroded and suffered a lot in the last decade - mostly because GW Bush's buddy-policy that virtually robbed everyone for the good of some ultra-rich few.
Hoping that the middle-class will get better and stronger under a republican presidentship is one of the most naive daydreams that you can have. Remember that the republicans did everything to prevent tax rises for the super-rich in the last decade.

You have a keen understand of my country. Better than most who live here.
I belive the minimum wage didn't og up during the eight Bush years, but the inflation did! What is strange is that many of those minimum wage workers voted for him. Just promise them to protect their guns, be against abortion, promise lower taxes (but don't say who gets the tax cuts!) and say "God bless Amdrica! a lot. If you do many poor people will vote against their interests again and again.

Not a good day for the Democrats. Although with the Tea Party in charge
There'll be some very sensible policies coming forward.
Let's face facts, they couldn't do a worse one.
