The constant rationalization of criminal behavior may not explain why it happens but it certainly explains why it happens so often.

I know you will ignore this or worse, turn it in to some sort of justification for your position, but maybe someday the light will go on for you, good luck.
Ha, you are a real piece of work. I too believe violence towards women is unacceptable. I'm just trying to teach you a few things young padawan... Smart judgements you cannot make with knowing first all of the facts.

Mathis' girlfriend moved out of the state and dropped all the charges. If I'm going to take someone's word on this incident it is hers. I'm not going to try to be Sherlock Holmes and piece together how I think it all went down. And the example I gave above was NOT criminal behavior but a situation where a female can fabricate or embelish a situation for personal gain... There of course is the opposite end of the spectrum where a woman is in a violent relationship which is absolutely deplorable and in need of immediate attention from the authorities. However, we cannot be so quick to convict in the court of public opinion. Especially 1000 miles away, a month later after reading an article.
