Perhaps the lady is thankful there is a day for the elimination of violence against women, which is November 25th and this year thanksgiving happens to be on November 25th.


You’re Welcome
XLV = 4

But it does say in the article why they chose Nov. 25 to mark this date.

Let's be thankful the the world is starting to take a stand against violence to women...........

Explain, why some women, educated and not so educated stay in abusive relationships, keeps going back to it, gets out of one and finds another one just the one before.

Agree, some men are habitually violent and needs to be dealt with but women does contribute a great deal by going round and round.

IMHO, all of these and how we deal with it has become a cliche just like giving aid to the poor. I am beginning to wonder whether this has become a business and in need of change and I believe it has. We give money to a country, the leaders of the country steal it, they become rich bye putting the money in Swiss banks and buying properties and mansions in the developed world, people rise up and throws them out or another despot throws the one in power out, west gives the leader asylum because he is head of state, shields him/her from prosecution, they live lavishly with the ill gotten wealth, makes some noises occasionally and dies at the age of 90. It is all fucked up.

No accountability, no need to show progress or improvement just money thrown down shit hole after shit hole.

Am I pissed about it, yes. I am tired of being made to look like an idiot for trying to help. Look at the recent events:

Haiti Earth Quake: Need billions.

Pakistan Flood: Need billions

In the meantime, what the hell happened to all the aid and billions in charitable contributions given to them in 3 or 4 decades?

Where did it all go? I am not doing the same thing over and over and expecting different result, no more.




You've been turning me on to these subjects and I thank you.
