Without Let or Hindrance

Children abducted by the state are typically harmed more than children left in their homes:

…Ke’Torrius “K.J.” Starkes Jr. [was killed by]…the Alabama [“]child protective services[“] agency [when]…he [was]…left inside a car…in Birmingham for [more than five] hours during the middle of the day [in July during a heat wave]…Courtney French, the family’s attorney, [said]…“He died a brutal death”…during the 12:30 to 5:30 p.m. window when [the incompetent bureaucrat]…left [him] in…the car…heat index values…ranged from 101 to 105 degrees…the [state had abducted the toddler from his family for unreported reasons, and were forcing]…his [parents to jump through expensive, time-consuming, and degrading hoops]…as part of a court-ordered process…to [get] their [child back from the incompetent bureaucrats whose negligence eventually killed him]…“This would have never happened had K.J. been with his parents,” French added…

HIV Cure (#1129)

Not a cure, but the next best thing:

…the first HIV drug that offers 100% protection with…twice-yearly injections [has been approved by the US FDA and]…stands to save millions of lives across the globe.  The makers…[have] sign[ed] royalty-free licensing agreements with six generic manufacturers to produce and supply it…lenacapavir…[belongs to] a class of drugs known as capsid inhibitors, which provide almost 100% protection against HIV infection…the capsid is a protein shell that houses and protects viral genetic material…once inside the host cell, the capsid is shed, and the virus begins copying itself.  Lenacapavir stops that from happening…In 2022, lenacapavir was approved…to treat HIV in those already infected, but long-acting prevention medication has been much more difficult to realize…

Feudalism Redux (#1500)

Forced-birth fanatics are trying to extend their crazed jihad outside their own borders, so as to establish ownership over their subjects:

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton [keeps trying to impose]…Texas…abortion laws…on…[citizens of] New York [by suing]…Ulster County Clerk Taylor Bruck for refusing to [rob]…Dr. Margaret Carpenter [of $100,000 and give it to Paxton]…in accordance with the New York State Shield Law…[in response] Paxton [had a fit in which his head spun 360^o and he projectile-vomited vile totalitarian propaganda about how he personally owns every woman] in…Texas [and he will put a curse on anyone who disagrees]…

No Escape (#1537)

The human and financial costs of our society’s sick infatuation with incarceration are staggering:

Three [typical and representative] Oregon [screws] are named in new lawsuits…[because they] sexually abus[ed] young prisoners at [two juvenile dungeons]…more than a decade ago…[as is typical in such cases,] the…victims…reported the…abuse but were ignored or “actively silenced”.  Three women who were teenagers between 1999 and 2008 [were abused by a screw named] Scott J. Scrabeck [who repeatedly] groped them, forced them to [give him hand jobs] and masturbated while watching them shower…“[They wanted it],” [Scrabeck] said…Another woman sued…[a “]group life coordinator[” named] Alex Blevins…[for] sexually abus[ing] her [at least] 10 times between 2009 and 2011, starting when she was 16…Blevins…was fired…in 2014 after [he sexually harassed female] staff…A third suit…[is against a screw named] Robert L. Blacksmith…[whose victim was silenced] by threatening to withhold family visits…Blacksmith was fired in 2006 after he was caught [stalking another potential victim via] the state computer system…and…was indicted…on…child sex abuse [charges] around th[at same] time…[but] fled the state…and [was] arrested…and [imprisoned in California for similar crimes]…

The Cop Myth (#1540)

Sleeping with a cop is one of the most dangerous things a woman can do:

[A Connecticut cop named] Gregory Zach…was arrested [on July 23 for repeatedly]…threatening…[and] assault[ing his girlfriend, but]…was [also rewarded with a paid vacation.  Some of his fellow cops]…”began to hear rumors” that Zach…had…spit [in the woman’s face] “in front of numerous witnesses”…and she…detailed multiple occasions where Zach became angry with her for talking with other men, threatened her and took her phone from her…in…April…he grabbed her arm and [threatened]…to punch her, then shoved her onto a bed before texting her “Too bad I didn’t break your [fucking] arm the other night.”  [On] June 8…he [attacked her to]…keep her from [going out with friends, then]…on June 26…showed up at her home unannounced…in [his magical clown costume], walked in, and slapped her on the face, then grabbed her by the shoulders, threw her on the bed, and began choking her…On July 2…he [stalked her]…to…her workplace…[and] began insulting her…before…spit[ting] in [her] face…Zach was previously suspended…after…[punch]ing a woman…in the face [in 2009].  The city of Stamford settled the case [for $230,000] in April 2014…

The Cop Myth (#1560)

Do I really need to say, “Don’t let one live with you, either”?

A [typical and representative New York cop]…is being held without bail [for the] murder [of his roommate].  Edison Irizarry…[shot]…Casey Cuddy…a psychiatric mental health nurse and actor who…in November 2022…[accepted Irizarry’s response to his] classified ad…seeking a roommate…Irizarry[‘s motive, if any, for the murder of Cuddy is unknown]…

To Molest and Rape (ROTW #22)

A whole gang of sexual predators specifically targeting traumatized girls:

Five women who were abused as children by Rotherham grooming gangs were also raped by [cops] when they were as young as 12 years old…Three [typical and representative cops] have been arrested [so far]…while a fourth [rapist cop]…has since died.  One [cop]…raped [his victims] in a [pigmobile and got her to submit by]…threaten[ing] to hand her back to a gang to suffer “multiple rapes” i[nstead of just the one by him.  Other cops either]…turn[ed] a blind eye or participat[ed] in the grooming between the mid-90s and early 2000s.  The wider scandal affected at least 1,400 girls in Rotherham and continued until at least 2013…

I find paywalls distasteful, and so many people find this blog valuable as a resource I just can’t bring myself to install one.  Furthermore, I find ad delivery services (whose content I have no say over) even more distasteful.  But as I’m now semi-retired from sex work, I can’t self-sponsor this blog by myself any longer.  So if you value my writing enough that you would pay to see it if it were paywalled, please consider subscribing; there are four different levels to fit all budgets.  Or if that doesn’t work for you, please consider showing your generosity with a one-time donation; you can Paypal to maggiemcneill@earthlink.net or else email me at the same address to make other arrangements.  Thanks so much!
