"I don't condone violence against women. I understand it, but I don't condone it."
In this case, I would even condone it. Because this woman, I want to beat the living crap out of.
My girlfriend Nurse Betty has children. One of whom is a lovely, bubbly, energetic, delightful grade school daughter. One of those kids that make people who don't want to have kids actually think about wanting to have kids. We'll call her Bubbly.
Now, Bubbly's father did her and Nurse Betty a great favor a long time ago, and disappeared. Completely. No one knows where he is. Considering what a shitbag he was, that was a good thing. But his mother, Bubbly's grandmother, is still involved in her life, and has been, by all accounts, a pretty good grandma. Grandma's daughter, Bubbly's paternal aunt T, however, has always been kind of a shit to Nurse Betty and even her own niece, Bubbly.
All of the above is normal. All of the above is annoying and a nuisance and makes NB not like T all that much. And all of the above is inconsequential except as a prelude to what happened yesterday.
Bubbly was at Grandma's house, and T was also there. Apparently Grandma told Bubbly to do something, Bubbly did it, then T told her to do it. Bubbly told her she already did it, and she knows how to do it. At which point T became Auntie Dearest, grabbing this lovely little girl by the neck and choking her. Bubbly actually told NB that she thought she was going to die. Bubbly got away and ran. T was so out of control that Grandma, T's own mother, locked herself and Bubbly in another room and called the police.
The good news is that the police came, took statements from all three, and promptly arrested Aunt Pyscho. She has been booked into jail, charged with two felony assault charges. Due to the bond the judge posted for her, it is rather unlikely she'll be getting out of jail before the arraignment next week. NB is going to be taking out a restraining order against T, but one bit of good news is that almost always in assault cases, especially those involving children, the judge tends to order the accused to have no contact with the victim. Basically, a court ordered restraining order on top of that which NB is going to file.
So, as much as I detest men who are violent against women, I defy anyone to honestly tell me I am wrong for wanting the beat the living shit out of Bubbly's psycho aunt. Seriously. Let's just say it's a good thing for her that she is thousands of miles from me AND in jail. Grrr...
