But sometimes people can be...

Brave.

Someone who responds to this: http://the-toast.net/2014/12/10/bad-victims/ dismissively, caustically, cynically, insensitively, who used to be a friendly happy seeming sort of fellow, who is married with daughters, likes nature, and now is gonna be working as a campus police officer, and has to keep feeling oppressed and saying a bunch of stuff that implies that he thinks that most of the rape victims are lying? I don't know why must a person be like that. Right now, I have no energy to engage with those forces. The depression, in denial, anger, society-just-lets-it-slide forces. And I'm sorry. I'm sorry if I am one of the ones doing that...so I will try to not do that too by at least saying...

I am grateful. For the bravery. Thank you.
