Because Clarissa is the ideal of child sexual abuse. That comic doesn't even remotely cover what it is actually like to be sexually abused. Frankly it is so on the nose it's painful, but not in a good way. Clarissa has an understanding that something is wrong and wants things to stop. That's an agency most abuse victims dream of. It's not realistic beyond it's moral statements. Clarissa is the superhero most abused kids wish they could have been. The realism doesn't shine until people ignore her or say she's being dramatic. It's a simplified version of what actual abuse looks like, and it makes the horror slightly relatable. It is a comic book version of a reality. Clarissa is cleansing if you're an abuse victim because she exemplifies how you want to react to your abuse. It isn't reality. It's a comic book, divorced of reality. Victims of childhood sexual abuse want to be brave and it never works out like you'd think. Clarissa makes this obvious, she's the superhero all abuse victims want.

Abuse isn't as cut and dry as the comic would make you believe. It's almost a farce in that regard. It's correct and all wrong at once.

IFM you're doing a good thing trying to move past that abortion of a derail. I wouldn't normally post a really bad macro in the funny pictures thread but a change of topic is much needed so time to roll the dice.

Here's the thing: Lots of businesses are barely making it and don't sell meth on the side for lawyer money.

A lot of victims of civil forfeiture abuse can't afford lawyers and it's why it gets abused heavily. It is not something worth defending.

Especially with good old Jeff Sessions wanting to expand it.

I'm not suggesting my owner's situation is typical. This was one case in Oregon, unremarkable except that it happened near me.

The DEA took and kept all his meth money. The family was able to get the feds to pay the attorney's fees when they won, which the lawyer knew would happen because the DEA abused their asset forfeiture powers. An Oregon jury sided with their fellow Oregonian rather than Federal overreach. I know not everyone has the resources to stop asset forfeiture, but for the people who have something worth taking, they also have something worth defending (for the lawyer and the property owner) in a court of law.

Every American adult should know when to contact a lawyer. By design, the lawyer slapfight is how conflicts are resolved in this country. No need to be fatalistic until you've tried your legal options.

Also, Jeff Sessions can't lead the Justice Department out a paper bag.

Hey, every American has the right to live in Oregon. Or New Mexico, where they made state civil asset forfeiture illegal.

He wasn't white though. And his monies were taken in a DEA raid.

The afterlife, as per Dante's N-Ferno blog, is composed of many levels.

First Circle (Yahoo Answers) - A land of the lost and confused, doing nothing inherently wrong, but condemned to hell because of ignorance.
Second Circle (Toontown Online) - Where children go to be haunted by idiots.
Third Circle (Facebook) - Those cursed of vanity and narcissism.
Fourth Circle (Myspace) - Those out of step with time. Also ethnics.
Fifth Circle (Something Awful) - The formerly powerful, mostly forgotten to wander the mists.
Entrance to Dis Nuts
Sixth Circle (TV Tropes) - Seriously, just skip this level. I mean, seriously.
Seventh Circle (Reddit) - The balance point of hell, a combination of the the best, and the absolute wretched worst. Plus you could probably find people who give blow jobs to trees here. They'll take anyone.
Eighth Circle (4-Chan) - The rotting crust that fell from the higher levels. Scum and villainy, and memes.
Ninth Circle (8-Chan) - Even the devil is scared of this level. Makes other levels of hell look like Club Med.
Centre of Hell - The great beast sits on his frozen throne, lording over the underworld, forever ejaculating Simpsons memes up to the world of man.

It's semantics but it's probably translated wrong and supposed to be "how do I make A friend". Still, as a Swede, :smith:
