Squirreling Them Away

Apparently squirrels aren’t the only ones after nuts this fall.

There is an extremely angry woman wandering around British Columbia, Canada who is taking her anger out on the men of the region around Langley. Her shtick is kicking unsuspecting guys in the groin as hard as she possibly can without any more provocation than a simple glance (per victim reports).

Anthony Clark, one of the victims, actually had one of “the boys” launched unceremoniously into his abdomen after “glancing” at the woman as she walked by on a city street. Mr Clark stated he was unaware of the extent of his injury until later that evening when he noticed something was missing. (Duh!) Mr Clark had to have the testicle surgically removed (that is, he no longer has it at all).

The suspect is described as a Caucasian woman, in her late teens or early 20s. She is between five-foot-five and five-foot-seven and 130 pounds with a slim build and brown hair… and a right foot David Beckham would be proud of.

Without the obvious jest (I’m biting my lip), what could possibly have happened to this young woman that would set her off? If she is the victim of a crime herself, then she needs to let the authorities handle her issue rather than practice her obviously hateful vigilante response.

While this is an obvious overreaction by the young woman, it does point out the harm we do to each other on a daily basis. Although it may not be physical, we can often kick each other in the groin or slap each other in the face with words and actions. Because it doesn’t leave physical scars, we often think non-physical abuses have less harmful effect.

Abuse is abuse, whatever the flavour.

It seems that society is beginning to disintegrate in ways that were never imagined before. In the meantime, I’m going to avoid Langley, British Columbia until Lizzie Borden-Scrotum is off the streets. I do hope this does not become a new sport.

No wonder I’m becoming agoraphobic. It’s time to stay home or start wearing a cup.

    I don’t think it’s acceptable either, Ely. Whatever may have happened to her, she needs to deal with it through the proper authorities.

    Learn to play lacrosse!? *snort* I print the t-shirts myself, darlin’. As for putting on weight, I suspect that would happen just walking up to your place. The smell in the air would be enough to put on a few pounds.

    Carmel apple pie is marriage material!

    I can think of several things that “could have” happened to her but exactly none of them make that kind of behavior “acceptable”.

    You can hang out over here Ed… the worst that will happen is that the kids torment you into learning to play lacrosse and you gain a few (dozen) pounds.
