She Hit A Snag And Unraveled Part 2...

Do Some People Get A Free Pass???...

Well, I've got a few minutes to type a few things before I get ready for work. I've been wanting so badly to comment on my fellow bloggers' blogs, but I can't at work. Uncle Leroy is scoping us. So, I'll have to get back with you all when I get back home. Blogging will be a home activity. Boy, did I have fun typing under the name of Aunt Lula on the C.runk and D.isorderly blog. Those were the days. *sigh*

Now back to this whole female astronaut situation about her crushing and losing it over a man. More information has leaked out since the story first broke. It turns out she is recently separated, the mother of 3 children, a decorated officer of the Navy, and has a long list of friends and colleagues who have been going to bat for her to protect her reputation and career. They say that she was suffering from mental anquish, which caused her to act out of character. Read here ==> New Justification

Hmm. I somewhat have a problem with all of this. Why? Because the media somewhat failed to cover other perspectives. I feel sorry for her children. Just imagine what they have to go through at school. And we know how mean kids can be. The school bullies definitely won't live down the whole diaper bit. So, when planning this whole premeditated evident, I wonder whether the female astronaut ever thought about the consequences and ramifications her kids would have to deal with. Imagine how her separated husband may feel. He's the one who will have to explain to their kids what happened. And most importantly, what about the woman (another military officer) who was being targeted for being maimed or killed? When she sees how folks are praising the female astronaut on tv and in newspapers, I wonder how she feels about knowing that woman came to do her in. Shux, she could have been hog-tied in the back of that astronaut's car trunk. Does anyone realize the seriousness of this?

And one more thing, when it ever comes to a love triangle, why does the woman have to go after the other woman? This is so very predictable and pathetic. I get tired of hearing about it. She claims that she only wanted to talk to the man's possible love interest (the other woman). Okay, with all of her smarts, why didn't she just pick up the freaking phone or send an email. Getting maps to someone's home and the police witnessing you throwing pepper spray, a rope, and a knife out of your car, does suggest that you knew what you were doing. People have suggested that the man should have to answer for this, but I differ in opinion. If he was the one intending on kidnapping someone, he should be under scrutiny. But on this, I believe this "married" woman should have to deal with the consequences of "her" actions. If you can't hang with those weird/strange/different relationship setups (love triangles, swinging, the ole switch-aroo, etc.), get out of it plain and simple. Don't deal with it. She's not the first one to be cheated on and won't be the last. But really, was she really cheated on? Separated still means married.

Perhaps, the female astronaut did snap. But why should she be given a free pass or a fast rush to judgment that she's suffering from mental anquish (preparing to get her off the hook)? Had it been a woman who didn't have such as big and lofty profession, you know, a common every day person or someone like you and me, I bet we wouldn't be receiving any freebies. We'd be still sitting up at the big house after being denied bail. I'm just saying. *shrug*
