We could rectify that by crucifying his misogynistic ass.

Home of Jesse Helms, after all.

"She was asking for it."

I weep for this country and where it is headed.

wonder if these men hated their mothers??

(I am a retired mental health professional).
I conducted court ordered psych evaluations for those sitting in jail for various crimes.
Many were sexual offenders.

Some of them had been abused themselves.
Or seriously neglected, yes some had mother issues.
Or seriously immature and consensual sex was frightening on some level.
Or angry at women for various reasons.
Some liked the game of the crime.
And the power trip.
Or pretended the woman came on to them.

It was a mixed bag. Sometimes the childhood stories were quite sad.

The child sexual offenders were difficult for me.
Hearing grown men say the three year they had raped, asked for it.

After a couple of years of this, I asked to move to other clinic duties.
It was not something I wanted to do long term.

I of course stayed professional and wrote the court reports in a neutral clinical way.
The courts and judges wanted certain information and opinions about diagnosis and
treatment.

Actually I thought about those reports after hearing Judge Engoron's ruling recently.
The judges always wanted to know if the people sitting in jail that I was evaluating
expressed any remorse, guilt about what they did. Sometimes they did, sometimes not.
But the judges took that into account in their decisions.

are very taxing and mentally draining dealing with those dilemmas every day. But the country really lacks Mental Health professionals they are needed more than ever.

I miss it. But yes it is very demanding, challenging and entails a great deal of responsibility
and high standard of care.

Yes managed care oligarchs ruined the mental health profession some decades ago.
They swooped in took over the mental health portion of the insurance company policies
and then just blatantly refused to pay for mental health services or paid a pittance.
Even though patients had mental health benefits in their policies.
The rich corporations pocketed the mental health money for themselves.
It was a real crime, but nothing we could do about it.
Vulture capitalism.

So psychologists were working for free or for peanuts
and that cannot last long.

Many professionals went out of business, and got other jobs.
I was able to hang in there, I ran my own small practice.
And kept my costs low.

Things did pick up, but mental health was not something many wanted
to take a chance on in terms of a career.

And now getting a PhD is so expensive to become a therapist.
So now there are more master's level therapists.
And psychiatrists make the lowest amount of all medical specialities.
So there is a real shortage.

because I see a need for Mental Health professionals to be called upon when police go on domestic home calls, and escalating the situation instead of de-escalating when they confront a mentally challenged person.

Mental health staff in hospital psych units work with acting out dangerous people all the time
and we don't need to kill them to get them under control. We have training on how to take down
out of control patients without hurting them. Get them in restraints and then sedate them if need be.

One of my family members works in a psych emergency dept of a hospital and is only 4ft 10 in tall.
With some help, she can take down a very big patient out of control who is threatening and dangerous.
I think if she can do it, police officers could too.

I did a bit of working with the police on domestic calls, it was not always a safe situation.
I worked for a county mental health clinic and was the liaison to the police and fire depts and courts.

This was 40 years ago and there were not so many guns back then but it could still be dangerous
when families are fighting. And once when I was riding with a police officer doing night patrol,
we happened to come across an armed robbery in progress, we were right at the scene by chance.

The officer I was riding with was a petite female, first female officer to be hired by the city.
And none of the males in her city dept would come to back her up just out of spite.

Thank god she was married to a man in the sheriff's county dept and help did come eventually from them.
But she apprehended the criminals by herself. My life flashed in front of my eyes during this situation.

I think if a mental health person is going to ride around with officers on patrol and going to domestics
they needs some police training as well in case the situation escalates.

Another option is for the police to learn how to identify mentally ill people and how to handle them
safely.

sentence is all so true. Irish_Dem you have had some interesting work experiences. Just know your work wasn't in vain, and helping people who have challenges you have helped just goes a long way.

I had a 40 year career and always did my best.
I hope I leave the planet a little bit better than when I got here.

need to reach that goal. Love triumphs evil, sorry to be a little sappy.

Thank you Irish_Dem for your sharing and your very/very hard work.

Our current US capitalistic-oriented environment doesn't make it easy to handle societal issues since dealing with these issues doesn't increase someone's bottom line - at least quickly enough.

That is nice of you to say.

I did love my job. It was always fascinating, never boring, a challenge and kept me on my toes every day.
Plus I really like helping people better get better and doing well.
That makes me happy.

Right there is not a lot of glory or money in the psych field, hard for the oligarchs to rip off the system any more.
They did that once and that is why there is a shortage in the field to this day.

is nothing new.

I keep hoping humans will make some progress.

There are lots of them. They learned pastoring in prison. Saved and all that?

...what a horrible copout. Everything can be excused if the man was tempted. This is shades of Islam where the women have to dress head to toe so that men are not tempted. Men bear no responsibility if they are tempted.

Some fucking preacher.

Excuse me? Someone needs to look into his past. He considers rape to be something that every man would do (they just can't help themselves when they see women dressed inappropriately?)!!

that cover from the neck to the toes and long covered uncut hair, sounds like a religious frock. Of what religion, who is to say. Bet those women never get raped eh?



If what a women wears arouses you to the point of cat calling and more extreme actions like rape, then it's you who needs to check yourself. You sick F*ck

If you tell the judge this, he will likely have some choice words and fines for you before your dismissal.

It is a poisonous force all over the planet. The stupid stories were made up by men to further male superiority. And of course their cruel asshole of a sky wizard deity, God, is a male.

Deep down, I think most "believers" know it's all really a bunch of fictional bullshit.

If your hand causes you to sin, cut if off.

Not sure what he said about your penis or this asshole's brain.

and get mugged...

Wear a Rolex? You are asking to get mugged.

and say misogynistic shit and you get punched and I'm on the jury, we'll try to think of a good joke where the punch line is "not guilty."

This is how women are treated.

says it goes against 'community standards'.

Seriously now, it's 2024 ffs

Flower-surrounded POS woman hater

I am so tired of these sick fucks.

men have no self control, and that's ok.

He's admitted himself incapable of self-control. He, by his own words, is a walking rape case waiting to happen. Interview the choir boys.

she's going to go free.

I don't think a jury would convict me if I should ever let my man-lust overcome me and use Pastor Bobby like a meat puppet.

You can't blame a fellow for succumbing to his God-given instincts, am I right?

He channels the demonic and doesn’t even realize it. People like this need to be removed from society. Let him live in a cave.

Filthy mind in that man.

Big RED FLAG!! danger danger danger. I wouldn't let this creep in my house.

So he's openly admitting that men are inferior to woman? They lack self control, are at the mercy of random impulses, and have no sense of responsibility to others or themselves. What a first class dick.

to go out and rape. Those poor women.

Arrogance, misogyny and self righteousness.

🤮

Because they were asking for it by wearing shorts.

He's a Trump supporter, right?

However, if you'd like to contact the church, you can go here

say the males who are looking for the right to be the monsters they want to be.

I was going to say 'animals', but I think better of animals. I think better of all the men I know who are not monsters and sho have no desire to behave like them. That would be, by far, the majority of the men I've ever met. The few males (not men) of the other sort I've met, I have yeeted as far out of my life as possible, as quickly as possible.

Spreading like MAGATs on the dying carcus of our country. They will consume every freedom.

and I'm on the jury, she's gonna go free.

there many perverted pastors.

And ask him if he enjoyed it. Wonder what he would say? Remind him it was gods will.

I hate these fucking misogynist trash.

and nothing happened more than conversation.

But then, I'm a decent person who respects others, kind of like the philosopher this reprobate claims he follows.

based on their 'need' to behave and dress in a manner that does not arouse a man's passions.

Sad but true.

….. it is then OK to rape that woman because his penis controls all his actions and his
God is fine with that line of thinking. I pity any daughter he might have, his wife, and or
any women he may run across because he just publicly admitted to being really fucked
up in his cognitive thoughts.

Btw North Carolina has felony rape laws on its books about the type of behavior Pastor
Bobby was down with if some man or teen saw some “side boob.”

If a girl or woman wears shorts, a man can ravage her and there will be no repercussions. Maybe it is the only way some of these animals, him included, can get in a female's pants.

Yeah. Perfect.

Dear God, this Trocolodyte mofo needs to park his old ass in a home.

"If you dress in an expensive suit like that, and some guy robs you at gunpoint, if I'm on the jury, he's going to go free."

would be for women to dress in Handmaiden style, covering the entire body. But they condemn Islamic societies that require exactly the same kind of dress. Insane theocrats.

But what I find most appalling is that he wasn't jeered as soon as he said it. The fact that people didn't get up and walk out of the sermon is something I can't understand. It's one thing for a single person to have outlandish and reprehensible views, but it's terrifying that an entire church is walking to follow that person without question.

The fact that he isn't getting backlash from his own people is what bothers me the most.

n/t

to society and should be castrated (chemically).

need to be kept indoors. They are children who need to be controlled by responsible adults.

Rape is still a crime. The perp is still a rapist and shouldn't go free. I hope this pastor isn't on such a jury.

Shorts? Really?

"I'm right though" "I know I'm right"

Said to an audience that absolutely will not disagree with him.

And people wonder why I don’t go to church. Why should I when the church is full of the ABSOLUTE WORST people in the world!

I'm almost at a loss for words about this pastor and his comment about women, shorts and rapists.

The only thing I can think is he would also think if a woman wears a swimsuit at the beach she's at fault if she's raped there.

As a 65 y/o husband, father and grandfather, all I can say is this pastor is an insult to men and manhood.
