Sure a lot of public officials are christian but that is because I live in the Bible belt and the majority of people are Christians so by default the majority of public officials will be too. Secondly, the last time I looked at the map Texas is not a southern state. I have family that lives in Texas and I have been to Corpus Christie (where the family lived) and that area is a day and night difference from what you refer to as "Southern States". The girl is 24 now it is unlikely she is just now living on her own especially if this was the kind of house she was raised in. In the article MaliciousMirth posted it says her father was "harassing" her. I would be willing to bet the release of this video was purely motivated by trying to get revenge. If that is the case the woman is using something bad that happened 7 years ago as an instrument to play on people's heart strings to lash back at her dad. So again I ask, if justice is honestly what she is looking for, why wait so long? Because plucking up the courage to do something against your abuser is sooooo easy right? Alot of people can't even tell tehir loved ones, much less the world | ||

If it was that traumatizing for her she could have gone to the police the next day. Also, who set up the video camera? you do know she has a younger sister that was in the same house right? you can see allison at the beginning of the video. the "beating judge" also says something to the effect, at the beginning, "get allison out of here." So a sister being worried for her other sister's welfare isn't an acceptable reason to hold off on releasing a video of this magnitude? secondly, how big where you at 16? when did you start standing up to your parents and saying, "I'm going to try to send you to jail for what you've done to me." Keep in mind that you have been physically and mentally abused. It's one thing to be "big and bad" on the internet. It is a completely different story when you are the victim of abuse. So by what i'm following, boys who are sexually abused by priests years and years ago, who haven't reported it till 10-20 years later, "apparently ....wasn't to worried about it...", at least according to you. So if you don't report it the next day, it wasn't that important of an event? So rape victims that don't report their assault aren't "to worried about it"? your words not mine. Hillary set up the camera her self. She said that, because things had been escalating with her father, she thought something like this might happen. And that people had called her a liar because they didn't believe that a judge would When you've walked a mile in someone else's shoes, then you can make a QUALIFIED statement. Until then educate yourself please. | ||

Oh wow, that was incredibly upsetting. And not so much because of the punishment itself, but because of the level of hate coming out from the father. It makes me ill because he appeared to be enjoying himself. He loved putting this bitch in her place, showing her who's boss. What an incredibly small, pathetic man. I don't have any real problem with physical punishment. Whatever. I'm an older dude so I had my run-ins with the big, leather belt as a young kid. It was the norm back then - hell, we even had the strap in my elementary school. But my memories of those experiences don't revolve around the punishment, but rather how I'd catch my dad afterwards and he'd have tears in his eyes - like this was the last thing in the world he'd ever want to be doing and hated doing it. That's what made me want to do better, the guilt of making someone who loves me hate themselves for having to punish his kids. That always bothered me so much more than the actual punishment. But my dad was always one hell of a guy - not like the hateful little bastard in this video. This is probably the most insightful post in the entire thread. I can relate to this as i was raised the same way. | ||

Makes me wonder just how wide-spread this stuff is. Also sad to realise that a ton of TL people will be carrying this man's torch into the next generation. | ||

you do know she has a younger sister that was in the same house right? I was not aware of this. secondly, how big where you at 16? when did you start standing up to your parents and saying, "I'm going to try to send you to jail for what you've done to me." Keep in mind that you have been physically and mentally abused. With this statement and the rest of the entire post you are speaking under the assumption that she had been mentally and physically abused. There is always the possibility that her father had an anger problem and aside from the times for discipline she could have lived in a completely loving household. Which would support her wanting help for her father not jail time. | ||

So mormons are known to have strange beliefs about technology, kinda like amish people but to a lesser extent. The fact that he could have been a religious freak makes the beating not better but it would at least explain why someone could go total retard just because his daughter downloaded some stuff. | ||

You both had shitty parents, can you imagine yourself ever hitting a child? Like WHAT THE FUCK, children are the ones who are the most destroyed by being hit, both physically and mentally, and you dont have a real problem with physical punishment? | ||

People have tears in their eyes after beating their spouse aswell, you support that too if the person that does it really really regrets it? | ||

Today Show interview and i completely agree, she could have lived in a loving household. or what she thought "loving" was suppose to be, because the physical abuse was what she had grown to know. and that might have been part of the reason for her not to come forward. everyone's definition of "love" is different though. | ||

Did you see that? She's being disobedient!!!" as if it were like "WHOOO HOOOO I get to whack her another 10 times" and also he just couldn't stand not having a belt in his own hand when the wife had it, he had to run off and get another one. It's the pleasure this man gets that makes it truely despicable. Get this guy out of any public office, fast. | ||

In the criminal courts it matters when the incident took place. So since this event took place 7 years ago, he will not be prosecuted. BUT, if there happens to be evidence of some sort that he engaged in this type of "punishment" with his youngest daughter (Allison) within the last 5 years, he'll likely be prosecuted for his acts against Allison; but not against Hillary. So now he is not only going to be investigated for this conduct against Hillary, but any conduct he's had against his daughter and ex-wife. | ||
