Hermione, in Brian's line of work they call it "wardrobe". He can write it off, I guess.

OMG! I actually like (liked) Brian, but that coat has sleeze written all over it. I can't imagine he'd be on Sesame Street. What are they thinking? LOL at Herm's comments!

Interesting to me that the bond charge for battering his wife was half of what it was for injuring the puppy.

That's disgusting. Someone should shoot HIM and batter HIM. (I'm more insensed about the animal. I'm not sure what that says about me....)

Lori -- that's the same thing I was going to say! Makes sense, then, that we're more upset about him shooting the puppy than we are about hitting his girl... Turns out we should be -- it's a more serious crime to hit a puppy than a human! lol.

Not understanding this view.... Are we saying that the woman should have known better than to allow him to batter her, while the puppy was an innocent victim? Why is the crime of battery against a woman less offensive than abuse of an animal? Just trying to understand the thought processes involved in this view. I personally find them equally disgusting and offensive.

This "hits" into my own training....as a culture, we find violence offensive and cruel, however, we find it particularly offensive when the victim is helpless (children and animals). Adult women who are battered get sympathy - yes - but less sympathy than children (and animals for the most part). It is still violence and it is still wrong. They just seem to evoke a different emotional response because of the huge power differential. FWIW.

Well since she punched him I'm assuming she can take care of herself. The doggie can't.

Also, we don't know what the level of "battering" was, yet we know the puppy was shot thru with an arrow. Personally, I'd rather be shoved around than shot with an arrow.

I would rather my DH hit ME than harm ANY animal or child. Spy, I agree that we are more enraged about child/animal abuse cuz they are helpless.

Goodness, I am so out of the loop. I didn't hear about this until today and I live in Douglas County! A guy at work, who isn't even a Survivor fan (has never seen an ep) came over talking to me about it, and I'm all "I have NO idea what you are talking about). I didn't even know Heidik lived in Douglas County. Anyhoo, he has always been one of my most favorite Survivor winners, just because I thought he played a masterful game, but I will have to re-evaluate that. I mean, this doesn't change his game skills, just don't think I can hear his name without getting steamed about this puppy thing. I took my dog to the vet today and a reported was in interviewing some of the nurses about the puppy that was shot. They apparently treated the puppy, though I don't know whether they treated him for this or if they are just the pup's regular vet.
