The tip off was in the article where it said she died from accidentally backing into some bullets.

The same way Seth Rich committed Arkancide. 🤪

They cast that young girl perfectly...the rolling of the eyes...”Honey, it’s your father...”

(roll)

I had to laugh...looking at that, if I had EVER ignored my mother or father while they were talking to me, or rolled my eyes...

They would have both said in a commanding voice “YOU LOOK AT ME WHEN I AM TALKING TO YOU.” I learned early on that it was unacceptable, and any kind of talk back or sarcastic comment would have been sure to bring fury.

God Bless them both.

How I miss them, even after all these decades gone.

My parents were imperfect in so many ways as we all are, but they tried hard to to the right things, and I often wonder how they were able to do the good they did. We had six of us at almost constant war with each other as kids do, father away at sea or work...her doing it mostly alone.

There was no textbook on how to raise children in those days unless you wanted to read Spock’s work which would have been anathema to both of them.

Mine were old school that way, too.

And I did not DARE to disrespect them or talk back to them.

I do advocate corporal punishment for children, but not beating them. There is a difference.

My parents used the belt. You would be sent to your room to wait for your father to get home, you could hear them converse in low tones, then he would mount the stairs.

You could hear the belt being unbuckled and taken off. Then, my father would double the belt and snap it a few times coming up the stairs!

Total psychological warfare...you were whipped before he even opened the door.

Then, he would give you a serious tongue lashing (no profanity, mostly just tone) and he would whack you a few times with the belt, but it didn’t really do any harm. It was all for effect. His ominous voice and looks did most of the dirty work.

However, when my Italian-Armenian mixed mother would give us the belt, she would lose her considerable temper and leave real marks...that poor woman. Her eyes would get wild and her hair would just about stand on end. Oddly enough, it was our dad who scared us more even though he never really hurt us. Being disciplined by our mom was like weathering a storm...fierce, you could lose your life (not really, but as a kid...) and when it was over, you were safe and free again, and it was done. You could be in trouble again in five minutes.

Nobody wanted to cross my dad, though. Psychological warfare was his forte, and it worked...:)

My mom used a wooden spoon which would break before it inflicted any real harm. She told me that’s why she used it.

It was effective enough and if we were acting up, she’d go in the kitchen and rattle the wooden spoons in the drawer and we’d shape up really fast.

LOL all we had to do for a cat of ours was say “WOODEN SPOON!!” to a cat of ours and it would jump off the counter.

I’d imagine Ms. Maxwell has already planned some kind of “dead man’s switch” insurance policy in the event she is suicided.

If Epstein did the same they are certainly taking a long time to release it.

“Ms. Clinton asked us to publish the obituary on Friday and we got our dates mixed up,” said a Times spokesperson.>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The TIMES got the Arkanicide come suicide murder date wrong.

These schills like Clinton are so above the law, (sarc.)

Guess COVID-19 is a more believable death than hanging yourself off a 5 foot high bed...
