CBS reporter Lara Logan is vowing to return to work ... and she's telling friends what happened to her in Egypt will not destroy her.
Sources familiar with the situation tell us the details of Logan's assault are horrible -- but Lara is back with her kids and is vowing to go back to work within weeks.

As does this knuckledragger (eyeroll).
Nothing calls down the thunder faster than acknowledging the obvious differences between the genders.

Her comment wasn't deleted, it's still there. If you can't take debating with others who have different opinions, then don't participate.
Unfortunately what happened to her was horrible....but what Western woman, in the "midst of animals" (as I believe were your words) would expect?
I find nothing "classless" in mary's post. Again....personal responsibility.
They are probably a bunch of metro-sexuals who fed her to the wolves just so they could survive.
Seriously though, I don't imagine there was much they could've done in a mob of several hundred lathered up muslims. The key here was the timely exercise of some good ol common sense by whomever was calling the shots.
Thanks for the advice, but you don’t know my husband. His ego is massaged daily in his career and in many ways at home by me and our son. He’s seen me in action with a weapon and he knows I’m capable of defending our home when he’s away, (or when he’s asleep).
Mama Grizzlies and all that, you know.
Al Gore owes that woman a pain & suffering award.
I would say they entire left owes that woman; however, she is one of them and deserved whatever she had coming to her.
I know, I sound heartless, but again, as I’ve repeated several HUNDRED times in this thread alone.......PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY!!!
Now a days, people just don’t seem to “into” it!
So much for the effectiveness of the body bag. 83 percent of native Egyptian women who were recently surveyed said that they had been sexually harassed. the Egyptian Centre for Womens Rights reported that 62 percent of Egyptian men admitted to harassing women. - up to 80 percent of women wear one form of veil or another — be it a headscarf or a full-body veil that covers the face too — so you would think it was obvious that sexual harassment had nothing to do with the way a woman dresses.
http://www.cihrs.org/English/NewsSystem/Articles/277.aspx a Cairo-based NGO released the first major survey of women’s experiences in this area; it concluded that 83% of Egyptian females and 98% of foreign females had been exposed to some form of sexual harassment in Egypt almost half of them on a daily basis.

Much easier to hold someone else entirely accountable.
Trouble is some refuse to be held accountable.
I know, I sound heartless...

Lx, you said:
“The only proper response in this thread is like your first sentence.”
You CAN NOT DICTATE THE ONLY PROPER RESPONSE!
We are all free to make our own responses.
Please go to some liberal forum where only dictated proper responses are allowed.
I don't dictate anything, you could have ignored my post but you didn't because you're obviously the kind of person who gets their feelings hurt when someone gets the better of them.
The proper response is to have respect and sympathy for someone who has such a horrible tragedy unless of course it was Hitler, but for some reason, I doubt that would bother you.
You realize there are new classes of drugs that can help you without all the side effects of the old ones. Tell the Doctor you get bent out of shape when someone you don't know posts something you don't like also point out, you think you control the rules of the place where you are actually a guest. If you get that, you might become something other than a Liberal attempting to sound like a Conservative.
What's your ID on DU?
We are all free to make our own responses.
Make an offensive response like racism or tell us how great O is and see how free you are to post what you want.
Reading comprehension problems? I said 'Make' not made racist...remarks. Lara Logan was supposed to have protection but they got separated (more reading problems?) What bothers me is that there was not one man (that I know of) who tried to protect here.
Her comment wasn't deleted, it's still there. If you can't take debating with others who have different opinions, then don't participate.
1) It wasn't deleted because it didn't have any of the offensive things I mention, again with the reading problems???
I love debating people who have different opinions than I do I learn a lot that way because I'm not always right, could you or her say that and mean it? You two have the exact same problem, you both think you're smarter than everyone else so of course, your opinion is the only correct one. Sad. You two have a nice day now.
Holy Moly, is that real? Did she fall in? Don’t tell me she jumped in to ‘play’ with a Polar Bear?
I feel bad for her. Is she still alive? What was her reason? Did she have a teacher that said, we’re all mammals, it’s man that is the reason they attack us.
Please tell me someone pushed her and that she didn’t jump in by herself, what was the next deadly beast, a Tiger? I’ve got a couple of kittehs, a Tiger is just a big cat, I think I’ll just jump in.
Ouch, the title of the photo is:http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u51/NoGrayZone/mauledbypolarbear.jpg
I don’t know if NoGrayZone added his own title but it looks accurate.
I hope they didn’t kill the Polar bear. To the bear, she was just prey.
What are you suggesting?
Are you claiming that Western women who honor their solemn duty to stay home and raise their children properly, are no better off than Muslim women --who are forced into a closeted existence by Sharia?
