I worked with one of the victims of a man on Az Death Row. (A family member was brutally murdered). She told me how horrible it was when the time came (finally) for him to be executed and the MEDIA, et al, were pleading to spare this man the inhumane treatment of the Death Penalty. It’s as if the victim’s families were being victimized over again and NONE of the media et al, thought to ask her how she felt. It was as if the Murderer was the Victim. She would watch people protesting, pleading with signs to save this multi-murderer’s life, while ignoring her family member’s brutal murder and the other victims. It was as if the victims didn’t exist and if their names were mentioned, it was in passing, almost as if the media et al, wanted to make the victims inhuman.
Victims are constantly re-victimized. Just turning on the nightly news triggers the flashbacks. It effects what you watch in movies or TV shows. NO crime shows are allowed in my house.
It controls our emotions when birthdays, Christmas, and death dates happens.
I’ve coined a term for it, since I live it. SEASONAL GRIEF DISORDER!
My friends and family know when those dates happen they have a different crying mom who can’t be comforted on their hands.
And all those MSM sticking their mics in your face, makes it worse! Because you are going to have those flashbacks.
I see red when these jag offs plead for the life of a monster.
