Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

We still have time to mess this up!

It’s time for the GOP to dust off that post-2012 autopsy, completely ignore it, and light the party on fire again.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Everybody saw this coming.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Lady sprays cops with breast milk… FROM HER OWN BREAST; is mind-numbingly awesome.

I want to shake this woman’s hand.

Sometimes you read something so fantastic that it reaffirms your faith in the awesomeness of humanity:

A woman faces several charges after she allegedly sprayed deputies with breast milk as they tried to detain her over the weekend.

The incident occurred early Saturday morning near the Bridgewater Banquet & Conference Center on Sawmill Parkway.

According to the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office, deputies were called to the area after receiving calls about a domestic dispute. When they arrived, a man told them that he had been attending a wedding at the facility with his wife, who had gotten drunk and struck him several times before locking herself in a car.

Delaware County Sheriff Walter L. Davis III said deputies tried to talk with the woman, who was identified as Stephanie Robinette, 30, of Westerville, but she refused to cooperate.

“When deputies attempted to remove Robinette from the vehicle, she advised the deputies that she was a breast feeding mother and proceeded to remove her right breast from her dress and began spraying deputies and the vehicle with her breast milk,” Davis said.

Robinette says that alcoholism runs in her family and that she is going to seek help. Good for her, I say. I certainly hope she gets the help she needs, but I really hope that she’ll never stop spraying people in the face with her breast milk.

You know what? Robinette should join forces with Paula Wolf, the woman who shot blowdarts at people because she likes to hear them say ‘ouch.’ They should start a crime syndicate. The Breast Milk Blow-dart Bandits, we could call them!

Or, or, or she could work security for the lactivists!

Stephanie Robinette and her Breasts of Fury — I like it.

    Used to work in Westerville. When I left it was still dry. Like many military bases used to have bars right out side the gates, Westerville had a few bars right over the city limits so the citizens could still get their drunk on easy enough. Also like a lot of military installations drinking was one of the only things to do and a good reason you drove outside the city.
    And it is the only town I’ve been in with it’s own temperance museum.

    Thinking that since it was evolved to be imbibed by infants with little immunity and no stomach for much of anything, it would be closer to tears than saliva in terms of the health risks it poses to others. That said, if every kid did it, I don’t think it would be a good thing, or would lead to a greater acceptance of public breast feeding. Dumb drunk people are still dumb drunk people.

    But, hey, maybe the DA will follow No one of Importance’s suggestion and charge her with assault with a deadly weapon. Because people die every day after being exposed to breast milk. Fact.

    I think people are thinking about the cases of infants being infected with HIV after being nursed by mothers with HIV. But unless one of the cops decided to settle in for a nursing session, I think the chance of catching AIDS from being sprayed with breast milk is so small that getting it that way would be proof that there is a God and he hates you.

    I don’t think we need to turn this into some kind of case about “well the cops could’ve gotten HIV!” or “breast milk is better than urine is better than poop is better than vomit is better than blood.”

    To me (and my perspective is likely different since I’ve tended bar for nigh on 14 years now), it’s all about, hey drunk-ass, please don’t whip out that boob and squirt your milk on me. That’s rather disrespectful and socially unacceptable, isn’t it? Are there degrees to how awful something like that is? I’d call it a minor misdemeanor and a good war story for the cop to one-up his bartender with next time he’s at the pub, though.

    Felanius Kootea

    June 28, 2011 at 2:35 am

    @Mnemosyne You are right. According to the CDC, the risk of HIV transmission from even a bottle of breast milk is vanishingly small. I think people are reacting more to the ick factor of being sprayed with alcohol-laced breast milk.

Just wanted to check before I state that I find it simply odd to be that drunk or to have that reaction but I’d have laughed at reading it too. I find it odd how damn near everything on the internet seems to draw people who wish to earnestly fight with those who may actually think and see things in a way that is not like them.

    Since forcing people into contact with bodily fluids like breast milk, saliva and blood isn’t exactly a no-risk activity for the recipient.

    So perhaps you should follow your own advice and not be such a fucking fuckwit. Lighten up, Francis.

    the risk of HIV transmission from even a bottle of breast milk is vanishingly small.

    True. But that’s not the only disease it’s capable of transmitting:

    There are a few situations, however, in which breastfeeding is not advised. The following recommendations apply in the United States. Recommendations are often different in developing countries, where the risk of infant mortality is higher if the baby does not breastfeed.
    HIV infection or HTLV-1: Breastfeeding is not recommended.
    Infectious (contagious) tuberculosis: Breastfeeding is safe after the mother has undergone treatment and is no longer contagious.
    Hepatitis A: Breastfeeding is safe after the mother receives a dose of gamma globulin.
    Hepatitis B: Breastfeeding is safe after the baby receives a dose of Hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG). The baby should also be started on the first of three doses of Hepatitis B vaccine.
    Herpes simplex: Breastfeeding is safe if there are no lesions on the breast.
    Chicken pox: Breastfeeding is safe as soon as the mother is noninfectious, meaning all spots are crusted over.
    Lyme disease: Breastfeeding is safe as soon as the mother initiates treatment.

    In Australia, spitting on a cop will get you jail time (regardless of infectious status). I guess the magistrates would see breast milk spraying as much the same.

    Personally I think this woman should only be prosecuted for being a moron without a moron permit, but as far as being forced to endure exposure to any substance originating inside someone’s body? Including new born babies? I’m agin it. My own mother decided to spare me breast milk, I don’t want some random drunk stranger trying to make up the deficit, thank you.

    Mnemosyne, how do you get ‘prosecuting someone for assault with a deadly weapon’ from ‘not exactly no risk activity’? The word ‘prosecute’ or ‘deadly weapon’ or indeed ‘illegal’ do not appear in my quote. You made it up, and are now asking me to resile from a hyperemotional position of your own construction. Truly Tim worth behaviour.

    Breast milk is low risk, not no risk, and a copy doing their job of controlling drunken idjits doesn’t deserve to have it spattered all over them.

    Well, gosh, now that I know the cops could have potentially been exposed to chicken pox, I’m totally on your side that this was a health-endangering thing for her to do. Even the slightest chance of being exposed to chicken pox is no laughing matter.

    I have no quibble with people being grossed out at the thought being sprayed by someone’s bodily fluid even if I find it funny. It’s the hand-wringing “oh noes, they could have caught some horrible disease from her breast milk!” that I’m finding worthy of mockery, and your pearl-clutching was probably the one that went the furthest.

    Sounds like probably the only real danger to the cop from her breast milk was alcohol poisoning. Now that the Age of Tasing is upon us, I have a somewhat higher threshold of outrage for insults to cops. Getting squirted with boob juice doesn’t really make the cut, imo. I think it’s hilarious and applaud her presence of mind.

    I love your posts pointing out social injustice, and support your right to piss off as many people as possible as often as possible. But since you only like the company of those who agree with you unquestioningly even over dubious shit like weaponised breast milk, I’m rather glad I’m never going to be a friend of yours.

    This whole scene amounts to theft from the baby or at least waste of a precious substance. In my experience, milk was not that easy to produce and the volume decreased significantly with the slightest excuse. Human milk should be reserved for the infant and not used for any other purpose.

    I am hoping that someone was taking care of the child during all of this nonsense. From here, it looks like that kid has a rough row to hoe ahead of him.

    I can see that someone who has to deal with drunks in her professional life wouldn’t find it quite as funny since you’re thinking of the multiple times you’ve had to deal with similar incidents.

    Um. People who’ve had to deal with drunks in their personal lives are also less likely to be cracking up. The woman says that alcoholism runs in her family and avers that she’s going to seek help, which is a pretty clear indication that she views herself as an alcoholic, which in turn is a pretty clear indication that she drinks to excess regularly. She’s nursing a baby. With booze. While, um, allegedly beating on her husband.

    You don’t have to be a prude or a disease phobic to think that despite the admittedly amusing visuals, this situation is pretty fucking sad; you just have to have been around alcoholics a good amount.

    Let’s try it this way:

    The incident occurred early Saturday morning near the Bridgewater Banquet & Conference Center on Sawmill Parkway. According to the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office, deputies were called to the area after receiving calls about a domestic dispute. When they arrived, a woman told them that she had been attending a wedding at the facility with her husband, who had gotten drunk and struck her several times before locking himself in a car.

    Hey, that’s a comedic set-up if I ever heard one! But pretty boring, isn’t it? Some guy beats his wife? DULLSVILLE!

    I’m dying to know what bodily fluids he sprayed on the cops, which might make this something worth worrying about.

    That’s it, pun delivered, thread over? So it’s not actually “awesome” to get drunk and beat up your husband in public, or even funny? Wow! How quickly people change their mind after, y’know, READING THE STORY.

    How about raising her kid in an abusive household? Not “awesome” enough for you, ABL? At least you “hope she gets the help she needs”. (The abused spouse can go fuck himself, I guess?)

    Maybe she could drown her pets too and she’d be back in everyone’s good graces.

    I hate to say this, ABL, but it seems questionable to applaud what this woman did. Maybe it would make a memorable and hilarious scene in a lowbrow comedy movie, like something from, say, the American Pie or Hangover series. In real life, though, a drunk behaving badly is never funny, as already noted. Neither is domestic violence, whether inflicted by a husband or a wife.

    As acts of violence go, a woman spraying people with milk from her breast seems pretty feeble. And the prosecutor had the good sense not to charge Stephanie Robinette with attacking the cops with a deadly substance. That would have been an overreaction. I expect that at her sentencing, the judge will into account take her lack of a previous record and the fact that she’s seeking professional help for her drinking problem.

    Yes, it’s true — if a drunk man hit his wife, locked himself in the car, and sprayed the cops who tried to arrest him with breast milk from his lactating breast, I would find that funny. Heck, if he wasn’t lactating himself but used a bottle of breast milk that was in the car, that would be hilarious, too. Because — pro tip — breast milk used as a weapon is what the funny part of the story is, not the drunkeness or the domestic abuse.

    The person in the story is a sad alcoholic who feeds her kid that alcohol — remember what the hilarious flying breast milk is used for when it’s not flying? — and physically abuses her husband.

    Nonalcoholic, sober woman losing her shit and spraying an officer with breast milk? That’d be slightly crass but entertaining.

    Right, sure. And I bet if a guy got drunk and beat on his wife, I’m sure that’s exactly how it would have gone down, Mnemosyne – exactly the same.

    The post would still talk about how “awesome” this guy is and how he should “never stop” his behavior, and would say “good for him” that he’s trying to treat the alcoholism that clearly made him abuse his wife (the same sort of alcoholism that made Mel Gibson antisemitic, made Weiner send crotch pics to women, etc.)

    And there’d be tons of posts saying “lighten up” and even defending this guy against police charges, although those charges might be the only thing keeping him from going home and knocking his wife’s teeth out.

    And he’d be presented as a hero of “grrl power”, and no one would even mention the word “abuse” in the thread until I commented.

    Because no one did mention “abuse” until I commented. Go ahead, check for yourself.

    And in a (NO DOUBT HILARIOUS!!!) story about domestic abuse, that doesn’t strike you as strange? At all? That everyone was focused on HIV transmission through breast milk until I mentioned, y’know, the report is that this woman beat up her husband?

    Pro-tip: think before posting.

    Hello,AAA… I spent 13 years in law enforcement as a civilian evidence tech (read property clerk) and CSI… I’ve worked to help prosecute lots of domestic violence perps (most of them male, some of the female, from all walks of life, all ethnicities, socio-economic backgrounds, educated and not). Nothing funny about DV. I’ve volunteered time and finances to the local DV safehouse. I haven’t simply slapped a “Support Our Troops” magnet ribbon on the back of my car (so to speak) while doing nothing tangible to support our troops.

    Nonetheless, the story does have its comic elements (to many of us). Because we can chuckle does not mean we’re mindless brutes.

    Yeah, that kind of took the wind out of the awesomeness sails for me. If she’s guilty of the domestic violence, that’s another strike against her. And if she’s got as much of a drinking problem as she seems to, she more than likely drank while pregnant as well. That’s sad, not hilarious.

    And there’s no indication the cops were anything less than professional. However, if, for instance, some cop was being a jerk with her just because she mouthed off at him or she were, say, a participant in a protest march who was being manhandled or disrespected by a cop and she sprayed him with breast milk, that would truly be awesome and freaking hilarious! I’d be the first one ROFLMA. It’s kind of roll-the-eyes and head-shaking amusing as it is, but awesomeness would require an actual conscious sticking-it-to-someone-who-deserved-it element for me.

    ABL:

    Most of us can see the humor involved with spraying someone with breast milk. I kind of thought it was obvious here, but let me try and explain why not everyone is seeing this as being as awesome as you are.

    I think where you lost some people (like me) was the following key places:

    1. This wasn’t a “sticking it to the man” type protest where the attack was justified based on the cop being overbearing, abusing power, etc. Quite the opposite, I find myself very sympathetic towards the cops because the domestic violence calls are hard enough that adding onto it being sprayed with bodily fluids (in addition to the normal uncomfortableness with responding to these situations) really goes a long way towards robbing this of any juvenile humor.

    If this was a cop getting what he deserved in a funny way and not a cop being blatantly mistreated by what is, from the description, an utterly drunken, abusive ***** that you’re highlighting as the hero in this little tale then maybe the reaction would be different.

    2. Many people don’t really find the whole “baby being forced to drink seriously tainted breast milk filled with alcohol” very funny either.

    3. Or this happening at someone’s wedding.

    4. Most folks got past the “Beavis and Butthead” style humor years once they left the teens. It isn’t that I’m incapable of getting a small smile out of this, it’s that it is FAR from being so unbearably funny as to outweigh the fact that this is a pretty sad case here.

    Basically, a lot of people are able to see just a LITTLE beyond the “OMG she whipped out her can and sprayed someone with breast milk. HILARIOUS!” It’s just a touch amusing, but way overwhelmed by the kind of nasty parts of this little tale combined with your “this woman ROCKS” delivery of something that, if a guy did something similar, would be not at all be funny.

    Sure, you could do that. OR you could not get so upset that your sense of humor is non universal that you need to lash out by telling people that they are lacking a sense of humor, unfun, need to get a grip or whatever. (As you have in your replies in the thread here.)

    Either way works. Personally, I think the approach that involves not needing to lash out at the people reading and commenting on your contributions to be the better one to take.
