Resolution "LOW-BUY" 2014! Who wants to play?

[jennyap]

They've dropped the charges. Apparently where they had both consumed alcohol (Rob was NOT drunk, he'd had a couple beers), you can beat the shit out of someone to the point of breaking their fucking orbital bones and it's A OKAY YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH IT

I"m shaking with rage I've never been so angry in my life, this guy has done this to THREE PEOPLE NOW, and they will not press charges. I don't even feel safe in my neighborhood

Oh honey, that is just unbelievably wrong. I'm so sorry.

@HerGreyness give us pics, we need to see!

I'm so disturbed by this outcome. What legal reason did they give you for not pressing charges? Is it possible to file an order of protection or restraining order for you both to be legally protected from this goon (and have it documented)? Maybe you guys can contact the local media or national media (CNN, etc.) to have their investigative team make a story about the obvious corruption within the local police department. It's a long shot but you never know who might catch wind of it and help resolve this. Public safety is important, as is justice for the victimized, so make a stink (only if you are comfortable with that) from the local government all the way to the governor of your state. This shouldn't go unpunished and you shouldn't have to move to feel safe. Hugs and prayers for you and your boyfriend as well as your support system.

We're working on that. First he's going to talk to the district attorney. Depending on what they do, we'll go from there.

What the hell? There HAS to be some way to find some kind of justice, that's f*cking ridiculous!

Can't wait for the pics @Hergreyness. So last night my oldest son graduated from 8th grade! I was truly the proudest mom in the world. Actually I cried, I know lol. My son has autism, so it was just a big deal for me. Only downer was his asshole father. I think his teacher knew I didn't care too much for me & vise versa. So once they left the gym all the kids went outside to celebrate, so actually gave him his diploma! Upon all the hoopla, taking pics I didn't realize we didn't have it, till my older cousin asked if I knew he had it & sent a pic of him with it. She said he stated he wasn't giving it back. I called and ask for it, but no. So I called the school to see if I could get another one, so praying for that. I was not gonna let that man upset & bother me again, he can enjoy his miserable life without me. But you ladies did motivate me to go all out with me makeup lol. I'm glad I got to use a lot of my products that get no luv since I don't go anywhere lol.

Congratulations to you & your son!!! You must be soo proud. I myself have a specials needs daughter and our kids have to work a lot harder to achieve milestones like these. You should also be proud of yourself!! I know the battles we have to fight for our kids. ️ To you and your son..he has a bright future ahead ️

I understand what you're saying, Liba. Sometimes a bad event can make us reassess our lives and end friendships that are no longer best for us. I have done that myself. Although I didn't like the bad event, I managed to learn from it and use it as a catalyst to make positive changes.

True.

Aww, thank you so much. I really appreciate that, and agree we as mom's of special needs children have to a lot & fight more for our kids. I'm sure your daughter is just as glam as you lol.

We're working on that. First he's going to talk to the district attorney. Depending on what they do, we'll go from there.

I can't believe that, are you kidding me, what does him having a couple drinks have to do with anything?! He was Frickin assulted & their not doing anything? I agree, go to the da & see if you can presume charges, especially for his medical bills.

 

[walkingdead]

You're right! She loves make up just as much as I do! Probably even more!!

Aww, thank you so much. I really appreciate that, and agree we as mom's of special needs children have to a lot & fight more for our kids. I'm sure your daughter is just as glam as you lol.

Anyone doing any new challenges lately? I'm thinking about one for my new AA stuff. I've been away and only packed 1 lipstick from that collection but I'm home now and ready to play! I might try and see how many different looks I can come up with just using the AA stuff (even if I think it might clash). I have 3 lipsticks and 3 eyeshadows so that's 9 combinations. ALSO. I counted my lipsticks and compared to my beginning of the year count.. 13 to 26! They bred while I wasn't looking!! Ready to get the low buy train back on the tracks.. I don't regret anything I got from AA. I'm actually so relieved I got everything I did since I found some HG level items.. but no more 10 item hauls for me!

I am BEYOND appalled! This has got to be one of the most asinine things I have ever heard! Drinking doesn't give someone the right to assault you! NO WAY is this legal!
And I agree you definitely need to get a restraining order against this guy!! Please make that a first priority this week!! The assault will be justification enough. And that way if he does try to get near either one of you in the future, they will have no out but to press charges against him if he violates it!
I'm sorry I'm so "!!!!!!!" I'm just furious for you hun!

 

[Paint&Ink Chick]

You're right! She loves make up just as much as I do! Probably even more!! Lol, how old is she? I have a little girl as well & she loves mu, nail polish. She said she likes being fancy lol. I think a no buy challenge would be great @veronikawithak. I was bummed I didn't get to the colors for the awereness.

Aww, thank you so much. I really appreciate that, and agree we as mom's of special needs children have to a lot & fight more for our kids. I'm sure your daughter is just as glam as you lol.

Awww! Congrats to the both of you! That's great. Don't worry about his dad. I'm sure you can get another diploma for him to hold on to.

That's some fucking bullshit. Excuse my language, but it is. If I could make a suggestion, I'd call your local media stations and tell them this story. I'd also start a petition on change.org. Sad to say, you have to shame institutions into doing the right thing. I can count on numerous fingers and toes the number of local, national, and international stories that wouldn't have gotten any traction if things like petitions and social media weren't used to embarrass folks. Nothing worse than a PR nightmare. You have every right to be pissed off. Use that anger to your advantage.

Yup, this right here. You gotta embarrass mofos sometimes.
