I’m not proud of it, but I have my share of prejudices. I guess we all do. I just can’t help it.

Today, I was twice hit with the story about the black woman who was held captive and tortured for a week in West Virginia. Once, it was read to me out of the newspaper at work, which is a lovely addition to a work day, which in itself is always a pleasant occurrence.  I didn’t get the visuals with it until I got home and read the story online.

Why is it that psychopaths always look like psychopaths, and yet people always go on the news when they’ve discovered that these psychopaths have done something psycho and are like, “I never would have suspected he/she would do something like that.” How is that? I see these people through a computer screen and think “Bitches, you crazy.”

But there was one thought that I had when I saw these trashy-ass peeps’ photos online that seems to be a recurring stereotype with me, my repetitive prejudice that I can’t seem to shake. I read what they have done and see the images of where they live and how crazy they look, and I think about what kind of people could do something like this. And then I think… I bet they vote Republican.
