Cowardic

When drama happens, it happens all once. Part of the drama involved my bully, bringing up the whole mess that happened back in March, when he threatened people from Iraq. Because of an incident that pissed him off involving a pagan organization that I have nothing to do with, he decided to insult me. He called me a bitch and a few other choice names. This was an unprovoked attack. I have nothing do with the incident he was pissed about or the pagan community. He also insulted some of the other women who were involved. Normally I abhor sexism in any fashion, including chivalry (that's another post) but I find it interesting that he generally, only picks on women, teenage boys, or men who are pacifists. In other words, those he perceives as easy targets. I sent him an email, which I made public and told him I would, confronting him, telling him I would not tolerate his behavior and to leave me out of whatever issues he has. His response was to tell me I needed psychiatric help, then he did the cyber equivalent of running away. He blocked me. This man, whom I have had no contact with since March, who repeatedly says that if you have a problem with him, confront him, can't handle a confrontation. He called me a bitch, but I need psychiatric help when I tell him to leave me out of his issues. His blog consists of self-congratulatory mental masturbation and outright abuse of anyone he disapproves of. Which is anyone who doesn't agree with him. Apparently he can only be strident and unforgiving when he is surrounded by people who pat him on the back and tell him how right he is. Any dissenting voice is quickly silenced and ignored. You'd think an adult would be beyond bullying, but that isn't true. However, standing up and watching your bully slink away and hide behind a cyber shield, because he's afraid to man up to what he's said, helps a great deal. He's a coward that can not handle any confrontation. I suspect the only confrontation he desires (if he desires any at all) is one in person, so he can always resort to violence.

I am almost disappointed in his cowardice. I expected a man who would stand by his words with conviction. Instead he does not recant, apologize, or stand by them. Merely runs away back to the group of sycophants who will tell him how awesome he is. His cowardice has been exposed, however my goal now, is to not become the beast. It will be very difficult because he truly deserves it. But it is not my place to met out justice or karma. Hopefully I can manage to not become him.
