Politic?

This is a blog dedicated to a personal interpretation of political news of the day. I attempt to be as knowledgeable as possible before commenting and committing my thoughts to a day's communication.

How - Is - It - Possible?

What is it about predators and serial killers, that they cannot see the humanity in other people, that they are capable of horrendous criminal acts, of tormenting, torturing and murdering those that they terrorize, yet they retain a soft spot in their warped psyches for their significant others? Clifford Olson would not divulge where he had secreted the bodies of the children he had abused and slaughtered unless he received a substantial sum of money for each location revealed. The money to be given to his wife, to ensure her financial stability.

How touching. And now, another luridly-bizarre predator, pederast, misogynist-murderer, revealing his methodology in tracking, stalking and abducting women, insists his first priority is to ensure his wife is well taken care of. This disgusting creature whose erratic behaviour and sick fascination with girls, their intimate apparel, with young attractive women and their lingerie, had no compassion or hesitation for the harm he inflicted on others, but wanted to make certain his wife retained an economic future.

He was, like the Nazis, who scrupulously documented all their crimes against humanity, and more specifically, the Jews of Europe, consumed with the need to carefully and meticulously document all of his perversions, his conquests and his fetish-objects. And it was these items, the notes, the photographs and videos, the hundreds of personal items of underwear that stood witness against the man, as he pleaded guilty to all 82 charges brought against him.

At risk of seeming naive, how is it possible that a woman, long married to a man she is purported to love and who purportedly reciprocates that emotion, has no knowledge of her husband's psychosis? How is it possible? One would have to be utterly remote, disinterested, shut away within oneself - which likely Col. Russell Williams was, to a degree - to not 'notice' irrational behaviour, and the strange little tics that made up this man's strange life.

Over four hundred items, ranging from young girls' Disney underwear, to that of mature women; photographs, copious notes, videos, baby items and blankets were secreted around about a house that this husband-and-wife shared, and a cottage, as well. The house was described as being extremely tidy. How is it possible that none of this ever came to the attention of an attentive, tidy-minded house-owner?

That having been said, there are some who no doubt feel pity for Col. Williams' wife, considering her to represent yet another victim of his sick desires. Does that then explain why she appears as anxious as he to ensure that she will not suffer financially from the fall-out of her husband's fall from the grace of his assured future as a high-ranking officer in the Canadian armed forces?

That she girded herself for the potential of losing ownership of substantial properties, against a civil law suit brought against her husband's disgusting crimes by one of his traumatized victims? What kind of mentality might that represent? So overwhelmed with grief over the fate of those poor innocent victims of her husband's mad lust and lunatic violence that she insists on her rights.

Is there any real question about her financial future given that she is an executive with a local branch of a national charity? She is capable of fending for herself against future adversities. Which is far more than could be said for the targeted victims of her husband's psychopathy.

Harsh, but then so is the reality of what has occurred.
