Should Abbey Martin Be Raped?

[kalm]

Or just killed?

Martin had criticized Kyle in the past for describing Iraqis as “savages” in his book. She also described the American Sniper movie as “dangerous propaganda that sanitizes a mass murdering psycho.” But it was her shirt that appears to have set off a campaign of harassment against her.

This week, conservative websites posted a picture of Martin wearing a “F*ck Chris Kyle” shirt. She had uploaded a photo of the shirt to her Instagram account last week. One website, which incorrectly identified her as a “liberal artist,” called on readers to “publicly shame” her for her “treasonous actions.”

The reaction on social media was even more visceral. Users of Twitter and Facebook have mentioned raping and beheading her, threatened to murder her, told her to kill herself, and bombarded her with misogynistic insults. Addicting Info reported that one person called on American Sniper fans to “put on our raping shoes and find this b*tch.”

“F*cking c*nt. How dare you disgrace his name like that. He gave his life so you can have yours. F*cking b*tch. Don’t worry I know where you live thanks to your ip address. And don’t worry I’m a Marine,” said Jamie Lugo in a message shared by Martin. “So u won’t see me coming. I’m going to cause you pain beyond your imagination.” He later added: “Tic toc times running out.”

Other journalists, including Rania Khalek and Max Blumenthal, have been subjected to death threats and online harassment for their criticism the film American Sniper.

“Very telling that the #ChrisKyle fans who tell me he ‘died for my freedom’ to wear clothes are threatening to rape & kill me for free speech,” Martin wrote on Twitter.

I'm very disappointed in this response.

She can say whatever she wants. Just like I can say "Fuck her."

There's a difference between saying fuck her and threatening to track her down and rape her.

[andy7171]

What the fuck do I care what happens to the dumb bitch?

Sounds like some of the shit said about Palin.

Where was this manufactured outrage then?

Actually there is exactly zero difference until there is actually physical contact. Words are words.

One website, which incorrectly identified her as a “liberal artist,”

All other things aside, I am wondering why the author of the article says she was "incorrectly" identified as a liberal artist. I googled around and though she is identified as a journalist she is also identified as an artist. If you click on the "About Me" tab at http://www.abbymartin.org/gallery.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; you will see that the artist the site features appears to be her. And I certainly think she appears to be liberal. Take this for instance:

Anyway, to me it looks like "liberal artist" is an accurate description. It may not be the only possible description of her but it does appear to be accurate.

[CID1990]

She's allowed to be wrong.

Not only that, she allowed to be a fvcktard cvnt, which she is.

That doesnt excuse direct threats against her- they should have to answer fir not only the threats, but also for giving her poisonous mindset a wider audience.

The best treatment for twats like this is the silent treatment.

I suspect currently unemployed, 9/11 truther, Abby Martin is getting exactly what she wanted. This woman is no journalist... performance artist is closer to the truth. Unfortunately, the lunatic-fringe conks took the bait. Oh well, like the scum that were killed in Texas at the "free speech" event, criminal fools tend to out themselves.

Somebody needs to pay a visit to this guy (if this is real):

“F*cking c*nt. How dare you disgrace his name like that. He gave his life so you can have yours. F*cking b*tch. Don’t worry I know where you live thanks to your ip address.

These people that think American Sniper is a "Pew Pew Pew 'Murica" movie weren't watching the same film I was.

Or maybe they have never seen it but choose to make stupid comments anyways.

[andy7171]

Personally. I prefer Lone Survivor compared to Sniper. But they are both on the same level of Great War movies.

Kalm would prefer the story the shows the thought process of the asshole enemy.

To each his own.

So let me get this straight. I'm supposed to feel sorry for a cunt who shits all over the grave of a SEAL who did his job and did it well and was then murdered? His family put up with years of job-related separation, then years of war-related mental health issues, then the trauma of losing dad/husband, and now this cunt wants to further traumatize his wife and kids.

Boo fucking hoo. She knows exactly what she's doing and the reaction she would get.

It would be unfortunate if she was raped or murdered. But also funny, IMHO.

No doubt the latter, Pwns. No doubt.

Just to clarify, Chris Kyle was a NAVY Seal.

[Chizzang]

Don't both of them (Kyle and Martin) kind of deserve each other..?



The universal laws of attraction are perfectly in play here
We all get exactly what we give
we get back what we put out there


Yawn... mutual death threats (jeeze no kidding) what a shocker

Fuck you! I'm claiming him.
