South Africa - sentenced to 5 minutes for murder

Krugersdorp's Ann-Marie Engelbrecht, convicted of killing her husband Jaco, was on Friday sentenced to be detained for five minutes.

In passing sentence, Judge Kathy Satchwell ordered that Engelbrecht be "detained until the rising of the court" for tea.

In a long, detailed sentence explanation, Satchwell said that Engelbrecht served her sentence in advance as "none of us will ever know or comprehend her suffering over the years".

Satchwell pointed out that Engelbrecht's husband had been a control freak with a history of physical and alcohol abuse.

Engelbrecht had not been in control of herself on the day of the murder (June 29, 2002) and, while not being completely responsible for her actions, had in fact "programmed herself" to murder him.

The relatives of the deceased were unhappy and one family member told Sapa reporters that she was "speechless".

Six months after the Engelbrechts' marriage everything turned sour.

Nine years later Ann-Marie Engelbrecht thumb-cuffed her husband's hands behind his back and sat in an adjacent room as the air in the plastic bag she had placed over his head slowly ran out.

Women are Second Class Citizens?

By the time they're 8, many girls already see themselves as second-class citizens.

That's why the province is now targeting girls from 8 to 14 in a $1.4 million campaign on dating violence and sexual harassment, said Sandra Pupatello, Ontario's minister responsible for women's issues.

The campaign, announced yesterday, encourages equal, healthy relationships between boys and girls, and includes an interactive website (www.equalityrules.ca/en/index.html) and ads.

Pupatello said she was surprised at how early the seeds of abuse are planted in children through negative self-images.

In fact, the campaign had to be reworked after it was realized through focus groups that material was needed for both teens and younger girls.

While most of the click-on scenarios feature boys bullying girls, some young females surfing the site last night suggested there should be messages about girls bullying girls, too.

"Girls being mean to each other happens every day — one actual fist fight between girls broke out at school this fall," said Sophie Tassone, 13, who tried out the activities with classmate Shannon Grant.

The various Web scenarios show boys insulting, controlling or ridiculing girls, and then suggest how girls can respond when that happens.

Their favourite was a cartoon about a guy harassing a girl through text messaging "UR Hot!" — something Shannon said "relates to our life at this age."

"Guys are always messaging girls telling them they're hot, and if it happens 24/7, it can get creepy."

"A lot of guys do think they're better than girls," Sophie said, "and it's really annoying, so everyone can relate to these scenes in some way."

At times, the girls said, the advice goes too far — like recommending a girl call Kids Help Phone, the national toll-free advice line, if a boy is harassing her by text-message.

"That's not realistic. I'd just tell my girlfriends," Shannon said.

But the website "does help girls know they're not the only ones with this kind of problem," Sophie said.

Pupatello said yesterday the government was "astounded by 8-year-olds that have already determined in their own mind that they are the lesser of the sexes."

"It is quite unbelievable to think that 8-year-olds have realized they're just a girl and therefore they're destined to be the lesser in a relationship," she said.

"We've got to change that view because that ultimately drives the kind of relationships you'll have in your lifetime. Governments historically have always dealt with the issue of domestic violence after the fact. If we don't get to the root cause of these issues, we're never going to make headway."

The campaign features a television and movie theatre commercial, and a website, EqualityRules.ca, designed to teach girls how to recognize abuse and regain the upper hand in negative encounters and relationships.

At EqualityRules.ca, the section aimed at preteens asks whether girls and boys can be friends. Ten-year-old Emily Gale says, "Sure! I'm friends with a boy — Gavin — and so is my friend Erin, although in my class, girls and boys don't really play too much together."

The Grade 5 student at north Toronto's Maurice Cody Public School visibly enjoyed surfing the new website last night, clicking on cartoons that deliver straight-talking messages against "men bossing their wives around and hitting them."

"I think some boys should go on the website, too. It would be good for them to see what it says about respect and healthy relationships."

The government campaign also includes $1.2 million in grants to community groups set up education programs.

But do you know why young Canadian girls see themselves as second-class citizens?

Well, it is because billions of dollars are expended every year to convince them that they are second-class citizens!

In truth, however, they are the most over-privileged and over-pampered group of individuals on the planet.

But, by convincing them otherwise, the feminists and their lackey boys in government can use the attitudes that they, themselves, have generated to provide even further funding for promoting the very same view!

In other words, what we see here is a never-ending upward cycle of victimhood being purposely generated in order to keep the cycle going.

Billions of dollars -> "You are a poor deprived victim."

-> "I am a poor deprived victim. I need help."

Billions of dollars -> "Here is the help because you are a poor deprived victim."

-> "I am a poor deprived victim. I need more help."

And who, exactly, gets all these billions of dollars?

Yes. You've guessed it; the people providing the "help".

NOT the 'victims'.

Millions of people have seen the video of the accuser doing a pole dance at a strip club at the same time she and the police were claiming she was too injured even to sit upright. The second stripper at the infamous lacrosse party now claims that the accuser told her to hit her in order to inflict bruises in hopes of being able to frame the players on criminal assault and rape charges.
