Republicans: A Profile Of The Classic Abuser.
Edited on Tue Aug-02-11 08:46 PM by SkyIsGrey
FTA:

As a former victim of domestic violence, in another lifetime, I learned a lot about the abusive personality. When it was over, and I was out, I became a domestic violence hotline counselor. The classes I took to train me for this job taught me two things. One, that abusers aren’t psychotic but instead have character disorders. And two, the abusive behavior isn’t uncontrollable; it is a learned social behavior.

Metaphorically, of course.

But she's right - the only thing they recognize is superior force. And it doesn't rehabilitate them, it just stops them as long as you apply it.
