[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

In 1965, a 17-year-old girl in Sicily was kidnapped, assaulted, and held captive for over a week.

Then her attacker offered her a deal:

Marry him, and everything would be “forgiven.”

At the time, Italian law allowed rapists to avoid punishment if they married their victims.

It was called “reparatory marriage.”

The logic was horrifying:

A woman’s “honor” mattered more than her consent.

If she married the man who violated her, her reputation could supposedly be restored — and the rapist could walk free.

Most women had no real choice.

Families pressured them.
Communities expected obedience.
The law itself encouraged silence.

But Franca Viola said no.

At 17 years old, traumatized and publicly shamed, she refused to marry the man who assaulted her.

That single word changed Italy forever.

Her decision sparked outrage in her town.

Neighbors turned against her family.
Their vineyards and olive groves were burned in retaliation.

But Franca’s father stood beside her and supported her decision to press charges.

In 1966, Franca testified publicly against her attacker in court.

At a time when most victims were expected to stay silent forever, she spoke openly in front of the entire country.

Italy watched in shock.

Her attacker, Filippo Melodia, was convicted and sentenced to prison.

For the first time in Italian history, a woman had publicly rejected “reparatory marriage” and won.

The case became international news.

But the law itself still remained.

For another 15 years, rapists in Italy could technically still escape punishment by marrying their victims.

Then finally, in 1981, Italy abolished the law completely.

And many activists pointed to Franca Viola as the moment the country first began confronting the cruelty of that system.

Years later, Franca married a childhood friend who had stood beside her through everything.

Not because she needed her “honor restored.”

But because she deserved love, dignity, and a life defined by her own choices.

That’s why her story still matters.

Franca Viola wasn’t just resisting one man.

She was resisting an entire culture that treated women’s suffering as something to hide rather than something to fight.

At 17 years old, she stood against her attacker, her community, and even the law itself.

And eventually, the law changed.

Sometimes history moves because powerful people decide to act.

And sometimes history moves because one terrified teenager quietly refuses to surrender.

RIP Marjane Satrapi, the great cartoonist and film director, best known for PERSEPOLIS. She was only 56. A great talent. She will be missed.

I enjoy the proper framing of a "colonial era law". People don't realize just how much homophobia has been forced on much of the world. Queer liberation is intertwined with battling colonialism and imperialism.

In 2016, 5,712 Native women and girls were reported missing in a single year. Only 116 of those cases were entered into federal databases. Behind every number that was never counted is a name that deserves to be spoken.

Nestlé es de las multinacionales más criminales de todo el planeta, aún más cuando estaba bajo la dirección del sociópata de Peter Brabeck.

Niños de 5 años son esclavizados en los campos de cacao de Ghana, donde multinacionales como Nestlé consiguen la materia prima a precio de saldo para conseguir máximos beneficios con su chocolate.

Nestlé no sólo esclaviza a niños en plantaciones de cacao y café, también arrasa con los manantiales de agua y bosques enteros para plantaciones ilegales, promueve fórmulas dañinas para bebés, contamina masivamente con plásticos...

Este es el interior crudo del capitalismo, un sistema donde la avaricia es tal, que con su infinito gasto de recursos acabará devorando la naturaleza y exterminando a la humanidad, destruirá sus 2 fuentes de riqueza.

The United States has the largest prison population on earth.

Not per capita.

Total.

More people in cages than China.

More than Russia.

More than every "authoritarian" state it condemns in its annual human rights reports.

1.8 million people.

Disproportionately Black.

Disproportionately poor.

Disproportionately from the zip codes with the worst schools, the fewest jobs, the most abandoned infrastructure.

This is presented as a "criminal justice system."

It functions as a labor system.

Prison labor, paid between 13 cents and $1.15 an hour in most states, produces goods for McDonald's, Walmart, Victoria's Secret, Whole Foods, and the United States military.

The 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery, contains an exception clause:

"Except as punishment for crime."

That exception has never been closed.

It has been expanded.

The plantation did not disappear.

It received a different name and a legal foundation.

Our daughter, Rachel Corrie, was killed in 2003 in Gaza, while trying to protect a Palestinian home facing illegal destruction by the Israeli military. She was 23 years old. The massive, armored Caterpillar D-9 bulldozer that crushed her was operated by two Israeli soldiers and manufactured in the United States. It was the same type of militarized bulldozer that US presidents from George W. Bush through to Donald Trump have delivered to Israel.
Today, as the destruction of Palestinian homes has only become more commonplace, not to mention the horror of Israel’s genocide, Senator Bernie Sanders will force a vote in the Senate to try to end this cycle of death by banning the transfer of D-9 bulldozers to Israel. We hope he will not take this stand alone.
No policy can bring back those taken from us by these actions—children and other loved ones. But the Senate now has an opportunity to honor the memories of our daughter, other Americans, and thousands of Palestinian civilians killed, and to show that their deaths, and all the destruction, will no longer be condoned and funded. We hope those elected to represent us, the American people, understand the message that voting to block these D-9 bulldozers will send. This will not be a symbolic gesture, but a concrete step toward the protection of human life.

[Read Raising Expectations (and Raising Hell) @JPHilllllll]

Warehouses burnt down, a Molotov thrown at Sam Altman’s house, a politicians home shot at because they supported a data center — a spree of attacks on the ruling class appears to have begun.

Every attacker will now be deemed a terrorist by our government and by the entire ruling class. That’s inevitable.

But what the ruling class desperately doesn’t want you to know is that they made this moment inevitable.

Their greed has made so many people so destitute and desperate that people across America resorting to lashing out was bound to happen.

What the rich and powerful don’t want is for you to look at the underlying causes of these acts.
