#Cyntoia Brown

[lovrboyx]

thinking about the absolutely insane amount of public support and media coverage Gypsy Rose has gotten since her release and how women of color like Cyntoia Brown, who was released back in 2019 after murdering the 43 yr old man who drove her back to his house when she was 16 to have sex with her, are not given anywhere NEAR as much sympathy

and before anyone twists my words, this is NOT a comparison of crimes or about who had it worse, this is fully about the condemning of women of color and how they are not afforded the same sympathy and protections that white women have in the American prison system AND within the public eye

Why is there no "kill all rapists" community online? If I try to find people idolizing people who killed their rapists (Cyntoia brown is my favorite person ever please look her up) I can't but you can find hours of content of people idolizing the columbine shooters and Ted bundy. Why? One killed a rapist *all of them deserve to die and if you don't agree gtfo* and the others killed because they hated minorities. Why are the "I hate women so I'm gonna kill 12 people" ones more idolized than the self defense ones? Shut up!

(Tagging this as tcc because I AM idolizing a killer, that being cyntoia brown, even though her actions were objectively completely justified. I don't condone wanting to fuck Dylan klebold just fyi)

Cyntoia Brown was sentenced in 2006 when she was 16 and released in 2019.

people killing their abusers and getting unfair sentences is not a cut and dry misogyny issue imo. men who kill their abusers get way harsher sentences. cyntoia brown and catina curly got aquitted, gypsy rose got 10 years (tho that ones a little more complicated) while erik and lyle menendez got life without parole and are STILL to the wider public considered entitled teenagers who killed their parents because they disinherited them dispite the mountain of evidence backing up their side of the story. its a well documented fact that women get lighter sentences than men and this extends to this situation.

#8toAbolition

At their roots, policing and prisons are systems designed to uphold oppression. One thousand people are killed by police every year, and Black people are murdered at three times the rate of white people. Up to fifty percent of people murdered by the police have disabilities. Up to 40% of police officers have perpetrated intimate partner violence, and sexual violence is the second most common form of police brutality, primarily targeting Black women and especially those who are sex workers and drug users. Many of these incidents of police violence are undocumented by studies and only uplifted through grassroots movements. Prisons, police, and prosecutors work closely together to sustain white supremacist, capitalist, ableist, and cisheteropatriarchal systems of extraction and death.

Black people who are women, trans, gender non-conforming, sex working, and queer are often criminalized for actions they take to survive gendered violence, as we have seen in the cases of Tracy McCarter, Alisha Walker, GiGi Thomas, Marissa Alexander, Bresha Meadows, Cyntoia Brown, and many others. We reject the notion of a “perfect survivor”; we do not believe anyone deserves to be caged, nor do we prescribe to the state’s notions of “innocence” and culpability. We recognize that the system of policing is intertwined with the prison and military industrial complex, both here and abroad. In abolishing policing, we seek to abolish imperialist forms of police, such as militaries responsible for generations of violence against Black and brown people worldwide.

We believe in a world where there are zero police murders because there are zero police

See the 8 Steps to Abolition in detail.

These are demands, not requests.

Listen to Black and brown folk. Listen to queer folk. Fight back against the police state. Fight back against Christian nationalism. Fight back against white supremacy.

“What’s this Patriarchical privilege so I can take advantage of it?” asks Johnny Redpill

Women get sentenced three times longer than men for the same crime?

Critical Misogynistic Theory

Considering also that the males tend to kill as ‘triggered righteous outrage to being disrespected, covering up a rape, or to kill the pregnant mother of their child.

Whereas wome are likely to kill in self defense a man engaged in trying to ‘beat sense into them or their child’ or a man deliberately engaged in the above.

Cyntoia Brown, featured [ above is a photo of graffiti street art found anno 2023 in Los Angeles CA that depicts specifically: a mural (by artist @muckrock) featuring multiple Monarch butterflies as well as a portrait of a woman convicted of murder and robbery at 16 years of age for allegedly killing the man who had enslaved and sex trafficked her, as well as these decipherable alphanumerics - Cyntoia Brown ][ americanifesto - 場黑麥 - jpr - urbanartopia - whorphan ]

I wish people understand that Aileen Wuornos lied about why she killed those men. She claimed that all 7 men were rapists and she was killing them in self-defense but that's not 100% the truth. The first man Richard Mallory was a rapist so that she was telling the truth about this one but the rest were just innocent men.

If we want to take down the myth that all women lied than why do feminists idolise women like Aileen Wuornos. Why not Cyntoia Brown instead.

Com 16 anos, Cyntoia Brown é condenada à prisão perpétua. Mas dúvidas sobre seu passado, sua fisiologia e até a própria lei podem mudar seu veredito.

Mfs will support the death penalty for drugs and stealing but then say Cyntoia Brown went too far

[cantate-domino]

I don��t actually have an opinion yet about if rape is any worse morally than murder, but I do have qualms with the reasoning a lot of people give when discussing the idea.

You cannot murder in self defence, as murder has to be unjustified killing of another person.

Now, you can have a motive behind murdering someone that people deem reasonable, like retroactively killing the abuser of your children when they are not in any direct harm anymore. There’s an argument, since that would still be murder, to be made about how there is a reason to murder sometimes. However, a woman killing her husband because she can’t escape his abuse otherwise isn’t murder, that’s killing someone with reason. Killing the enemy on the battlefield of a just war isn’t murder, neither is killing someone who believably threatens violence (ie stalking someone, threatening with a weapon) or killing someone who’s harmed you if they will do it again, which is why it’s not murder when women and children who are prostituted kill their pimps, regardless of what courts may rule. Homicide is not always murder: justifiable homicide, manslaughter, killing in war, and euthanasia are not murder. If your argument about how murder isn’t always bad brings up (for example) Cyntoia Brown, who did not murder anyone, instead of (for example) Aileen Wuornos, who did, your platform is incorrect. You’re defending self defence, not arguing that murder can be moral.

SURVIVED: Chrystul Kizer and Cyntoia Brown

SURVIVED: Chrystul Kizer and Cyntoia Brown

When 17-year-old Chrystul Kizer is arrested for first-degree murder in Milwaukee, the investigation uncovers a connection between her and her victim that can’t be ignored. And it mirrors an eerily similar story — that of Cyntoia Brown — that played out over a 15-year span in Tennessee.

H.C Andersen, who wrote The Emperor’s New Clothes re-wrote some of the Old European tales as metaphors for the reality of his times; which was at the same time as Esther, whose story was told by the Danish National Museum. Theirs was the time of the White (documented/legalized/organized) Slavetrade, which was inherited from the time when Asian noble families would “adopt/marry away” underaged children as low as 4 years old to serve as domestic servants. The “naked” emperor is an image of the absence of legal protection/safety. Esther’s story is similar to a prequel to Dagmar Overbye, who was prosecuted for “nanny-ing without a license”, though she was paid by other women of her time to do so. She’s also said to taken the lives of several children, which also refers to her contemporaries, who would legally, and informally, persecute servants for abortions: sometimes going as far as hanging women for having abortions connected to the employer’s mentality of seeing their bodies as personal property. Cyntoia Brown, for the sake of mentioning a modern example of the French Papin sisters, who killed their employer’s wife, killed the man who trafficked her. “The Handmaiden’s tale” illustrates military methods of rape made to appear “legal”, though those methods explicitly violate Human rights conventions and national legislations. Descriptions of the White Slavetrade in Denmark describe women as organizing the administration of such rape in multiple published works in previous, and modern, times as late as the 1980’s. I’ve posted documentaries as Well that describe the trafficking of both men and women. *On further note I’ve noticed my male neighbours have been Extra active on the non-verbal intimidation front; with the Old man next door harking away (he’s not ill) and people slamming Doors (you Can hear it’s not coincidental or natural.
