I started reading this this morning but realized I hadn't finished throwing up over the Eric Garner story, and couldn't finish it. I'll try later after a few klonopin have kicked in, and I hopefully don't have a stroke from outrage.
"All that "I used to be cruel to my woman, I beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loved" was me. I used to be cruel to my woman, and physically -- any woman. I was a hitter. I couldn't express myself and I hit. I fought men and I hit women. That is why I am always on about peace, you see. It is the most violent people who go for love and peace. Everything's the opposite. But I sincerely believe in love and peace. I am not violent man who has learned not to be violent and regrets his violence. I will have to be a lot older before I can face in public how I treated women as a youngster."
A person who embraced, admitted, and created art documenting the flawed human condition. I've seen worse. Yoko "opened his eyes" to his bullshit. LSD helped.
I always thought "Run for your Life" was the best example of the Beatles unabashed violent sexism - which was common for the music of the time.
