In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

Out of the Mouths of Judges 

"America's idea of what is torture is not the same as ours and does not appear to coincide with that of most civilised nations." So says a British judge, talking about the appalling treatment of prisoners (who have not been tried or convicted of anything) at Guantanamo Bay. The UN has called for the United States to close down Gitmo and try or release the prisoners. The Bushie said no. He added, "And if you don't like that, I'll get the dick to shoot you in the face."
