How can I have a position on her stabbing someone in Als? She was drunk. He didn't deserve it. I think she should have done more jail time. 
No excuse. 
What's my position. My position is that my friend is suffering from sexual child abuse. My friend involved herself in a job I didn't agree with, but I won't stop being her friend because of it. My friend has made poor choices in her life, but when you look at all the men who took advantage of her sexually as a child, she's lucky to be alive. I think she needs several years in therapy. But above all, I'm 100% supportive of her moving forward, overcoming the bigotry of others, becoming successful in any legal career, and an engaging and responsible parent.
That's my position.
