May I add that in Spain this post of Kos will come through as remarkably left-wing and pro-women... I guess there is some kind of perception difference..

In my everyday life disregarding violence problems when you are focusing on another issue is quite common.. It seems that in the US left is slighlty different and not paying attention to the issue when it appears even colaterally is considereing extremelly wrong. Am I right?

It is interesting to see the difference in perception.. I would say the same thing but elevated to Nth power happens with racist issues in Spain.

Given my knwoledge around I think Kos will not apologize but he may may sensible and specifically clarify that gender-absed violence was not the point of the post. He of course may act as (almost) every other spaniard ... I dunno.

A pleasure
