“And now insane men adrift in a world without order formed a line at the door. They rendered unto her every evil act brought into this world by God. They fell upon her with brutality that none of them at any other time would have thought possible. There was once no scenario that would lead them to behave this way. At any other time in their life there were no words or arguments that could convince them to treat a woman with such wanton disregard.
