People associate the Super Bowl with domestic violence, but the domestic violence I experienced once happened in a tent while we were all at one of the many festivals Portlanders are attending this weekend. Besides us, and some other average twnety, thirty, and forty somethings, there were a lot of artists, musicians, costume wearers, other creative types and some self-proclaimed hippies there. It's sucks to realize that everything at that "magical" event isn't all covered in glitter. People want to think the person in the fuzzy sweater would not be capable of acting like the football star caught on video dragging his girlfriend out of an elevator. However, reality isn't always magical and sometimes people do terrible things. It would be really cool if you did somebody there a solid and kept an eye or an ear out in case your friend pins someone else down this year in a tent for a while and temporarily refuses to let them out.
