Reader Feedback on "Crying In Restaurants With Sarah Hepola"
Ouch, these comments are cruel! Please tell me why somebody who mugged the writer deserves to be the subject of her dispassionate treatise on class and race? Under the circumstances, I think the writer has more right to feel this was a fair sentence as you do to think it's excessive. If someone mugged my wife, I'd want him locked up AND kicked in the balls as well, but that's just me. Sarah, as someone who is 12 years into a sweet, loving, and happy marriage with someone I met and fell in love with online, may your days be filled with happiness and all the best kinds of tears. Thanks for sharing your story.

I agree with you, RAZA. This column has always felt self indulgent to me, but this last one goes too far. He gets 15 years, she gets cuddles and sympathy?! and this is somehow supposed to prove that something great can come out of something terrible?! I'm just amazed at the level of self indulgence here.

Is anyone else disturbed by the "weepy-white-woman-protected-by-John-Law-from-the-scary-Black-guy" narrative going on in this story? He got FIFTEEN YEARS for mugging her in post-Katrina New Orleans, but sometimes bad things like that can lead to good stuff like cuddling in bed and being consoled about your cat possibly dying at some point in the future. I'm not trying to say that she doesn't deserve love and joy... but damn. I propose another column entitled "Crying in Restaurants about Uncritical Reflections on Race and Class."

I would have thought with the salon gig this would have been finally over? Oh well. It is sub headlined the end.

Sarah, I've been a long time reader (originally of your blog, then of your writings on The Morning News, and at Hooksexup). I just wanted to say that I'm glad you've found what sounds to be a great guy. I hope it works out, and I trust that it will. --David

Sarah - You made me cry in a not bad kind of way. Here's to caring about and loving enough to cry about it. Happy 2008 to you.
