Self Imposed Victimization Analysis

Superior Essays
Hi guys.

I know it has been a while since I have put anything up and I am sorry for that. I was in college, I just graduated and now have more free time on my hands.

There is a topic I have wanted to talk about for a while now. I am still not sure how it will go over but I want to break it down and put it out there regardless.

That topic revolves around this idea of self-imposed victimization.

I feel like there is no accurate way I can describe how this makes me feel, all I know is it is negative. I have no sympathy people who shut themselves up inside a box and intentionally isolate themselves. I have no words of comfort for those who pursue dangerous people and situations, knowing full well the danger they are putting themselves in, and

There is literally so much to say about his and not enough time in the world to talk about it. So, I am going to suffice to say, that this person knows better and has told you they know better but they still pursue this to its bitter conclusion. Then, they expect sympathy for how it turned out for them. No, you will not be getting any sympathy from me. You put yourself in that situation, you said yourself that you knew how it would turn out, and STILL DID IT. They were no surprises or misfortune here. Just stupidity, and attention seeking …show more content…
I don’t make everyone else suffer for my mistakes though. I don’t blame other people for how things turned out or how their participation made me feel. They are 100% my fault, all I ask of the people in my life is to be there. I don’t need you to listen to me bitch and whine. I am perfectly OK with sharing the good moments of my day with you. Be there to be my light in the darkness, I may complain sometimes but that’s part of being human. Don’t allow yourself to be a ‘victim’ because in the end, people will stop trusting you and believing you. At some point, they may even stop wanting to talk to you or be around you. Having someone that negative and self-involved in your life is really

    Ingalls 1 Cody Ingalls Professor Rhodes Introduction to Ethics April 15th, 2017 Case Study The debate surrounding abortion rights presents many ethical dilemmas, and is rarely a black and white issue, which makes it difficult to label all abortions as moral or immoral. Many people who are opposed to abortion are willing to support it in certain situations, such as in the case of rape, incest, or the endangerment of a mother’s life. One of these situations is described in the case study “Conceived in Violence, Born in Hate,” an overview of a rape and assault victim who was forcibly impregnated and decided to carry the child to term. The case raises interesting questions about the morality of abortions in the case of rape, and the autonomy of…

    Aggressiveness is a behavioral trait where a person is unreasonably hostile towards others, often in an attempt to dominate and intimate those around them. The Buss-Petty Aggression Scale breaks up aggression into four categories: physical aggression, verbal aggression, anger, and hostility. While the conceptual definition did not specify different types of aggression, it did highlight hostility and allowed for intimidating or hostile ‘actions’ in a general sense. The conceptual definition further highlighted aggression as feelings and actions that arise due to or in interaction with other people. The Buss-Petty Aggression Scale questions seem to focus on the same interpersonal interactions a great deal.…

    Even the grocery clerk is to blame for the wait when you come during a busy time at the store. Everything is always everyone else 's fault, and they are ruining your life! If you are always looking at other people as if they are at fault, then you have a victim mentality. For example, the wife of a friend of mine would go so far as to blame her husband when she dropped and broke a cup.…

    Creator Victim Analysis

    • 85 Words
    • 1 Pages

    A way you can work on becoming more like a creator is by not letting your ego get built up. In a victim, your inner defender may cause problems, by hiding behind lies as a defense. For example, if you tell yourself that the work is easy and that you will do it later, you are really lying to yourself to avoid struggles. If you are procrastinating, you are doing this because it is most likely a struggle for you. Victims are also inner…

    Is a person’s internal struggle an excuse to treat others poorly? Many people would say that no, it is no excuse, and one should get over their problems and be kind to everyone. However, that isn’t so easy for some people. Many people can’t get over their bigotry towards certain groups of people for this reason: they have their own problems and their reasons for being hateful towards others are completely justified in their mind. It is up to that person, as an individual, to overcome their aggressive and predatory nature to become a much happier person and accept themselves and everyone else for who they are.…

    Your post most definitely persuaded me. I really like the point you made about victims being heard and how their voice is important. Victims want to be heard and get the justice they deserve. By having victims have a voice in plea negotiations, this allows them to state how they feel and what should be done. However that can get out of hand real quickly with the victim wanting revenge, this could make the sentencing unfair to the offender.…

    Stigma Of Being Kid

    For as long as I can remember, I have been known as “that kid”. One who would never cry no matter how dire the circumstances were, and who was always tougher than everyone else. This stigma has led to me receiving the worse end of situations over and over again, simply seeing that I handle it better than everyone else. Unfortunately, this rationale has continued ever since, and I have faced numerous adversities because of it. Yet, what these people do not understand is that just because I do not externalize everything, does not mean I am invulnerable; it does not mean I do not hurt.…

    The use of victim impact statements as aggravating evidence during the penalty phase of a capital murder trial is in direct conflict with the Eighth Amendment and the Court’s prior precedent. The introduction of this testimony from family members, who are generally not witnesses to the crime, endangers the petitioner’s right to fairly imposed sentencing hearing by risking arbitrary and capricious actions from the jury. In the present case, victim impact statements provide three types of information to the jury. “First,” as Justice Powell explained, “it described the personal characteristics of the victims and the emotional impact of the crimes on the family.” “Secondly,” he continues, “it set forth the family members' opinions and characterizations…

    You can have two different types of mindsets in this world, you can have a creator or victim mindset. A creators mindset is where you find solutions to your problems, they have what you call personal responsibility. Victim mindset people are the ones who make excuses for themselves to make it feel like they are not at fault.

    This week’s assignment regarding the study of victimology has me torn on which area that I would like to discuss, as the entire subject intrigues me. I was graced with a gift of being able to see situations from varying point of views, however, this week I had to do a self-check. I realized that I am human and my own biases can and will affect the way that I view a situation. Although I knew that there was violence among prisoners who are incarcerated, I never viewed them as victims, until now.…

    Based on the evidence of the cases, it is clear that White perpetrators are more likely to be acquitted or receive lenient sentence, as seen in the Kennedy case and St. John’s case, and minority perpetrators will receive more criticism and face harsher sentences, as seen by the Big Dan’s case and Central Park Jogger case. The hysteria against ethnic groups was rampant in the cases involving minority perpetrators, and the exiguous attention when minority victims are involved shows that White patriarchal media seeks to either blame minorities, or hide the fact that White against minority crime took place. This supports notion that the press still prefers crimes against White victims while ignoring those against Blacks, and although it focuses…

    The Law of Evaluation communicates the importance of understanding the difference between hurting someone and harming someone. Cloud and Townsend state, “You need to evaluate the effects of setting boundaries and be responsible to the other person, but that does not mean you should avoid setting boundaries.” When setting boundaries, it is likely that some loved ones will be hurt by our decision to set certain boundaries. It is our responsibility to to think through the other person’s feelings and confront them with love when setting our own boundaries. When I was younger, I had an issue with avoiding hurting other’s feelings at all costs.…

    Victim Precipitation Theory Jacob N Zucker Grantham University CJ102 Victim Precipitation Theory is the view that victims may initiate, either actively or passively, the confrontation that leads to their victimization (Siegel, 2014, p. 67). Active precipitation occurs when victims act provocatively, use threats or fighting words, or even attack first, resulting in their victimization (Siegel, 2014, p. 67). Passive precipitation is personal or social characteristics of victims that make them attractive to criminals; such victims may unknowingly either threaten or encourage their attackers (Siegel, 2014, p. 68). A case study and example of passive precipitation is the case of the murder of Bud and June Runion in January…

    Hypothesis: If domestic violence is continually seen as non-violent to law enforcement, then abusers will continually get away with the incorrect form of punishment. I support my hypothesis to an extent at this point, but I feel as though I should have rephrased it differently. After I did more research over domestic violence and over the laws regarding domestic violence, I am beginning to see that there are holes in my hypothesis. I do believe that abusers will continually get away with the incorrect form of punishment, but there are not exactly guidelines for what the punishment should be for the abusers. I realize that this is how all laws are, but domestic violence branches off into many different categories.…
