"We’ve made a national sport out of blaming women for the mistakes of the men in their lives.

Hansal in his original tweet had written, "This silence is a pattern. In good times everybody parties together. In bad times there is deafening silence. There is isolation. No matter what the ultimate truth the damage is already done."
