So we saw today the real person inside [View all]

Crumb the 1st peek out and nearly lose control. The way he jabbed his finger and leaned forward as he name called the female reporter on the plane was him almost totally losing it. Now you see a glimpse into what it must be like in private when he goes into his reported tantrums and tirades of throwing things. Sadly I've been around people like this before who were a controlled "act" when in public but the minute the door was closed and they were in private an animal that was raging inside came out.

So we get a glimpse of what he was like with Ms. Carroll and we see what he would have been like towards these young girls if they refused him. It's more than just intimidation or typical bullying. It is an expression and release of rage. Yes I've known people who flew into a rage if they didn't get their way etc. over even simple things. Scary as hell. Victims of domestic violence are sadly all too familiar with this sort of thing. These kinds of men often raise children to be "copies" of themselves to a degree because Daddy gives them approval and validation when they act similarly towards siblings and others.

These monsters are usually in control of the "act" when they are in public but under tons of stress they can have an outburst like we saw today and if the stress is bad enough they can snap entirely. I have little doubt that if he had been alone with that reporter it would have gone even more overboard than just the brief moment he had with her. I believe it would have gone into very close range nose to nose screaming at her for a long time.

That's the real person coming out. The rest is an act.
