re: #174 Political Atheist

I hear you. We have to bring it back to behavior.

I just hesitate to unlink actions and results. Illlicit affairs put you and others in jeopardy. If only simply because you don’t know if you will face a violent asshole or a decent man that says “stop fucking my wife”. Increased odds of trouble. Decreased odds of a positive outcome.

Please nobody take this as advocacy to remove consenting adults. My point is not at all about the legal, it’s about the personal decisions we make, right and wrong. Sadly bad behavior abounds so we must live accordingly.

Here’s another article about the case.

[…]

Greg G. Rodriguez, 43, of Sugar Land, Texas, was visiting Lindsey Bengtson at her mother’s home on River Lakes Parkway in Whitefish when her husband, Wayne Bengtson, 41, showed up.

“Mr. Rodriguez was up here on business, apparently, from what we have found out, and had stopped to talk with [Bengtson’s wife] for the evening and have a glass of wine,” Whitefish Police Chief Bill Dial said during a press conference Friday.

According to Dial, Bengtson’s wife said they had argued recently but not seriously, and there had been no indication that he would do anything like what he did Thursday.

Dial said it is also believed that the relationship between Bengtson’s wife and Rodriguez, who had met each other at a trade show, was purely professional, and the reason for the visit was to talk about a business-related project. Lindsey Bengtson works for a local firearms manufacturer.

“Perhaps the husband thought maybe it was more than that,” Dial said.

So would you say, ‘Don’t meet with a business associate at your mother’s house if he’s the opposite sex because your husband might go into a jealous rage and kill him’?
