I think that people have responded with support for Gabbi because they know her, trust her and believe her when she says that there is more to the story and that it wasn't meant as a threat nor was it ever intended that Rod read the remark. That is the only explanation that is consistent with her character.Thank you. It's kind of bizarre. When a comment is posed like that, I mentioned to someone else, it feels like I'm a defendent in court who was overheard by a neighbor once saying
"I could strangle my husband!" and suddenly has it tossed back at her completely out of context, and as in court just a "yes or no" It's not permitted by Babble, nor do I really want to provide the elements that preceded that comment, or more importantly to me, what has happened since, which makes me fairly certain that fear was never the issue here.
