Thread Name: BS: 'Some rape victims should take blame'- ??
Subject: RE: BS: 'Some rape victims should take blame'- ??
From Dave:
"...and this has what to do with blaming some victims for rape? "

That NHS film, on the previous page, in my previous message has ALL to do with doctors and nurses trying to PREVENT terrible situations from happening in the first place, Dave. THAT is why they would have spent the money on making that film. The fact that it's content was deemed to explicit for Youtube, shows you how grave the situation has become.


"I know you like to blame the 'behavior of young people today' for all our ills. I still blame Bolivian unicyclists. I don't think either should be blamed for rape though..."


No, I blame OUR behaviour for many of the ills of young people today, actually.

By preaching this notion of total irresponsibility we have contributed to the situations which are happening all around us, and those situations are often blowing young people's lives apart.

By refusing to be judgemental we now almost condone anything that's going, because so many of us have let ourselves be brainwashed into the new Freedom of Expression which must not be criticised in ANY way at all.

Of course, if you look at this idea cynically, you can see what a great idea 'non-judgemental' is, because it gives those with ulterior motives the freedom to do whatever they want...

Your go, smartass. ;0)
