In Wake Of Texas Gang Rape, Florida Lawmaker Proposes Blame the Rape Victim for her Clothes

D.C, out of concern for your daughter, I will offer some words of extreme caution. It is not "SICKOS" from whom you should (or can reasonably expect to) protect your daughter, but largely blameless boys who are taught by our misogynistic culture that women are merely sex toys for men and baby making machines for the rich to use for ever-cheaper labor. Not many "sickos" target girls who are extroverted and are attempting to draw attention to themselves. "Sickos" are more statistically likely to target girls who are wallflowers, introverts, and less likely to struggle.

By all means, monitor her clothing, but also be sure to teach her to know the difference between a boy who flatters her and changes his demeanor from "macho man" to "sweet lover boy" to lure her into sex and a boy who shows sincere interest in her as a person long before "making a move" on her. Teach her that her body is HER body and not a product to be put on display. Teach her that any boy who would take notice of her ONLY when she dressed "for his pleasure" will not be willing, or even capable of showing her genuine love and affection, but is one of the brainwashed masses of boys who watches the NFL as if it were significant, bullies the "nerdy" boys and effeminates, and makes fun of "fatties" and girls he finds unattractive. These boys are raised by this culture to HATE women as people, but have uncontrollable lust for their bodies.

In the 21st century, largely from criminologists in Europe, where the idea of "rehabilitation" is not considered too "bleeding heart liberal" and the term "correctional institution" is more than lip service to keep attention away from the abuse and neglect of our increasingly privatized prison industry,we now KNOW definitively that rape is not a crime born out of sexual desire primarily. Rapists in therapy for their pathology report that it mattered very little whether they found their victim sexually attractive, nor were they outwardly perverse and sex-deprived loners. Indeed, most had wives and girlfriends with whom they had outwardly "normal" sexual relationships. Rapists' chief motivating impulse and selection processes center around finding a person whom they can easily control, express their dominance over, and from whom they will receive less resistance and less threat of being reported.

As I state in another post on this thread. The greatest factor that COULD lead to a greater number of rapes perpetrated against sexually attractive victims is the prevalence among ignorant believers in MYTH who mistake the rapists' urge as chiefly sexual. This is because, though our Dirty Harry culture loves to find excuses to punish and execute people for their unchecked, sadistic, animal bloodlust, and will jump at the chance to cry out for vengeance against a man who rapes a girl in pigtails and a Hello Kitty jumpsuit, rapists know know this same sick misogynist culture considers provocative dress, such as the Bratz clothing line...

not only acceptable as a money-making tool for corporate vampires like MGA Entertainment, but also as a convenient labeling instrument for hypersexualized boys to use as a means of identifying which girls they can satisfy their lust upon, while saving the Hello Kitty girl for a respectable marriage later after the Bratz girl gets her back-alley abortions made necessary by the GOP's war on women. The rapists know that a culture that blames women and girls for their own rape because of the clothes they wear will be less likely to convict or harshly punish them for raping such a person.

SO...

A natural result of girls dressing like whores: Unwanted pregnancy, STDs, low-self esteem (chicken/egg?), and a bad reputation, especially among women who believe they are people, not sex objects for men. The same natural results of living the life of a whore.

A man-made result of such attire: Blame for own rape, higher likelihood of becoming viable target for rape because of ignorant myths and misplaced cultural bias, lighter sentences for their attackers because more juries will think she was "asking for it", that this was not a "legitimate rape".

Protecting your daughter on the INSIDE by creating an environment that supports her freedom, celebrates her personhood and human dignity, and helps her discern the misogynist frat boy and date-raping jock from the sincere husband-worthy-material she'll find WITHOUT dressing like Miley Cyrus is a better strategy for keeping her safe and happy.

Idiot, you are no man at all, let alone a super one.
Your twisted and pathetic logic supports the following statement:

"Following the attacks of 9/11, it should be clear how unwise it is to enter into any tall building, board a passenger aircraft, or work at the Pentagon."

The girl LIVED IN THE AREA in question. She wasn't merely a victim of this rape. She and everyone living there are victims of patriarchal fascists like YOU who don't think before they hammer out their nonsense to support their right to rape little girls. Chronic poverty and the apathy toward social decay that create such zones as "the Quarters" are the fault of an economic and political system that allows the rich to benefit off of the work of the poor, yet taxes them less and less and less to provide for the education and social support needed to improve such neighborhoods.

The thought of YOU telling others "don't avoid it, don't be clever about it" is almost worth a good laugh, but it's really a reason to cry. Paul Ryan agrees with your attitude and would force the girl to carry her baby to term if a pregnancy resulted from this gang rape. You smug, arrogant Nazis would most likely keep a copy of the cell phone recording for your personal pleasure after you hang up your klan robes at night.

If you actually do have a daughter, tell her she had better not look any boys in the eye, or let her navel be seen, or speak one word to a man outside of her immediate family, lest she be taken by you to the center of town and stoned to death. If you teach her anything else, after your condescending rant, you are a hypocrite.

Please strain what little grey matter you have to understand this:

If the girl were dressed like a Times square hooker, flashing her ass and leering at the men and boys in that neighborhood with a "come hither" look, it would STILL be a rape. It would STILL be wrong. It would STILL be just as unacceptable.as if she had been kidnapped from her suburban bedroom like Polly Klaus before being GANG RAPED BY MORE THAN A DOZEN MEN AND BOYS UNDER THREAT OF VIOLENCE!!!

It is OBVIOUS that attacks like this happen more often in low income areas where lack of work, lack of decent educational opportunities. and lack of adequate youth recreation programs create a milieu where unsupervised younger children mix with idle teens and even 20-somethings with time to kill and thrills to seek. It is OBVIOUS that abandoned trailers, like the abandoned tracts of suburban homes across America foreclosed upon by the BANKS, are a result of economic oppression and a system that rewards the already unfairly rewarded and punishes the already unfairly punished. To even MENTION the attire worn or the physical characteristics of or the company kept by an ELEVEN YEAR OLD GIRL as a fair context for your moralizing and patrician "tisk tisking" is patently absurd and cruel. This is not a cautionary tale worth telling. As your diatribe NEARLY suggests, it is appropriate for us to take action, as a nation, to eliminate the socio-economic imbalance that causes the creation of these "legitimate rape zones" that you feel are places where anyone who enters should be mocked and made the subject of a cautionary tale, rather than shown as an example of how low our nation has sunk.

Certainly, the environment one is raised in, though largely created by a lack of any social responsibility on the part of the wealthy, is no excuse whatsoever for the actions of these depraved men and boys. But such malevolence is not limited to the ghetto. It thrives most powerfully at the heart of a privileged class that quotes the bible, but only those parts that support their world view, and quotes the "founding fathers", but only those words, out of context, that support their worldview, and vainly proclaims themselves the rightful inheritors of the American legacy. White collar crime, which amounts to more loss each year, dollar for dollar, than ALL street crime in any preceding DECADE, goes largely unprosecuted, unpunished and unreported. Wealthy white men travel the world to low-income areas where they buy little girls (like the victim of the crime we are talking about) for a week at a time, having their way with them, then flying back from their "business trip" to sing in their church choir. The fact that soon they will not need to board a plane to find these "exotic pleasure spots" will go completely unnoticed by the likes of "Supermen" like you. It will just be yet another place you tell your daughter to avoid and pretend you have done your duty. This is the scenario the rich want to preserve. They want to live lavishly and safely in their neighborhoods, but always have a place to "sew their wild oats" among the commoners, just down the highway. This is why economic oppression IS economic oppression, and not a matter of mere chance and superior breeding. This is our system as the wealthy intend it.

Perhaps your solution would merely be to post signs near the area, like those in state parks, warning of the presence of wild animals in the area. Forget about what causes such environments to exist. Forget the reasons why an 11yo girl might not have adequate recreational or educational opportunities that would prevent her from hanging out with such miscreants. Stand up on your high horse and judge HER for not having the good sense to stay out of trouble....when TROUBLE is OBVIOUSLY in the atmosphere where she LIVES.

Eat kryptonite, UberMenche. the Legion of Doom is a better friend than you.
