Some people will conflate real rape accusations with 'political correctness gone wrong' because the lines have been blurred so much now by this extreme version of feminism.
Feminism was a great and much needed movement but it has turned into a nonsensical man hating monster.Some real common sense needs to be injected into the whole movement so real rapes can be dealt with efficiently and properly and people will take them more seriously.
100% right ...33% of police time is investigating sex allegations , mostly historical. some of the accusations are he touched my bottom in a lift 30 odd years ago. ridiculous nonsense. this takes away time and money from real victims and real cass such as this one. false accusers should rot in prison along with the real rapists out there

mmm I do agree with that, unfortunately in a lot of cases it's extremely difficult to prove either way, mostly it's one persons word against the other

the problem is that rape is a catch-all word that spans this case and forced abduction rape at point to death with a knife over many hours

for example

Rape means being penetrated by a penis against your will. Other charges are add ons.

What are you saying then? Yes she got far too drunk, that doesn't mean the guy didn't commit a violent and predatory crime against her

Tom4784 08-06-2016 01:49 PM
What a ridiculous sentence, the judge should definitely be investigated since six months for rape is completely insane.

No its a lesson to all young girls about the dangers of strong drink

Getting raped is a lesson? :/

Tom4784 08-06-2016 01:56 PM
It's quite simple, if you don't have consent or the person is incapable of giving consent then it's a crime. It's not her fault for having a drink, it's his fault for choosing to take advantage and rape her.

The lesson here is simple, don't rape people.

But a woman has to be extra careful

Then it's a much more difficult case to prove beyond reasonable doubt. That's not what happened here though. Is it.

No its the reality of life

get paralytic outdoors on your own and bad things can and will happen

If anything the supposed grey area of consent under the influence of alcohol should be a warning against anyone trying to take advantage of drunk girls/men, not an excuse for what turned out to be rape to have just been "well I didn't know she didn't want it!"

So the guy wasn't responsible for raping her then, she was responsible for giving him the opportunity? I don't get what you're saying here at all, are you saying he deserved the lighter sentence because she was drunk?

Women have to be more responsible about drinking and putting themselves in harms way. That said, you're not allowed to beat or murder someone when they're drunk so I don't see why it should be okay to rape them.

I get your point.We should all take personal responsibility for our own safety.
However that does'nt diminish the responsibility of the person who committed the crime.They have a responsibility to not commit crimes too.
So really the responsibility lies with both parties realistically.In a perfect world we would be able to get as pissed as we like or let our kids play out unsupervised without worry of devastating things happening.Unfortunately it's not a perfect world.
So in short it is stupid to get so pissed you end up unconscious but that doesn't take away any responsibility from the rapist who should face the full wrath of the law.

I made my (now deleted and infracted) Mccann comment not to troll but to make a comparison

2 situations that needed a perp for them to go very wrong

Both situations that were dangerous

1. leaving small children unattended and out of earshot
2. getting so drunk you pas out outside


Bur both situations that 9999/10000 or more happen all over the world and nowt happens

But introduce a perp and it goes very wrong

Both cases do not excuse the perp or the fact the danger was created

I see a parallel and i think its valid, hence why I made it, and not to troll..
