how the hell was she supposed to know she was going to get raped?

  @CrowWatchingJustice party member from Utah  disagreed…3yrs3Y

You are a civil terrorist.

You’re a threat to the well being of victims.

Well that's a little extreme, calling people terrorists because they don't share the same opinions as you.

 @93RV8TZ from Maryland  disagreed…3yrs3Y

Sounds about republican

 @B2NH276 from West Virginia  commented…2mos2MO

Not just that this person is disgusting and childish! I guarantee their opinion would change if it was their child who was in this kind of situation or if they were the one who was the victim people like this blame the victim until they are the victim.

 @9RHK5N6Alliance from New York  commented…8mos8MO

WE HAVE A RAPIST OVER HERE!

 @9R4BRTJWomen’s Equality from Minnesota  commented…8mos8MO

And what if it wasn't a man?

 @9WHZFSW from Illinois  commented…5mos5MO

It should still be treated as statuatory rape.

 @TheHillbillyLordRepublican from Maryland  commented…2mos2MO

What?!? Marriage should only be between a man and woman, so it must be a man.

 @9Y9KR8K from Arkansas  commented…5mos5MO

What if a woman married a man not knowing he had a dark side, and he forced himself onto her after their marriage? Is it then the woman's fault? No, it should be harshly punished because rape is rape no matter the circumstances

 @9W76LXK from Missouri  commented…5mos5MO

What an absolutely disgusting person you are.

 @9NP9XJM from Texas  commented…10mos10MO

people like you are the type of person to get mad when women assume an abuser is male, but still say stuff like this 😭

 @9MKS2G6 from Florida  commented…10mos10MO

No, it's not her fault. Here are some scenarios and reasons as to why:

1. Arranged marriages without the person's choice are still at large, so the person in this situation has no say as they have been psychologically manipulated

2. The man in this situation may have done that in the past, but has been psychologically manipulative and made her believe that it was her fault

3. The man may have been waiting until marriage to do that

4. Lets say hypothetically, you were a woman. How would you feel if one day, your partner raped you and got you pregnant to either satisfy his urges or to trap you in an abusive marriage?

Regardless of the reason/scenario, it's still the perpetrators fault, and not the fault of the victim. Rape is rape, no matter the gender or relation to the victim.

Elizabeth Warren Walks Back Murder Comments

Congressional Democrats broadly denounced the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Friday morning, after Republicans started accusing Sen. Elizabeth Warren of excusing violence.“No one's condoning this,” said Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.). “Violence never is the right answer for anything. And it was a horrible murder, a tragic loss for his family.” Warren this week condemned the shooting, but added that people “can be pushed only so far.”"We'll say it over and over," Warren said on MSNBC’S “The ReidOut.” " Violence is never the answer. This guy [Luigi Mangione] gets a trial who's allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands."In a statement to POLITICO, Warren said, “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.” Top Republicans denounced Warren's comments and the walked-back rhetoric, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) calling it “inappropriate and dangerous.”Some House Democrats asked about the incident on Thursday pivoted the conversation to discuss policy options on health care or gun safety.“I don't really know that this is really a space that Congress normally weighs in on,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). “But at the end of the day, I think it’s an opportunity, because now people are talking about health care and to talk about the fact that this industry has honestly not been as helpful as it could be.”“Violence is never the answer,” said Rep. Troy Carter (D-La.). “We know that there are people suffering, there’s great challenges in healthcare. There's great challenges, and people have, in fact, been wronged, but a process of governance is the way to address that, not violence.”And Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) who denounced the murder, said the killer should be prosecuted and that “I do know that allegedly a ghost gun was used, and we should also ban ghost guns. There's no reason for them beyond the streets.”
