Getting into a stranger's car at night leads to horrible things. Always.
Rape is wrong and terrible but she chose to get in. |

Yeah, but I grew up in a very different world. So I'm not even relevent to this convo.
When you're that age, you often think that you are invincible.
You smoke because you won't get cancer.
You have sex without protection cuz you won't get pregnant.
You have sex without protection cuz you won't get aids.
You would never buy auto insurance if you didn't have to cuz you won't have an accident.
You can drink all night and drive home because you're special, the alcohol doesn't affect you.
You don't need life insurance, you won't die.
So many of us feel invincible until something happens close to home, its part of life experience, I think. |
Maybe It's just me but I never thought if I had unprotected sex I wouldn't get pregnant. There's a different between feeling invincible and being straight up stupid.
What I'm trying to say is that it should be common sense not to get into a strangers car....at ANY hour. Especially at night. No matter how nice or sweet they might seem. Again, why didn't she call a friend or a cousin or a parent? Why did she have to resort into getting to a strangers car? |

A person who jumps off a skyscraper by choice and dies on ground impact has committed suicide.
A person who stands at the rail looking out over the beautiful citiscape and is pushed over the rail does not deserve to die, did not ask to die. But wtf, anyone who stands so close to the rail could be pushed, right? (lol, sunsnail said it first!) That means they asked for it! |

ima have to go with echos on this one.
Rape by definition, unless statutory, is a sexual act committed against an unwilling person.
It doesn't matter how stupid the person was getting into that situation, beyond that point nothing is the that persons fault. People don't rape themselves, someone rapes them. |

her putting her self in the location of the crime does not make her party to the crime. this is doubly so when she is the victim of the crime.
lol, its basic ing criminal law. |

Are you people not ing reading what yukii and I and everyone else is writing? I am not SAYING rape is okay. IT IS NEVER OKAY. We know what rape means. We are saying that the girl is a ing moron for getting into a strangers car at 2:30 in the morning. It is wrong that she got raped. But she could have prevented this. Why the did she get inside the car VOLUNTARILY? Did she really think the guy was harmless and was going to waste his time and gas to go drop her off? Come the on. The girl is a straight up moron. |

What the guy did was WRONG and he should be ing charged. I'm not saying the guy is a saint here. He is a ed up individual and should have not done that. But he didn't even ing MAKE her get into the car. SHE chose to get in. Therefore she put herself into that situation. |
