They are still victims. If a woman gets raped there is a mentality
that she
asked for it because she dressed too sexually, or was in the park

night, or she flirted with a guy and he took it as a go signal. Would
you
say that a woman had the choice of wearing something less sexual and
therefore it's her choice to get raped? Or that she shouldn't flirt
because she then made a choice to get raped?

If I walk outside and get mugged, is it my fault? I made a choice to
leave
my apartment so it's my fault. I made a choice to live in a not so
nice
area so it's my fault.

This is where we disagree.
It is like the fools that ski out of the safe area, get in trouble
and expect "someone" to rescue them. Or climbers whose
task excedes there skill, again tehy want someone else to
bail them out.
800+K decided to rsik living in a disater waitingto happen.
Most had sense enough to flee withthe warnings. Those who
didn't, excepting those who where too sick, ill infirm, got what
they deserved.

Sad, yea but natures a bitch.

Actually, neither one of your examples is about nature, it's about choice.
They chose to ski outside the area or chose to climb the mountain.


Way different from a woman getting raped. Nature doesn't rape
anyone.

And nature doesn't force anyone to climb a mountain or ski off a cliff.
It's choice.

It takes the action of a man, OK I guess a few women have
raped but damned few, to rape. Tehwoman may have been foolsih,
stupid or just ignorant of the danger, but the preditor still decided
to
rape and foolwed throguh on that action.

The usual response by men is that they (women) asked for it.


Big difference between rape and getting washed away, burried in snow
or stranded on a mountain. We try and imprison, or execute rapists.
We have to bow, or at least pay attention to mother nature.

Live below sea level, stay in a storm and drown.
Very simple. You can save yourself by LEAVING.

Katrina and rape could only be confussed in a liberal's mind.

And only a conservative would blame the victim.
