Ok, I think your examples are a little silly, but I'll play along. > If your hypothetical woman went to a frat party and lay down in the living room with her legs spread while fondling her breasts what do you think would happen?
A LOT of cheering and flash photography. > Would that be rape? Abso-fucking-lutely it is. > Is what she did wise? No, but wisdom isn't a pre-requisite to being a victim. > Is it a recommended course of actiom? No, but it doesn't make her any less a victim. > Would you suggest it to your daughter Absolutely not. However it still doesn't diminish the crime. > girlfriend Shhhh, my wife might be reading. > or sister? Actually she could probably use a little action. haha. > Is it still rape? Absolutely. > Would her behavior be a factor in the decision not to prosecute? Absolutely. The DA makes decisions based on whether a conviction would be forth-coming. NOT whether a crime was committed. So it's a bit of a disingenuous point you make. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
