You will need to forgive me for misinterpretting this: 'But again, if you don't secure thing and you leave it wide open, don't be surprised when someone comes it. Not leaving it secured is akin to putting a neon sign over it and saying come on in...especially if you are a public figure.'
As you saying 'she deserved it'...it seems like a logical conclusion to me. To me, saying a victim 'deserved' what happened to them, is the same as defending those who perpetrated the crime.
