Virginia GOP candidate: Spousal rape isn’t a crime if she is ‘wearing a nightie’

[slim 1,533]

I shake my head when I hear about women getting raped... and then going back to sleep with the same dude the next night. Sorry, ladies, I don't feel sorry when you go back for more.

And the ladies who get raped by a dude they just met at the bar after going home with him at 3:30 wearing their best prostitute starter kit? Sorry. No empathy there either.

"But slim, women never deserve to be raped. No means no. Rape isn't about what she's wearing and she's never asking for it and...." Blah, blah, blah. All you champions of common sense on other topics seem to lose your heads when it comes to "a lady" getting violated. Then you disappear when a smokin hot 23-year-old teacher rapes her 16-year-old male students. Why? Because he has ####### he was asking for it. Right?

And I am going to be roasted for this, but that chick that let Mike Tyson fondle her in the Limo, then went upstairs, got naked and.did all kind of sexual stuff, then claimed she said no right before penetration.

Zero sympathy.. ZERO

Who took responsibility for the Beirut bombing, instead of denying everything. I think the worst part was them trying to play it off as a protest gonewrong, and make some filmaker the bad guy

Beirut? You have to go back that far? Tell me, who took responsibility for the 13 attacks on US Embassies and Consulates from 2001 through 2008? How many investigation did Darrell Issa initiate for these attacks? What Republican outrage was there over these attacks and all the dead?

Spare me that hypocritical BS.

1. Jan. 22, 2002: Harkat-ul-Jihad al-Islami Attacks Indian U.S. Consulate

Five policemen were killed and 16 injured in the eastern Indian city of Calcutta because of an attack on the U.S. consulate by militant group Harkat-ul-Jihad al-Islami.

The State Department had warned of a potential strike against the Saudi days before gunmen infiltrated the Al Hamra Oasis Village and two others killing 36 people and wounding 160.

The Saudi government cracked down on terrorists group but that did not prevent another attack to occur a year later in Jeddah.

6. July 30, 2004: Islamist Attacks U.S. Embassy in Tashkent, Uzbekistan

Gunmen fought their way into the complex, reportedly taking 18 staff and visa applicants hostage for a short time before Saudi security forces stormed the building. The final dead counted four security guards, five staff, and three attackers. No Americans were among the dead.

8. March 2, 2006: Third Attack on Karachi U.S. Consulate Killed U.S. Diplomat

U.S. Diplomat David Foy was specifically targeted in the third attack in as many years on the Karachi consulate compound. He was one of four people killed. The bomb occurred two days before President Bush was to visit Pakistan and also targeted the Marriot hotel in an upscale neighborhood of Karachi.

This was a planned and coordinated attack that nobody covered as more than a news item.

9. Sept. 12, 2006: Four Gunmen Stormed the U.S. compound in Damascus, Syria

Gunmen yelling "Allahu akbar " - "God is great" - fired on Syrian security officers guarding the U.S. embassy. The gunmen used grenades, automatic weapons, car bombs, and a truck bomb and killed four people and wounded 13 others. Condoleezza Rice, then Secretary of State praised the Syrians that defended the U.S. employees: "the Syrians reacted to this attack in a way that helped to secure our people, and we very much appreciate that."

10. Jan. 12, 2007: Greek Terrorists Fired a Rocket-Propelled Grenade at the U.S. Embassy

An antitank grenade was fired into the empty consulate building by leftist terrorist group Revolutionary Struggle angry at American foreign policy. Even though nobody was in the building at the time the attack was a blatant breach of security and showed enormous security loopholes.

Similar to the Greek attack, a mortar was fired at the U.S. embassy building killing 19 people and injuring 16. This was the second attempt at a similar mortar attack on the embassy. The first one missed the embassy and hit a girls' school next door.

An arsenal of weapons including rocket-propelled grenades and two car bombs were involved in the second attack on the embassy in seven months. Eighteen-year-old American Susan El-Baneh and her husband of three weeks died holding hands.

Yeah, the US must have been perceived as particularly weak when Mr. Rumsfeld was Secretary of Defense.

I don't really care who you do or do not have sympathy for to be honest, I do care if a person who wishes to represent all his constituents makes it quite clear that he does not care nor understand the issues of some of those self same constituents. You can be as ignorant as you want to be about marital rape, it's really not that big of a deal but someone who seeks election should have a greater understanding of these things and not display monumental ignorance and bigotry.

Your opinion isn't really that important, you were not at the trial so your opinion on the matter is necessarily limited and that's ok. The jury says you are wrong and that is all that really matters at this point.

Is disagreeing with something the same as "monumental ignorance and bigotry?" Because I'm with the guy on this one. If you stay with a dude that's abusive you have ZERO right to cry rape.

If you disagree with something because you can't be bothered to research what you are talking about then yes, it's ignorant. As you clearly have no clue about abuse and how victims react to abuse then I have to say you are in fact as ignorant as the candidate, the difference is what you believe is unimportant.

[slim 1,533]

Victims react by going back for more. That's stupid. I can't feel sorry for their stupidity.

No offense but I believe your comparison is missing the point. It is never good when Americans are attacked and killed no matter who is residing in the white house. There have been numerous attacks during the Obama administration that you failed to list. The difference with Benghazi is the flat misleading information that the current administration repeated iver and over again. Did Bush or anyone in his administration come out and try to blame any of those attacks you mentioned on anything other than terrorists? I think the Obama administration was reluctant to place the blame where it rightly belonged because it didn't fit into his speech "Osama bin Laden is dead and Al Qaeda is decimated" or whatever it wad he said. That's where the outrage lies. Edited January 16, 2014 by Merle

The point is that the right has been busy politicizing this tragic attack on our Consulate before the bodies of these four Americans were even cold. That's unprecedented. They had no shame politicizing the death of four Americans abroad. They falsely claimed that this attack is a sign of perceived weakness disregarding the many attacks and many more deaths that occurred under their own watch. They falsely claimed - and still do - some mysterious cover-up where no investigation has ever born that out or supported that. They falsely claimed that the administration did not acknowledge this as an act of terror. And yet, the first time the President spoke after the incident, he called it precisely that. They falsely claimed - and still do - that this was the work of AlQaeda where absolutely no evidence exists that it was. Not then and not now. Both the extensive investigative piece the NYT published as well as the Senate Committee report released lately acknowledge that this was not a "highly coordinated plot, but was opportunistic.”

Make no mistake, the outrage over this incident is purely political and as fabricated and fake as the outrage over the IRS scandal that wasn't. Nothing but hyped up bullshite that the right sought to elevate to fact by repeating it over and over and over. It seems to have worked on some but it ain't working on those that think for themselves.

We are just going to have to agree to disagree. This speech was on the 25th of September 2012, two weeks after the Benghazi attack. Not once did he mention terrorists or terrorism, unless I somehow missed it but I don't think I did. He did however mention a "video" at 10:20 and 13:56. As far as the different sides politicizing events, it goes both ways. The bridge in New Jersey that Chris Christie allegedly closed has been on MSNBC nonstop and yet there hasn't been a smoking gun linking him to it. I'm going to quote Hillary Clinton and say "what difference does it make?" seeing that the American people voted him in for another term anyways. BTW, wasn't this thread supposed to be about women in night gowns getting raped?
