Typical Tory blame culture

Yes, so 2 out of 3 are when they are sober - isn't that worse ?

Have a drink girls. Statistics say that you are less likely to be raped.

Statistics. I hate them.

Mr. HandyAndy - Really

 

where have all the kippers gone ?

 

my comment had no relation to your post - just wondered where they've all vanished to

I know, I know, I know it's not PC, but I can't help having a gut feeling that I'd have slightly less sympathy for a 'lady' who 'tarts herself up', wears the miniest of skirts, gets pi**ed out of her mind with her mates, shouts bawdy comments at passing males, behaves like a 'slapper' and, well, y'know...

Compared with a walking home from work, minding her own business, woman.

I know, I know I know - you don't have to tell me. Rape is abhorrent and unforgivable. But, y'know what I'm saying...

 

A lad I used to work with many years ago was charged, and found guilty of rape. He always claimed it was consensual. After about 9 months in prison, the girl he'd supposedly "raped" claimed she'd been raped again. When the police investigated, it turns out she'd already been "raped" twice before (the first "rape" wasn't brought up at my friend's trial, apparently might have prejudiced the chance of a successful prosecution ) Anyway, after a lengthy investigation, she was eventually charged with wasting police time. My friend's conviction was overturned as an "Unsafe Conviction" and was struck from his records..... However,, this event had it's effects on his life. When he came out of prison, he couldn't get a job. He had to explain to prospective employers his time in jail. Ruined his life for many years,,, and guess how much "compensation" he got,,,,,,,,, Absolutely sweet FA (unless you reckon the dole payments compensated him)

 

Tsk, women, eh?

 

Yep, the one I mention in my last post got a couple of years, whereas my mate would have done ten years, had she not been found out.

 

You do, of course, appreciate that your mate's situation is not usual...?

 

in much the same manner, as me and my very well sun tanned mate experienced a while back, not every dark skinned person on the tube with a rucksack is carrying a bomb

 

How uncommon is it?

Facts, figures, evidence.

 

Here's a comment to stir peeps (well, it's had over 3,000 replies on the Guardian website); "Date rape is bad. Stranger rape at knifepoint is worse. If you think that's an endorsement of date rape, go away and learn how to think."
