The reason people don't like this response is because it's only used for rape. If I drink myself into oblivion and someone comes in my house, takes my keys, and steals my car not one single person will be like "well...I mean, I'm not saying it's you're fault...but you could have protected yourself if you weren't so drunk".
I don't think it's a statement only used for rape.
Drunk people are more vulnerable to lots of crime I don't think it's unheard of for people to be made awake of it.
People will have their phones hanging out of their pocket, or go over and start conversations with obviously violent aggressive people who they would normally avoid while sober.
I think there's loads of crimes where someone might say the victim shouldn't have drank so much but that's not to say it wouldn't be a callous thing to say though.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
