In fact, I'll go a step further and say it's the callous victim-blaming attitude from YOU, and people like you who are at the root of women's pause about reporting their rapes. You're part of the problem, and you don't even see it. So fuck you.

Drich, I'm beyond disgusted. There isn't much else I can say that hasn't already been said.

No big surprises there. Most of Drippy's posts fall under that kind of category. I always keep saying, if atheism was in need of advertisment, Drippy should do it.

It's hard for Drich to surprise anymore, but every now and again, he actually makes me cringe.
Hard to do anymore.

He's lost that ability with his child beating thread.

Oh, with the praying for AIDS and cancer, the child beating, the trans thread, it's all part of the mess that is Drich.
But I avoid his posts so much that when I am confronted with one after such a time, there is an element of surprise...

Report, report, report.
Yeah, so the guy can get 6 months in prison and be out in 3? That's hardly justice worth suffering for, at least for some women.

I think we can all agree that that case is an outlier, LfC.
As for the derail, all I can say to Drich is ... pineapple or cactus?

The state can prosecute even when a defendant refuses to do so. It's obviously much easier for the state to prosecute if the alleged victim cooperates, and a person who does not cooperate cannot reasonably expect a preferred outcome. Obviously, I don't think that this advances the cause of justice..but it's not my call to make.
