[Tambora]

How should they be treated?
With compassion or blame?

 

[ok doser]

With consolation and comfort

Josephine is planning to go down to the Ferguson protests dressed in klan robes and a hood, carrying a sign that says "Michael Brown Deserved To Be Shot!" and shout racial slurs at the protesters. Josephine tells her plans to her friend Francine. Francine says "Don't do it - they'll beat you up and rape you." Josephine says "You're not the boss of me - I'll do what I want!" Josephine goes down to the Ferguson protests dressed in klan robes and a hood, carrying a sign that says "Michael Brown Deserved To Be Shot!" and shouts racial slurs at the protesters. Josephine gets beaten and raped. Those who beat and rape Josephine are arrested and charged. Francine comes to visit Josephine in the hospital. Josephine whines about how unfair it was that she got beaten and raped. Francine says "What are you talking about? You deserved to get beaten and raped. I told you not to go down there. You chose to get beaten and raped. Next time don't be such a moron."

Compassion, and hopefully empathy.

Compassion.

 

[Tambora]

Nothing deserving of rape.

and next week, plan on visiting her in the hospital again when she does the same thing again

That is what a decent person would do.


An indecent person would say:
Unless they were asking for it.
You deserved to get beaten and raped.
You chose to get beaten and raped.
(All said in your spoiler.)

 

[Tambora]

Compassion and empathy.

a decent person will lie to them and let them get hurt again? :freak:

Compassion and love, in an effort to heal.

[Quincy]

Compassion, love and help to heal. I think the most important thing for accomplishing that, is making someone feel protected. It's important to give a victim an outlet where they aren't judged or humiliated.

why coddle an assault victim if they brought it on themselves?
