She calls it an "epidemic" but in the US and much of the rest of the world rates of rape have plummeted within the last few dacades (one source says an 85% drop since 1980 in the US).<br /><br />Outraged enough to design a shirt but can't be bothered to read a book or even an article on the subject? What a lovely human being. I imagine she's one of those people whose whole worldview comes from things forwarded to their AOL account.Andrew Lenahanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801508126208476261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-62711835963254668262011-06-15T19:15:02.753-04:002011-06-15T19:15:02.753-04:00I'm sure she's one of those people who cha...I'm sure she's one of those people who changed her profile picture on facebook to a cartoon character to show she's against pedophilia or something.

But you see, nowadays we've all become a little desensitized to everything. So if someone's like "MEAT IS WRONG" we just sort of nod while thinking "well frankly, fuck their opinion."<br /><br />That's why this chick is getting angry about rape, if you ask me. She wants something to get upset about, or more accurately she wants people to get upset at for not crusading like her. Rape is just a hard to mock topic, because it's like like anyone is gonna openly laugh at you if you say you really hate raping. I mean if you say that you don't eat meat because you don't like cruelty to animals, most people nowadays are either going to pretend to sympathize or call you a pussy to your face. <br /><br />Also, there's the whole veiled threat that any sort of unwanted moves on the guy's part is gonna get you arrested. But that's a different issue.Pinkertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09737889205968450015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-32589971476443243872011-06-15T17:53:07.663-04:002011-06-15T17:53:07.663-04:00Wearing a T-shirt hardly counts in stopping rape.....Wearing a T-shirt hardly counts in stopping rape.... What is she going to do, show up everytime someone is about to rape another person and tell them "Oh no, don't do that..." and point to the symbol on her shirt?
