A coalition of civil liberties and immigrant rights groups have sued the Trump administration for detaining migrants incommunicado at the offshore prison camp in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, after they were initially taken into custody in the United States.

    If someone breaks into my house after I didn’t lock the door, all the anger should be directed at the thief. The first reaction shouldn’t be to cast blame on me for having an unlocked door. My door shouldn’t have to be locked even if it’s common sense to do so. The actual act to scrutinize should ONLY be the theft.

      If someone breaks into my house and there’s a huge amount of evidence showing who did it, and I present that evidence to the police, and they do nothing and then the thief comes back and breaks in again, I’m going to be super mad at the police. They failed at their job.

      Mad at the thief too, of course. But also mad at the police. I can be mad at two different groups.

        So if someone was sexually assaulted before it’s ok to ask them what they wore if it happens again?

      If someone breaks into your house after you heard they wanted to for over a decade, and you had just been looking at door locks yesterday but decided it wasn’t necessary, the fault still lies with the thief, but you still ignored a clear and obvious threat until after it became realized, which is pretty fucking stupid.

        So you can ask a woman what she was wearing if you think there was a reasonable expectation of being assaulted?

          No. Don’t put words in people’s mouths. You clearly aren’t up to this conversation, I hope you have a nice day.

            I’m not putting words in your mouth. I’m drawing appropriate analogies. If you want to take your ball and leave then be my guest. No need for the fake well wishes
