In reply to the discussion: Pam Geller lashes out at critics: You’re saying the ‘pretty girl caused her own rape’ [View all]MellowDem
(5,018 posts)The only comparison being made is the rape apologists logic to those blaming Geller, and it's the same.
You're blaming Geller for the violent actions of another because she organized an event.
It doesn't matter if she hoped for an attack for publicity. It's not her fault.
Your analogy was terrible. If you want to remove victimhood from it, which it was never about anyways, but which follows right along with rape apologists logic, then an apt analogy would be an LGBT rights activist and organizer of an event in a very homophobic country that sponsors a contest to vote for the sexiest naked homosexual couples, and hires heavy security, expecting, nay hoping, for attempted violence to bring more attention to their cause. An attack happens.
So fucking what!? It's not the organizer's fault, it's only the attacker's fault.
You are excusing violence, you are justifying violence when it's a viewpoint you don't like, it's the exact same disgusting logic as a rape aplogist.
