So, that's a backpeddle on the women's voting rights? Cool.

No, I think they should be able to vote and defend themselves. I don't think it would be right for you to backpedal on women's suffrage like that.

What needs to happen is this woman, or her dad, or her brother, should have tracked down Foley before he died and kicked him in the balls and beaten the shit outta him. In fact, maybe Joan Jett should have made it up to her and helped her beat the shit outta Foley. This wanting closure and being able to forgive... it's all bullshit. Nothing heals better than justice, especially extra-judicial justice. I mean WTF... "Fuchs mentioned that the two stayed in touch to an extent after her assault"

Sorry for being totally politically incorrect, but this ain't the Huffington Post.

And BTW, I know several sexual assault victims. Similar stories of how people simply stood around and did nothing. The victims simply wanted justice and to make sure the perpetrators never did it again. The problem is that they are so traumatized they really don't know how to approach it. Beatings on pieces of shit like Foley and shattering his balls tend to discourage such behaviors in the future and in turn provide a lot of healing to the victims. Anger if not properly addressed turns to sorrow, the bad kind of sorrow.

Anaxilus' words:
"You think you empower women letting them vote"
Part A.
"but don't want them to be trained or have access to a force multiplier to level the playing field against an attacker?"
Part B.
"BS."
Part C.
"People who believe that are the ones waging a war on women. Total hypocrites."
Part D.

I totally agree with Anaxilus. Part A is not denying women anything including voting rights. Part B explains his self-defence argument and Part D explains "BS" in a sentence.

How much more context do you need? I will use a sword metaphor: the most skilled sword fighters can stab and slice before you blink but you perceive neither, you are already hit.

(Practice advanced foil fencing and you will understand the how timing and flexible blades combine stabbing and slicing techniques. Watch fencing slow motion footage in high quality to get an idea! Video URL: )

@OJ, look up the old tests southern whites used to use to prevents blacks from voting. But yeah, it's okay in theory, just that we want more participation in the voting process in the U.S., not less. Maybe a test combined with other things so more people vote.

Do we really want "more" participation or do we want better elected candidates?

Can we automatically disqualify Americans who have pretend relatives in Kenya?
