Just because your decision had a reason does not remove your responsibility.

The Talibs did that already--wait, no, they stoned them to death.

Feh, same difference.

WELL, SHE'S RESPONSIBLE FOR BEING RAPED!   :lulz:

Yeah...she's the one with the vagina, so it's all her fault.

There's no choice in avoiding an accident on the road and saving your life, either.  Who fucking cares about the car?

See, I think you are picking out minutia that in the end, don't fucking matter, and shouldn't matter, and if they do, in the scheme of things, that person focusing on it should just shoot themselves and get it over with because life is too damned short to live like that.

very well the easiest choices aren't choices, but at what point does linear causality dissolve into choice?
or are there no choices?

shit happens and how you handle shit happening is your responsibility.
Bullshit.  A bad act by one renders all of the consequences - and responsibility - on that one.

assuming all other acts are less bad(or neutral or good)?
so the worst actor is the one on whom all the responsibilty falls.
Are those that do not help the rape victim responsible for what happened within their realm of influence or not?

Nope.  The initial bad actor is the one on whom the responsibility falls.

And the 17th century wants its views on rape back.

yes, and the rapist is responsible for acting on his eye being caught.
and the victim is responsible for his or her level of resistance.
and the rapist is responsible for not killing himself.


wow I can't even count the ways that is retarded

"level of resistance..?"
should have bulked up in the gym before hand?
Through me the way to the city of woe, Through me the way to everlasting pain, Through me the way among the lost.
Justice moved my maker on high.
Divine power made me, Wisdom supreme, and Primal love.
Before me nothing was but things eternal, and eternal I endure.
Abandon all hope, you who enter here.

When the obvious choice (save your own ass, fuck the car) is the ONLY choice, you don't have a choice.  Get it?  You.  Don't.  Have.  A.  Choice.  Responsibility ORVER.

Unless you're:  1) from the medieval times 2) from Afghanistan (same thing) or 3) the insurance company.

did i SAY the victim was responsible for getting raped? NO! i said she was responsible for actively 'cathing his eye' that is all.(hypothetical situation as i perceived it, i'm not saying its usually like that)  Its not a bad thing she did that and i'm not saying she's responsible for anything that someone else chose to do. you do not chose to get raped so thats not the victims fault.
Have i made myself clear?

choice requires the power to influence the result, with power comes responsibility. go read the first spiderman comic.
you are responsible for the results of your choices.

i'm repeating myself.

K.  You're really srs, arencha, saying to go read the comic book.  :lulz:

Anyway, no, choice is not power, etc. when it's life and death. Which is why they call it an "accident."

And how did she "actively" catch his eye?  I don't get that part.

really? i always feel like punching the people that just stand around watching bad things happen without interfering. they are not equally responsible but they are responsible for not improving the situation.

oh and responsibilty =/= blame

1. imagine a slightly les obvious choice.
2. is there a real choice now?
IF no GOTO 1.
IF yes voilá! responsibility starts at this point.
