[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A woman was stabbed while jogging near Logan Circle last night. The report said that she was waiting to cross 11th and P St. when three men attacked her. She died.

It happened before 8:00PM. That's really not late, especially in such a popular dining neighborhood. There would have been plenty of people around. [b]Be safe out there, ladies. [/b]

Are you suggesting that this woman who was killed was doing something unsafe?[/quote]

Oh please shut the hell up. We all know what was meant.[/quote]

I am not the OP, but I'm guessing that what was meant was: be careful not to do stuff that gets you murdered, ladies.

There are major problems with that kind of thinking.

Oh and pray tell, what would those problems be?[/quote]

Well, for starters:

- you don't get yourself murdered. Someone murders you.
- one person's control over another person's actions is very limited
- there is a lot of overlap between "leading a normal life in public places" and "the stuff that gets you murdered, ladies"
- lots of ladies do that stuff all the time and don't get murdered
- blaming women for getting themselves murdered is a long and time-honored tradition, but it needs to stop[/quote]
