[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there is an inherent problem with how people define "victim blaming". Here is an example: A person decides to walk down a city street late at night while holding a bunch of cash over their head and singing loudly. Someone robs them. I say: "That person should have not walked down that street doing that". That statement is an undeniable truth. Their decision played a role in what happened. BUT...I am NOT blaming them. The fault lies solely on the person who robbed them. That person shouldn't have done a bad thing, not matter what. Again, I'm not BLAMING the victim, but they did play a role and could have made better decisions (even though they shouldn't have to). Do you still think I'm victim-blaming? [/quote] You are one of the people OP is talking about trying to hard to see everything as simple and easily avoided. How much time do you spend with victims?[/quote]
