Representative Who Stated Immigrant Women Should Be Afraid To Report Rape Now Compares Them To Drunk Drivers




When Massachusetts Representative Ryan Fattman discussed his views on immigration and the relationship between illegal immigrants and the police, he made it clear that he believes the victim should weigh the threat of being deported against the benefit of having protection from the police. Stating women "should" feel scared to go to the police if they are victims of assault or sexual assault, Fattman essentially gave a green light to criminals: anyone who appeared to be foreign would be a good target for an attack, since the odds of being punished would go down because the victim would be afraid to report it.

Fattman was given a chance to clarify his comments due to the media uproar that ensued. Instead, he reaffirmed his earlier statement, this time comparing women in the country illegally and getting sexually assaulted to drunks who get in car accidents after having too much to drink.

Via The Phoenix:

According to Fattman, the Telegram quote ignores some key context: "If someone got into a car accident, it's obviously a tragic event. But if they're drunk and they crash, it's a crime," he explained. "If that person was drunk and survived the accident they would be afraid to come forward. I think if someone is here illegally they should be afraid to come forward because they should be afraid to be deported."

I asked him he thought that analogy really held weight. After all, if you drink and crash a car, that's your fault; if you're undocumented and get beaten up or raped, it's absolutely not.

"But if you weren't here, the crime wouldn't happen," Fattman says.

See that? If she didn't want to be raped, she shouldn't have been in the country. Just like a car accident is the logical possible outcome of the impaired senses that comes with drinking, being raped is apparently the logical possible outcome of being a woman in this country.

I guess that's why lawmakers advocate rape insurance.

President Obama needs to get his shit together!!!

Representative Ryan Fattman is such a dumb ass.. This article made me sick to my stomach..

The is named fattman....

It made me angry and I feel like breack something to calm my anger down. This retared has some mental problem. Obama schould take every single extreme words from these rebulicans and find eassy road to his 2nd term. Public needs to realize about these basterds.

The best comment in that article is "I'd rather have illegal immigrants than fellow citizens who think like him." Hah....This congressman disgusts EVERYONE.

seriously, how are these people getting elected. Its not as if they are entirely hiding who they are, I mean, look at Florida's Governor, largest lawsuit in US history for defrauding medicare and he beat a candidate who was credited with saving pension funds and now we have someone essentially letting would be rapist know that if they know someone that is undocumented they can be raped because its their fault for being here in the first place. Its this some kind of sick tactic to try and get people to leave?

lol! This post is funny. In fact, I am going to print it and frame it lol!!!!!!!!!!!!

lmfao!

It's simple. The average American does not pay attention to politics the way that we do. Our lives depend on the push and pull of what happens in Congress and the average American could really care less. They pay attention to politics every four years for the presidential election and that's about it. And we, at times, know more about a certain candidate's track record than necessary. So, that's how these douche bags slip in during the process.

Absolutley despicable, some people are ridiculous, how did this man get elected? Since when does advocating rape become acceptable? If I remember correctly, even criminals in this country have the right to abstain from "cruel and unusual punishment." Let the record stand, if any criminal thinks he's gonna have his way with me or any women I know and get off scot-free he's got another thing coming. He's liable to lose some body parts.
