that email did not support rape

Yes, it did. It said western women were all sluts who were asking to be molested or raped. I'm not surprised that your blog attracts sickos like that either.

Kope never said he supports rape, nor did the email he received. In fact, the email only disputed who should be blamed for the sin that is rape.

Much as Fred Phelps doesnt "support" murdering homosexuals.

I know their kind.
They are misogynistic impotent little clowns. The fact that Kope is too stupid to see that for himself is probably one of his main problems, that I hope he gets worked out in therapy

We all used to think like that.

Really? Well, I never thought that scantily clad women deserved to be raped, don't know about you.

What? How did you understand that from my post?

Umm, because that's what the previous post was about?

Hang on, let me get this right.

Do you think that in my previous post I said that everybody at some point in their lives believed provocatively dressed women should be raped?

And he wants to blame the victim and said that the victims were asking for it, so IMO that is tantamount to supporting rape. Views like that certainly have the practical effect of supporting rape.

Kope posted those emails as examples of viewpoints he agreed with. In other words, he was saying that he believes Western women deserve to be raped. This is disgusting and he needs a swift boot in the bollocks. Kthnxbai.

You probably didn't mean it like that but given the flow of the posts it could certainly be read like that. You should probably phrase your posts with more care if you don't want them to be misinterpreted.

Your two e-mail correspondents sound like a pair of nutters, and the first one is undoubtedly on the Sex Offenders Register.

Nah, they're just kids with an imaginative mind. You can tell by their approach; if you come up with a random explanation which seems possible (how likely or unlikely it is is not considered) then it is true, no other explanation need be considered. Indeed, you can think of a random explanation for anything, and it's probably possible. For example, Cows circle the earth at night time making sure stars are evenly spread out in the sky to make it look pretty from below. It's possible, therefore it's true.

We all used to think like that.

Errrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....No I think if you misinterpret this it is your own fault

Kope quoted an e-mail which stated that Western women were all sluts who were asking to be raped and molested. I responded by saying that the author of the e-mail was a nutter from the Sex Offenders Register, and you responded with...

It certainly looked to me like you were saying that such opinions are merely childish trifles of the type we all once believed in - like Santa Claus maybe, or the Tooth Fairy.

However, people can read the exchange themselves and make up their own minds whether or not you were misunderstood, and if so whose fault that misunderstanding was. I have nothing further to say on the subject.

Ok, what I'm saying is that it is a very childish way of thinking to conjure up a hypothetical explanation of something, evaluate whether it is possible or impossible, and if you evaluate it as possible, then you automatically take it to be true, without the next consideration of whether it is probable.

Now when a child or someone who still thinks in such a way explains something in this way, he or she may come up with conclusions that are trivial, such as Santa, or quite disturbing, such as that provocatively dressed women should be blamed if they are raped.

I NEVER said that all the conclusions that such a person comes out with in this way are of equal importance, as some people have misinterpreted. Have I explained myself properly this time?
