I condemn the act of rape, but I'm not going condemn anyone or an entire country without any factual evidence okay. I hope I made myself clear on that.

Didn`t stop you from bashing those that were condemning them though...

DId I hurt your feelings or something? You take that as bashing? All I said was that I find it strange to focus on the country, instead of the individuals that committed the act. You know the punishment for rape in UAE is death, so I think they take these things seriously.

People should really know what these countries are like.

If this happens, don't report it! Leave asap.

Perhaps because we don't know who are the people and that independent of who they are their behavior is despicable... but encarcerating someone as having non-marital sex when the person was raped is completely bonkers, but you preffer to concentrate on the unknow guys and the woman possibly be lying.

So now it`s gone to bashing the woman? Yeah.... makes much more sense to bash the country. It doesn`t even matter if she`s lying or not, she at least deserves to have the case properly investigated and not just `oh you might be lying so we`re just going to execute you` that`s just a pathetic justice system.

 

I condemn the act of rape, but I'm not going condemn anyone or an entire country without any factual evidence okay. I hope I made myself clear on that.

No you aren't clear at all.

This isn't a isolated case of "someone reported a false crime and therefore is jailed", this is a cultural phenomenon on arabic countries to jail and even kill woman on base of sharia and threat a woman that suffered (or may have) rape as the criminal itself because she had extra-marital sex. Doesn't that seems a lot more worrysome than the action of the 2 guys?

Do you always ask if you hurt someone's feelings when a person disagrees with your arguments?

That aside, it's not strange to focus on the country when its government enforces such regressive laws such as punishing rape victims rather harshly. And as I mentioned earlier, the woman was arrested after reporting the rape. The officials didn't arrest her because they caught her lying when holding an investigation.

Anyway, I heard about this, and it's ridiculous. I hope no women travel there on vacation. They don't deserve your money.

Or maybe its the place to be if you're looking to get gang raped.

If people wanna keep going there knowing the problems, so be it I guess.

On a sidenote, all this talk about Dubai makes me wanna play some Spec Ops.

See, victim blaming is not limited to the Middle East!



What a fucked place. I wouldn't be caught dead there, not even for the plethora of exotic cars rotting in the sand.

Threats exist and always will, I suggest lowering your odds of being a victim.

This is why I have guns and improve my ability to defend myself. So I can better handle threats and protect people.

But still, your mind defaulted on "the woman shouldn't have gone there" instead of "a woman shouldn't have to worry about getting raped when she goes outside". Also, I'm not sure about the last line, because I'm not against the second amendment.
