Claire McCaskill Blasts "Rape Culture", Warns Against "Placing Blame In All The Wrong Places"
Claire McCaskill:
Missouri Senator Blasts Rape Culture, Warns Against 'Placing Blame In All The Wrong Places': McCaskill responded this Thursday… explained that, since many people who still don’t think rape culture is a real thing, arguments like Taranto’s are repeated beyond the pages of the WSJ:
Mr. Taranto says that I’m involved in a crusade to “criminalize male sexuality.” For decades, from my time as a courtroom prosecutor and throughout my career in public service, I have indeed done my best to criminalize violence. And I have never subscribed to Mr. Taranto’s bizarre and deeply out of touch understanding of sexual assault as somehow being a two-way street between a victim and an assailant. Mr. Taranto’s arguments contribute to an environment that purposely places blame in all the wrong places, and has made the current culture and status quo an obstruction to sorely needed change.
