US ‘make rape legal’ group plans worldwide anti-woman event in 43 countries

Source: Raw Story



<snip>

The website promises 165 events in 43 countries at 8 p.m. local time on Saturday. Valizadeh has instructed his followers to go to a public location at each meeting area and identify themselves by asking, “Do you know where I can find a pet shop?” From there, group members will be taken to a secret meeting location.

Women and the LGBT community have been banned from attending the meetings.

Valizadeh argued on his blog last year that rape should be legal on private property.

“By attempting to teach men not to rape, what we have actually done is teach women not to care about being raped, not to protect themselves from easily preventable acts, and not to take responsibility for their actions,” he wrote at the time. “I thought about this problem and am sure I have the solution: make rape legal if done on private property.”

“I propose that we make the violent taking of a woman not punishable by law when done off public grounds,” Valizadeh said

He is a hate monger of the worst kind. When I think of my nieces being confronted by the likes of him, I can't even say what I would like to do to him.

The light is dark in this video.

A ‘pick-up artist’ who believes rape should be legalised was chased out of a Montreal bar after trying to chat up a group of women.

This video shows a bar full of people turning on Daryush Valizadeh, known as Roosh V, and chasing him through the streets.

The 35-year-old U.S writer and minor celeb has said he believes sexual assault should be legalised on private property and that he treats American women like ‘disposable razors’.

In the video women chuck beer in the man’s face as he tried to chat them up.

I'm ashamed to say he's from the US.

... and identify themselves by asking, 'Do you know where I can find a pet shop?'

Apparently, the correct code response is: "Yes, it's right here."

Supposedly there's a gathering planned for Glasgow.

Since I came across this information on Twitter without even looking for it, if some shifty-looking guys hang around Glasgow city centre next Saturday evening asking that question, they could find themselves taken somewhere for a "meeting" alright, but maybe not the sort of one they expected.

We're simply encouraging rapists to not take personal responsibility for protecting their lives.

If you kill in self-defense from rape, you are legally immune. Filling someone full of lead who's 25 feet away probably won't fly, but otherwise....

Like WHOSE private property? The rapist's private property? The victims private property? Private property owned by someone other than the rapist or victim? In other words, make rape legal everywhere except on the front lawn of the courthouse or the police station, right?

This is a guy who couldn't get any UNLESS he raped. That's why he's so angry with women. What a case study he would make.
