Ok, so you are calling half of Millennials ignorant for not getting their facts straight, yet you yourself do not remember your own source, nor the exact percentages and, despite that, are drawing some conclusion from it. Sadly, ignorance transcends generations.
I am not making a comparison between assault and rape. I am illustrating that you are making a logical fallacy by victim blaming. Person A is in situation B, therefore they deserve to have action C happen to them. The statement I made about rape is no more illogical than your statement about...
Yes, if someone gets hurt or robbed while wearing Google Glass, then they were definitely asking for it. Just like a woman who is raped while wearing a short dress. Totally asking for it. Why can't everyone just understand that upon subscribing to social norms, all risk of personal injury...

Once, a farmer wrote a formal letter to Nobel Prize committee complaining that they arent being fair in their selections. He wrote that he understands Nobel Prizes are awarded to persons outstanding in their field. He claims he has been out, standing in his field continuously for three days and...
I should not ride the Metro because I cannot afford the Metro, much less Metro 2033, however, either prize would give me an excuse to save my pennies for a new gaming rig.
