My question would be, why was a 14yo passed out at a party? Adult beverages, I presume.

Maybe her best buddy who goes to Sunday school with her grabbed a 1/5 from dads liquor cabinet....maybe they were just being teen girls like most every other teen girl has been since there were teen girls on this rock. Jesus/

So in your world, 14 year old, un-supervised girls passing out drunk or high at parties where they can be sexually assaulted and then murdered by older guys is a rite of passage...just a normal part of growing up? WTF?

I must assume that you are not very old. Teenage girls in America, before about 1980, were usually much more careful in protecting themselves. Time was a girl would never use profanity in public or drink to excess lest men assume she was of loose morals.

Please do not accuse me of a “blame-the-victim” mentality. I am merely saying that young women today often make unwise choices that put them in harm’s way. A girl drinking herself into a stupor at a party is acting as foolishly as a man walking down a dark alley with money hanging out of his pockets.
