And if you do drink and drive, don’t blame the car, the other passengers, the bartender, the other cars on the road etc for the wreck.

What if you drink and are shot? Mugged? That someone is drunk does not give a free pass to do whatever you want to them. That someone acts stupidly and thoughtlessly puts themselves in harm’s way does not justify a crime against them.

People are to blame for their own actions. If a drunk girl is raped — she is to blame for getting drunk, and he’s to blame for raping her. If she is responsible for her actions, HE MUST BE RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS.
