Washington Free Beacon ^ | July 14,2015 | Staff

Attendees of a major conference of left-wing activists this week are being asked not to rape other attendees, according to conference materials posted online.

“We want our attendees to have a great time, but please remember that sexual consent is always essential,” advises a program handed out to attendees of the 2015 Netroots Nation conference.

The conference, which will kick off in Phoenix, Ariz., this week, features some of the nation’s leading Democratic politicians and liberal activists.

The note about sexual consent appears in a portion of the program advising attendees of the conference’s “safe space policy.”

The request on a program handed out to attendees at a Netroots Nation Conference not to rape other attendees really demonstrates how liberal,left-wingers have been maligned, misunderstood. It really demonstrates the moral foundation, the principled concern for their fellow would-be rape victims to at least refrain from ruining the conference with rowdy behavior, criminal activity. Imagine the conference swarming with authorities interfering with scheduled activities trying to identify sexual predators, perpetrators, messing things up in a big way. Netroots attendees are like everyone else just trying to have a good time instead of dealing with the hassles of coercion, sexual molestation or being forced to do things against their will.

Come on, you conservative perverts! Have you ever heard of any such request at right wing,conservative or even RINO conferences? No! Because conservatives are hypocrites. They'll rape you without letting you know beforehand what they're up to.

Kudos to Netroots for their consideration and thoughtfulness.

I don’t want to be at a conference where the attendees are assumed to be so evil and vile as to need to be “asked” not to rape people.

Boy, this conference is going to be a boring one.

They don’t think very highly of their attendees.

No one has ever felt the need to ask me not to rape anyone.

but please remember that sexual consent is always essential

No Shite Sherlock.

I have to wonder about a conference that has to remind people about that.

Remember, to the properly educated, correctly thinking leftwinger, "All men are potential rapists." Can't be too careful.

Attendee: “Well then what the hell are we ‘sposed to do in our spare time?”

We already know that Pigressives are the party of rapists.

“No Shite Sherlock. I have to wonder about a conference that has to remind people about that.”

But you have to bear in mind that these are hardened Dims/leftists/commies. It’s the same group that caused regulators to require warnings on batteries to not drink the battery acid.

This also dovetails with their latest idiotic talking point, which is “we should be teaching men not to rape”, as if we don’t already do that, and as if rapists simply aren’t aware of the rules.

You will never hear this at a NRA or Shot Show. All the lady’s got those little anti-rape guns and will shoot your rape unit off. Only rape in gun free zones!

Netroots Nation used to be called Yearly Kos. It evolved out of the Daily Kos world.

How can they have their meeting in Phoenix when Arizona passed that illegal immigration law? Don’t these liberals know you are supposed to boycott people and places which don’t live up to your Utopian ideas?????

Interesting that NutRoots picked Phoenix in the middle of summer.

I suppose prices are good then.

I am shocked about this.

Do they have a.problem with people going there thinking its an orgy?

Do they have problems with people thinking liberal girls there are, shall we say, “easy”??

Do they really have attendees thinking its spring break???

And please don’t stick sharp objects into anyone, unless they say it’s ok. Thank you for your cooperation and hope you have a great time!

What about stabbing people?

Lynchings?

Shouldn't those crimes be mentioned too?

No tossing young children off hotel balconies either, right?
