Liberals Always out to Shoot the Messenger

So what are campus police police supposed to do?

Colleges struggle with protecting students without being accused of victim-blaming

Don’t drink so much. "Stop victim-blaming."
Watch your drink. "Stop victim-blaming."
Walk in well-lit areas at night. "Stop victim-blaming."
If colleges cannot suggest basic common sense measures to protect students — which help guard against crimes that aren’t rape and help men as well — without being accused by the feminist chorus of blaming victims, what can they say?
“It's a tough line to tread because the blame should still be on the perpetrator, but you also want to protect these people,” Larkin Sayre, a sophomore at Massachusetts Institute of Technology told NPR.
Suggesting women don’t drink so much or don’t wear short skirts feels wrong, Sayre said, because being able to wear what one wants is “a basic human right” and “we don't tell men to not get blackout drunk.”
If there are people who aren’t telling men not to get blackout drunk then that definitely needs to change. No one should be getting blackout drunk, not just because of what crimes one could commit or have committed upon them, but for health reasons as well.
University of Wisconsin police spokesman Marc Lovicott argued that doing whatever it takes to protect students is more important than being politically correct.
“Man, it just seems like we live in such a politically correct society these days, and everybody's watching the words they use and they should be, I mean, to a certain extent,” Lovicott said. “But when it comes to crime prevention, we're not gonna stop.”
UW was under fire for its supposed victim-blaming crime prevention tips, which it has since updated.~snip~

There's just something wrong with the concept of condemning crime prevention by denouncing it as "victim blaming".
Saying that "men shouldn't rape" is a kind of a no shit Sherlock statement. But until saying that actually works then warning women how not to become victims seems like a pretty prudent thing to do.
I can't believe that this has become some kind of controversial thing.
Which brings up the fact that liberal objections to trying to warn women is more about an agenda than it is about them giving a damn about the victims.

A Nation of Victims:Update

While the liberal democrats are doing their best to disarm law abiding citizens some are providing a public service for women on what to do if attacked.
From the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs.

What To Do If You Are Attacked

These tips are designed to help you protect yourself on campus, in town, at your home, or while you travel.  These are preventative tips and are designed to instruct you in crime prevention tactics.
1.Be realistic about your ability to protect yourself.
2.Your instinct may be to scream, go ahead!  It may startle your attacker and give you an opportunity to run away.
3.Kick off your shoes if you have time and can't run in them.
4.Don't take time to look back; just get away.
5.If your life is in danger, passive resistance may be your best defense.
6.Tell your attacker that you have a disease or are menstruating.
7.Vomiting or urinating may also convince the attacker to leave you alone.
8.Yelling, hitting or biting may give you a chance to escape, do it!
9.Understand that some actions on your part might lead to more harm.
10.Remember, every emergency situation is different.  Only you can decide which action is most appropriate.  

What liberals are trying to do is create a nation of victims, number 8 is the only tip that really suggests active defense followed closely by number 9. Which is basically liberal speech for "accept the inevitability and <insert alternative here>".
 Notice mace and pepper spray are omitted, I wonder if that's a tacit admission that they rarely work?
Personally I'd prefer that the attacker does the urinating while facing down the barrel of a 9mm Glock.
Which, interestingly, didn't make the list.

Here's a nice little addendum to this post.

The charge of which party is really tone deaf on the issue of violence against women is up in the air again.
