Austin Sues Skirt Manufacturers for Rape

Following on such "blame the victim" lawsuits like:

Cities Sue Hyundai, Kia After Wave of Car Thefts

Chicago is arguing that Glocks are machine guns because they can easily have "Glock switches" (autosears) added to make the guns into machine guns. Therefore, the Austrian gun company and it's American branch must be held responsible for the behavior of felonious hoodrats using Chinese-made products sold and imported illegally.

Austin, TX, not to be outdone, decided to sue several popular clothing manufacturers for rape. Their theory, articulated in their complaint, is that short skirts exposing women's legs cause men to rape women. Therefore, the skirt designer, retailers, and manufacturers must be held accountable.

"We know now that short skirts cause rape. Well, not directly, but these skirts make it easier for rapists. We need to hold these dressmakers accountable," said one city councilwoman.

Mohammad Bin Ahmed, a prominent advocate of Shariah law, agreed. "These short skirts entice men. Now, we in the corrupt United States we must forgive the women, but there is no forgiveness for the companies that sell these things."

The lawsuit was joined by several personal injury attorneys with prominent billboards in the Texas' capitol metro area. They could not be reached for comment and have not submitted briefs, but they do expect to receive a substantial settlement.

But contrary viewpoints exist. Many self-defense instructors and rape survivors have said "Get a gun and shoot the bastards. Wear what you want. You aren't responsible for someone else's criminal acts." Shrill anti-gun activists said "No one deserves to die over rape," and then promptly blocked us.
