According to the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board, if you drink too much, you may be raped, and it's no one's fault but your own. Why? Because if you hadn't been intoxicated, you may have been better able to fend off your attacker.
One particular ad even shows a pair of female legs with the pants around the ankles with corresponding text that reads: “She didn’t want to do it, but she couldn’t say no.” Not only is the fault taken off of the offender who would commit such an act, but even the girl's friends are blamed asking, "What if you didn’t watch out for your friends during a night of drinking?”
Under no circumstance is rape ever the victim's fault. Please help us tell the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board to find another method for deterring teen drinking; tell them that blaming the victim is not the solution.
