this is a fairly popular analogy but i thought i would share it again with you.
its especially funny because that one anon was using the analogy to make the oppposite point, but seriously, no billionaire walks around with loads of money in a suitcase.
I think this is the perfect analogy.
And even if a billionaire did walk around with billions in a suitcase ze still wouldn’t be responsible for someone stealing it all. The responsibility for that crime lies solely with the thief.

An excellent point that I completely forgot about. Many thanks, feedthewriter for pointing that out!
I’m still not huge on rape being equated with property theft instead of physical assault, but otherwise this is good.
