“Rape is Like Being Force-Fed Chocolate Cake” Blogs BNP Official

Not only can blogging wage war on your health, but public figures are getting in trouble for their online opinions. The BNP’s Nick Eriksen learnt this the hard way last week, after he was sacked as the party’s London Assembly candidate for publishing jaw-droppingly obtuse views on rape on his silly blog. The post has since been removed, but luckily journalists were quick to spot the following:

“Rape is simply sex (I am talking about ‘husband-rape’ here)… Women enjoy sex, so rape cannot be such a terrible physical ordeal…To suggest that rape, when conducted without violence, is a serious crime is like suggesting force-feeding a woman chocolate cake is a heinous offence.”

On August 24, 2005, Mr Eriksen wrote on the blog: ‘I’ve never understood why so many men have allowed themselves to be brainwashed by the feminazi myth machine into believing that rape is such a serious crime…

Yeah. Whoa.

Almost 80% of rapes are “acquaintance rapes,” or sexual acts forced upon women by someone they know. Partner/husband rapes are the most common, and according to a 2000 British Crime Survey, strangers were responsible for a mere 8% of the rape victims surveyed. So no, Eriksen, rape is not exactly, nearly, or approximately anything remotely like eating cake, and whoever the perpetrator is, rape is by definition violent, and is never “simply” sex, whether or not it is instigated by a husband.

 Now this is what Robin has to say about this insanity.

So, ok.  Here’s my take on this.  Exactly what do I need to do to be elected as an official in any country in the “civilized” world, these days?  I mean, you can have made a complete wreck of your life, and as long as you “get in front of it”. No-one will judge you, as a matter of fact; you can write a really great book and make a shitload of money!! 

 I mean, I know I’ve got skeletons in my closet,( at least they sure do keep making a racket in there, I wish they would quiet down, I throw them a bone once in a while, gotta keep ‘em company), but come on, getting raped is likened to getting chocolate shoved down your throat??  Maybe somewhere out there I can begin to campaign for the crackdown of the super-stupid remarks made by our lovely elected officials. 

I’m gonna advocate having chocolate shoved somewhere I believe he will most enjoy it, in my humble opinion.  And that’s just for starters.. how’s about having the hookers and other such acquaintances  have a little forum of their own, no holds barred?  It won’t hurt the credibility of the afore-mentioned official, gives them more street credit!  All will be appeased, and applauded, look at little miss Amy Winehouse, nice voice, scary as hell.  However, we love and adulate her, ‘cuz she was a very naughty girl.  Yaayy!! 

 There are no right or wrongs, here folks.  Just good old fashioned let’s just spit in everybody’s face and call it a day, and oh, by the way, can this Brit get re-elected?  You bet he can.  We’ll just say it was taken out of context.  Yeah, and then do a stint in a sex-appreciation rehab…I think there is one out there named “Do me with DARK Chocolate, dummy”.  He’ll come out a much better person, I guarantee it.
