      This is the problem with seeing blame in terms of groups defined by immutable characteristics. The responsibility for violent assault lies with violent criminals and not with men. The vast majority of men who do not commit violent assault have no responsibility for it.https://twitter.com/simple81/status/1050226311384453120 …

      89% of the perpetrators of violent assault are Male. So saying they're more likely to be violently assaulted does not negate their responsibility. They obviously need to be better to eachother as well! (Not all men obviously!)

      Here lets remove people and give the same message! Not all cups are purple. But all purple cups are broken. Can we do something about the broken cups please? This is what is being said! But...men are the cups and the purple cups assault people!

      Nobody is suggesting that we don't do something about purple cups.

      What we are suggesting is that perhaps we don't throw all cups in the trash just because some are purple.

      Exactly! But tge message is still going out to.the cups! All cups because we cant tell if they're purple right away (not the best example now I see) but the purple cups are the ones who should take note!

      Absolutely not prejudiced at all. Send the message out to all Muslims that it's wrong to commit violent jihad because you can't tell if they;re terrorists straight away but they're the ones who should take note. If you don't see this very basic principle, I can't help you.

      It isnt 89% of muslims committing all the terrorism. This is not apples to apples. If you don't see that basic principle, I cant help YOU!

      I don't see that it suddenly becomes OK to hold a whole groups responsible for criminal behaviour of a tiny minority, no. Muslims commit 100% of Jihad.

          Male violence is not a tiny minority of men. In the UK there were 1.4 million hate crimes in the home. Men celebrate violence against women as sexually entertaining, 2 in 3 girls suffer hate speech based on their sex, 1 in 3 sexual assault. This is not a tiny minority.
