So says the British National Party's London leader, Nick Eriksen.
  • how can rape NOT involve violence?

    Ok, looking past the source of this quote being from the BNP...

    Maybe this is a really naive question, but how can a rape not be violent?

    Unless a women is drugged, or incredibly afraid of violence (most likely because it has occured in the past), how can a "non-violent" rape occur?

    If someone says "no" and resists an assualt (of any nature), presisting in physically forcing someone to do something is by definition violent.

    So yeah. I can't really understand how this nut-jobs comments even make sense (in OR out of context).

    Perhaps he SHOULD spend some time in a hardcore British jail, so he can experience first-hand the "non-violent" nature of rape.
