U.S. to Expand Its Definition of Rape in Statistics – January 7, 2012
http://patriotupdate.com/16884/u-s-to-expand-its-definition-of-rape-in-statisticsThe federal government is changing its longstanding definition of “forcible rape” in compiling national crime statistics to include male victims. The new definition has been in the works for several months and was formally announced by the Obama administration on Friday.
Obviously, when you expand the definition of the crime, the incidence of that crime will be higher. But the pre and post definition change numbers are apples and oranges.
Nevertheless, I fully expect to hear Democrats touting the totally expectable increase in rapes as evidence that Republicans are evil.
Heck. Joe Biden doesn’t even bother citing genuine statistics now!
In October 2011, Obama’s vice president stated repeatedly that rapes would increase if the GOP did not pass Obama’s jobs bill.
His rationale was that the jobs bill included money to help local governments avoid layoffs of police officers and he cited an alleged skyrocketing of rapes in Flint, Michigan, after its police force was cut dramatically.
In this video, “Joe Biden Stands By Rape Reference to GOP”, he gets real snarky with a reporter and states emphatically that the facts back him up.
Teensy weensy problem, Joe-Bob.
