California Green Party Promotes "Free Slaps" For 'Straight White Men'

Story here. Excerpt:

'The California Green Party is attracting controversy after posting an image on its official Instagram page which promotes “free slaps” to be metered out to ‘straight white men’.

The photo shows two women sat behind a table which is covered with a banner that reads “Finally! Free Slaps For Cisgendered Straight-identified White Men.” The image is supposedly designed to draw attention to ‘rape culture’, a perennial obsession for feminists and liberals that has been vehemently debunked.
...
The post attracted numerous irate comments, including from one woman who remarked, “Why is it just cis white straight males??? How is that NOT offensive. Are they the only ones (raping). I’m a rape survivor and I hate this.”

“My rapist(s) weren’t just white straight cis males,” she added. “The person who molested me as a child was a woman, the guy who raped me when I was 19 was black.”

“I thought this only existed on tumblr?” commented another individual.”I fully support the Green Party but someone needs to bitch slap these people.”'

...and then, I will respond. We'll see who's standing at the end. If they think it's open season on people like me, they are in for a rude awakening.

I know 5 people, in my life that were raped. (Thankfully, I am not one of them).
2 are female 3 are male.

The two females:
1 was raped by a white man, at age 19, the 2nd by a female counselor (I don't know her race) in middle school, when she was 13.

The three males:
1 was raped by his step mother at age 11. The 2nd was raped by a female (black) teacher, although I don't recall what his age was at the time, and the 3rd was raped by a (white) female babysitter when he was 8.

So... Yea. let's just give rapists that are non straight white men, a pass. (sarcasm, of course)
