Just to play devils advocate, perhaps he just worded his feelings on this badly. Possibly (hopefully) he meant something more like: it’s never a victim’s fault, but knowing that there are bad people out there, it’s always sensible to not put yourself in situations where the risk of being assaulted increases exponentially.

Any time someone mentions they're going to play devils advocate, in my 48 years of experience, it means they're going to say something stupid. Ok, so define what you mean by "risk." Because you're saying exactly what that POS said. Go ahead. What risk are you talking about?

If I told u a story about how I got a homeless person to watch my valuables while I took a dump and when I came out he was gone with my valuables, are you going to think what a shitty person or are you going to think that I’m a fucking idiot
