Being INTOXICATED is NOT a legal defense for DRUNK DRIVING, ASSAULT, INJURING or KILLING SOMEONE WHILE DRUNK DRIVING or MURDER…if you are drunk when you do any of these things, ALCOHOL IS NOT a “mitigating factor’. You will still be seen as LEGALLY RESPONSIBLE for your ACTIONS. So, WHY is being drunk touted as an EXCUSE or “defense” for RAPE? Because too many men still feel ENTITLED to have sex with women “by any means” — including her being UNCONSCIOUS.
