    Again, I think you're an intelligent enough person. However, I don't think you are stating what I'm getting at. The past is not mitigating the future when there is a problem now. Again, how is telling a pregnant woman who needs help now for example, "don't get pregnant" It's basically hand washing. I'm asking you again what steps now can you think of instead of clamoring to the that excuse that we can do to help victims now. We just ignore it and cling to a past excuse?

    Let's put this in another way using this comparison on how this dialog with you at its current state is frustrating.

    Two people are renting a place, turns out one of them is a bit short on rent.

    Person A: I'm going to come up a little short on rent this month.

    Person B: What? Why didn't you save enough to make sure this didn't happen.

    Person A: I know, but right now can you help me come up with ideas on what I can do for this month

    Person B: Well you should save enough money to make sure it doesn't happen.

    Person A: Well, what is it that we can do now to make sure rent is paid off now?

    Person B: Well to mitigate this problem you should have saved enough money to make sure this doesn't happen again.

    Person A: Yeah okay, but again what can we do about paying rent now?

    Person B: Why is it wrong for me to tell you that you should have saved money so you could have paid off rent this month.

    Person A: Look, I'm asking what can we do about NOW.
