That's just the first thing I noticed. It seems like she's blaming rape on racial oppression and turning a sick individual's actions into a social cause, while simultaneously relieving him of moral responsibilities.
But it's not like it isn't true.

I'm sure she's capable of distinguishing one man's motivation from that of a ethnic group but she chose to write about it from a social perspective. Credit her for not just simply making it a gender issue.

It's funny if you google the headline you get lead here:
Professional Do-Gooder Raped (Lack Of Insight Astonishing). [Archive] - Conservative Underground
