Star membership is upcoming for Alan Saldanha. The Green party candidate in Surrey has resigned over an inappropriate comment on Facebook. Saldanha listed his favourite quote on his Facebook page as: "If rape is inevitable, lie back and enjoy it!"
When questioned about the disgusting line, Saldanha came back with an incredibly lame excuse, saying first that the quote had been taken out of context. Stupid moron. There simply is no context in which that offensive line would be even vaguely acceptable, and there is no reason why a man with even half a brain would select that as his fave quote, no matter what the supposed context. Not content with a little stupidity, Saldanha went for broke and said, "Someone had told me that Confucius says, etc.'" What an idiot.
One has to wonder, could the man live up to his favourite quote? If by some strange twist of fate, he were to find himself in his own version of hell, trapped in a "Deliverance" type scene, would he be able to say with the appropriate amount of passive acceptance, "Ah, well", then lie back and enjoy it?

well said! if "deliverance" scenarios were more common towards men, i'm sure we'd hear less cavalier comments like this :)
well in his case, it'd be "bend over and enjoy it"
