"I'm not from around here" as a criminal defense?

What the hell? Culture shock as a criminal defense? Any bets as to when the defense "She was asking for it" is openly submitted in court?

And should he have gotten the book thrown at him for the, I don't know how the Aussies may label a sexual assault on a 13 year old, but I call it child molestation....Read the original here.

Muslim Man Gets Sexual Assault Sentence Reduced Because Of 'Culture Shock'

The old argument that "she was asking for it" has resurfaced in multicultural guise. Where are all the feminists? This shocking report from Melbourne, Australia tells the tale of a Libyan student recently arrived in Australia as a scholarship student, who sexually attacked 6 women, and a 13 year old girl a month after arriving in Australia.

Creeping dhimmitude, indeed.
