YES...

Hey man, I've been drunk thousand times and never raped anyone...

Of course.

Being drunk is never an acceptable defense in any criminal case. Whether it be drinking and driving, murder, rape, or any other crime you can think of.

It may be used as an excuse, but it is certainly no defense.

Yes.

If a guy could manage to rape a girl while he was drunk, chances are he wasn't all that drunk in the first place. Yes he is responsible.

Yes.

Yes. Getting drunk is a choice, so they can't claim that they didn't know what they were doing.

of course, you are always accountable for your own actions.

Yes. Same as it would be if it were vehicular homicide, if he were driving drunk.

I don't answer stupid questions, in fact have you even read your own question? Are you that thick in the head you cannot distinguish rape? Here's your answer, yes.

It is rape.

However, if your question was:
"If someone rapes a girl when SHE is drunk, is SHE responsible?" then I could answer you no.

Hope I helped.

No one else did the raping but himself...i do say hes the only one who could be responsible for that one, bub.

He is responsible for both abusing alcohol and abusing of the other person. So he has to answer for those crimes.


Devil Dawg
Absolutely! The supreme court ruled that even though someone is drunk and out of "state of mind" they are still responsible for their actions and they cannot plead temporary insanity in court either.


Scouse
Yes for getting drunk and the consequences of doing so. I take the view that drunkenness is generally no excuse for anything.
I use the word generally with many reservations
