The police said: "But to prevent being sexually assaulted, avoid dressing like sluts" and people heard "Women who dress like sluts have no right to be left alone and not be raped."

What the police said is not a moral argument. It's a plain fact, more or less. You don't want to walk into a biker bar and start acting provocatively. You don't want to walk under a bus even if you did use a crosswalk. And you don't want to dress like a slut, get drunk, and walk home through a quiet park late in the evening and not bother to think about your safety.

In all these cases you might very well be right but that doesn't mean you won't get parts of your body reconfigured in a number of ways. Not everybody else plays by the same rules and that's the actuality, even if it is in conflict with our moral rules such as "Don't hit people and don't rape people, but if you're assaulted you can hit someone a bit for self-defense".
