"A spokeswoman for Safe Nest, a woman's shelter, said ... the rock band should apologize and stop using the image because it promotes acceptance of violence against women."

What kind of half-wit looks at a painting of a (possible) rapist about to get torn to shreds and sees an acceptance of violence against women?

Despite Safe Nest's admission on their home page that anyone, regardless of gender, can be the victim of DV, their site has this page...

...but no female equivalent. Apparently DV against men and lesbians isn't anything to get too worked up about. Funny how little digging you need to do to find out what is really driving these people.

I cannot tell you how much it bothers me that feminists get all up in arms over anything remotely related to rape, but ignore EVERYTHING else. Maybe it's just me, but bands have been posting ads of men tortured/beaten/killed all over the place and I've NEVER heard a feminist or some "women's shelter" give a shit. Hard rock bands, in general, are known for having 'shocking' material on their album covers/ads/etc but these people only give a shit when 'rape' or any 'violence against women' is present. If these feminist-apologists on here only opened their eyes, they'd realize that is an AUTOMATIC priority adjustment of women over men.
