Donald Trump and Republican supporters of SCOTUS nominee Brett Kavanaugh have engaged in victim blaming Kavanaugh’s accuser. They insist that if Kavanaugh really did something wrong, then his accuser would have immediately come forward to report the crime.

#WhyIDidntReport is a hashtag where survivors of rape, sexual assault and molestation are sharing their reasons why they didn’t report their assaults.

This happens far too much, and it is heartbreaking.

I love Roy Mustang as much as the next person, but every version of FMA hinges on him looking at a traumatized eleven year old amputee who just committed a class A felony and thinking ‘Let’s enlist him into the military immediately’ 

to be fair

  • he initially thought that Ed and Al were in thier 30s based on bad intel
  • he was gonna probably just report back and tell intel off for wasting his time if Ed and Al hadn’t. Done That.
  • seriously, Edward and Al managed to pull off one of THE GREATEST alchemical taboos with a shockingly low amount of consequences
  • Ed lost an arm and leg while Al lost his whole body, and Ed bonded the soul to a suit of armor with basically NOTHING
  • Roy’s options were essentially either put Ed in jail, put him into a state orphanage, or bring him into the organization where he can keep an eye on him and possibly get him the resources to fix the massive fuckup that happened (and prevent Ed from becoming a Shou Tucker or Kimblee style monster hopefully)

Basically Roy took one look at these kids and said “I’m your dad now,”
