Victim blaming serves no positive. The law is set up to look at the actions of the perpetrator - period. There is a legal consequence for criminal behavior. I think the counselor has missed the part about how the victims of crimes have already suffered a "consequence" regardless of any behavior this book might judge as "wrong". I recognize that I would need to read the book to form a unbiased opinion. But, based upon the overall concept, I would be unwilling to support the book with a purchase. Perhaps if I steal one, it is really the author's fault for triggering this criminal instinct in me???
