"It's the victim's fault, she was wearing provocative clothing!"
Bullies have no end of rationalizations for their behavior. "He looked at me funny!" "She didn't step out of my way!" "He didn't genuflect sincerely enough!" and on and on and on.
I'm not interested.
You ought to be, though. This is just one more example of how you've positioned yourself as the effect to everybody else's cause, just a helpless leaf blown this way and that by the irresistable force of other people's behavior and beliefs and words. Chart your own course, RL, work on the impulse control. You'll be happier, I promise. As will everyone around you.
