9. Some do believe that it is "okay" and should be encouraged.
Just look at Elizabeth Smart, Jaa Cee Duggard and others. Just so I don't appear sexist,even though the article was about a 14 yr old girl, what about Shawn Horbeck, Ben Ownby? This is just to name a few.

Rape is not interesting it is deplorable!

You seem to be doing a good job of stuffing your strawman. Let me help you knock it down.

4. And that really sucks, rape is bad. But you should qualify your statement.
Shark attacks seem to be increasing when they become news, but in reality, shark attacks have stayed the same. Everything has a perspective, especially when being reported on.

6. Sorry about that...touchy subject for me.
I have survived two sexual assaults, on from an acquaintance (was going to be my boss) and the other a stranger, in the guise of a good Samaritan. Read the story here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=6864042&mesg_id=6881753">It was implied. I know there are a lot of good men in the world, TrogL (my husband) included.

7. On behalf of men. I apologise for what you have had to endure.
Why some men feel that they can do those things is beyond me. It gives all men a bad name.

8. I agree...yet with in that story was a veryrepectful man.
He had never dealt with someone who had been sexually assaulted yet he was so kind and caring towards me. That was why I had put that in there.

12. I just wonder why we keep letting these perverts back out.
I say one crime against a child should be the absolute limit.
Sexual predators against children should NEVER be turned loose again.
Why people allow this I just can't understand.
I have seen at least eight notices of child molesters and level 3 offenders (whatever that means) being moved into my neighborhood in the last three years alone.
This is a high volume of children neighborhood.
Why are these pedophiles not being moved into the gated communities or the Mayors neighborhood?
Its just wrong to let them live out in society ANYWHERE!
They should be locked away forever.

13. an asshole is an asshole
I doubt that this "man" is a nice guy who treats people with kindness and just does a little raping on the side.

I am quite confidant that everyone who knows him thinks he is an asshole.

Assholes don't care.

20. free association
I read your other post. Of course it is never the victim's fault.

But what happened to teaching children precautions? Never accept a ride from a stranger, unless they're in a marked police car, etc. Never open your door to a stranger.
