I don't know, I've never been raped. But my best mate has. Rights should be equal. Maybe having them withdrawn as a punishment would work, like the right to vote. Hang on, we already do that.
It's a serious allegation, a person sent down for rape is never treated nicely. They have to be guilty.
As for victims being pushed to the side, they are given anonymity by the courts, that's why they are so on the side-lines.
No, they dont just take away your vote for a rape charge! For gods sake.
So your admiting your wrong then?
Here's an example of what happens to rapists in prison, and also kiddy molesters. Someone walks toward them carrying a jug of water, the water is boiling, is gets thrown on the rapist, water on it's own though, would quickly cool down and drop off. This water is laced with sugar, and it sticks, and it burns.
If the rapist complains he'll get the shit kicked out of him every night for the next week until he learns to keep quiet. Prison, is not a nice place.
That would make a nice change...
Yes, I understand that you are admiting to ignoring the facts.
I find you quite an offencive person.
Maybe that's why we are all so FED UP of you!
I agree with bongbudda
I certainly havent said crime is low, I have said that it has gone down significantly since Labour has come into power, which is has.
And, why am I offencive? I'm curious to know.
How was I supposed to take this? I took it as you saying you thought I was offencive, I was wondering how?
maybe he thinks you are offensive because you point him out to be wrong.
Crime is lower, but not low.
I am inclined to believe more people at reporting the crimes because of improvements in proceedure.
This is certainly true with male rapes.
Are male rapes and female rapes separated in the statistics?
I believe they are for the police but not for the general public.
That's probably why the reporting has gone up then, women are probably treated better as well.
Reasons to believe otherwise please?
It is believed to be the case with domestic violence, why not rape?
There certainly is, and its an ugly subject to talk about because there are ingraved feelings. Personally I think any sex you dont KNOW is consentual is rape, this clearly including drunken mistake type sex.
However, there have been more than a few cases of women using rape allegations against men and there does need to be some sort of protection against that.
Yeah, i guess you're right, but things are changing. I have to believe that they do or I'd go loopy
It is getting better but its still not as good as it could be.
