Quote: Thanks Redhen, I just couldn't put it into words right. Anger and rage are healing forces of their own. All people are different. Some put it behind them. Some use it to strengthen them. Some use it to drive them. If you think that failure to forgive or to 'be at peace' with it...

Quote: Actually, you don't. I will never forgive my attackers, what they did was unforgivable. But that doesn't mean they keep me from being at peace with myself or that I have to waste any portion of my day hating or being angry at them or allow them any control over my thoughts and...

Quote: Far more hold their silence due to the blame the victim attitude that comes out in rape. With the pressure women and especially children get to not throw their attackers (most often known to them) in prison, imagine how much more pressure they'd get if Strange Uncle Joe would instead...

Quote: Please don't mistakenly assume, like Boyd has done, that my stance is in any way compassion for the rapist. My stance is purely for the protection of the victims. You have a life. I would not see that taken from you because a rapist had nothing to lose by silencing his victim...

Quote: I thought I was clear that I felt rape should be an actual life sentence. Not what a current supposed life sentence is, an actual lock them up and melt down the key life sentence.

Quote: This involves a lot of wishful thinking on your part. You are assuming only one will die and the five will remain unraped. More likely, all five will be killed. And probably more, since it's a lot harder to convict without witness ID and testimony. You are also misreading me when I...

Quote: For this to happen, it will first be necessary for mankind to outgrow the attitude that a woman wearing a short skirt, or out in public unaccompanied, or in a bar, etc... is somehow 'asking for it'. To be quite frank, after how I was treated by the cops and some of my neighbors and...

Quote: It's interesting to note that countries with brutal punishments for rapists often have higher incidences of rape than this country. A simple question for you, Boyd. If the perp wears a condom and kills his victim, meaning no witnesses, how much harder do you think it's going to be to...

Quote: He'd kill them too because he had nothing to lose by killing them? You are assuming you'll catch him with the first victim. I put a screwdriver in the side of the guy that attacked me and he still managed to go on to rape 3 more women before the cops actually managed to catch him.

Quote: In a 25 year span, the violent sexual predator recidivism rate is 53-58% per every study and psychology text I have ever read. I have never seen any actual study that put it at a 90% rate. I think I may know where the disconnect is. There are two 'recidivism' rates. A molester...

Quote: Unfortunately, it's been demonstrated that if they have nothing to gain by letting their victim live, they won't risk the identification. And, let's face it... Compared to what happens in prison to child molesters, death would be the easy way out.

Quote: Who is suggesting he gets off? I'm a rape and a molestation victim. I think we need to bring back flogging in the public square for these bastards in addition to their jail sentence. I'm happy to be on the firing squad for the death penalty. It's a crime heinous enough that we...

Quote: The problem is a lot of folks don't understand the 'class' system, and some registries don't even include it. But, even then, the recidivism rate isn't close to 100%, it's closer to 50%. The numbers are worrisome enough that they don't need to be exaggerated.

Quote: This statement is unfortunately far from accurate. http://www.csom.org/pubs/recidsexof.html Fortunately for them, the do not live near me. That site was cool, but the study is 12 years old. What I've learned in college 4-5 years ago is dated, but it was in the high 90's percentage...
