Rape at my school

One of my best friends was raped and molested by two different guys a few years back, and I can't think of anything that has pissed me off more. If I knew who the guy was I would have hunted him down done some unpleasant things with a staple gun. For some reason it enrages me more than a murder- in some ways rapes are worse cause they often destroy lives. Castrate and execute the bastards.

Agreed,

I was talking to a person visiting my school who used to go to school really close by and she knew several girls who were raped, told her, but didn't tell the authorities. It's frightening how common this is especially on college campuses.

:(

Yeah, I've heard the same kind of stories. But then I recall what the authorities are like when it comes to sexual assault sometimes. There was a high-profile lawsuit in Toronto where a victim sued the police for not warning neighbourhood women. Instead the police kept their info to themselves in order to use them women as "bait" to catch the predator. Unbelievable, but it happened.
