While these people are struggling for their high-powered, take a look on the world's highest rape rate which is America. Look at the shocking rate. Can you imagine those kids are actually encountering the danger of being mollest and seduce every single day?
Local child protective service agencies identified 126,000 children who were victims of either substantiated or indicated sexual abuse; of these, 75% were girls. Nearly 30% of child victims were between the ages of 4 and 7.
- Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families, Child Maltreatment, 1995.
When a six-year-old girl is raped over a four year period by a 34-year old man, and that man gets all but 60 days of his prison sentence suspended, there is no justice system.
Now yesterday, Vermont Judge Patricia Zimmerman sentenced a guy who cursed at her, Ralph Page, to 60 days in jail. So here's Vermont justice. Curse at a judge, two months. Rape a six-year-old, two months.( What is the value a human's life then? Ridiculous )
This is how insane things are now in Vermont, America. This newspaper believes long prison terms for child rapists accomplish nothing. Somehow I thought protecting kids by keeping vicious child predators locked up is the only way to keep these villiains from abducting another victims again. Some of the mollesters are sentenced to rehab, and most of them still walking freely on the US street.
Oprah is urging the americans to pay more concern by repeating "This is our country, Americans."
I am not an American, somehow this issue is very serious. Its about the kids being raped, being tortured. Its about the kids future. How these happenings could affect them mentally in the long run.
Like Shawn Hornbeck's case, people start to question why is this kids never escaped when he got the chances? Many perspectives. In my view, these kids would surely beaten up or mollested more whenever they tried to find way to escape. To save their own lives, they need to obey. In the mean time. Well im not in their shoes and am not eligible enough to make any judgement. As what Oprah had said :
See? Isnt our country's leaders fightings with each other is truly meaningless compared to this scenario which is happening now?
Para leaders, rather than having slogan of "Rakyat Diutamakan", do something but not demogogue-ing in front of people. See those kids? They need help. We too. We dont wanna live in a country with negative political image.
ANTI CHILD ABUSE
