Rapes

The number of rapes in the United States has decreased more than 85% since the 70's. Which is good. They say there is very good improvment and the crime has been receding from the American way of life. That still doesn't make the few that there are less punishable it makes it just as a serious as it always was.

The only problem with rape is that it is very underreported. But what do people expect? Women who get raped tend to be sheltered and nervous after the fact. They are nervous and just want to forget it. Sometimes they are even embarrassed and worry that it might their fault. Sometimes they worry that their families will hate them for the terrible thing that happened to them. Most if dont get murdered as well just run home and take a shower. They feel so dirty it doesn't go away no matter what. But women need to know that going to the police is the right thing to do. They can catch the jerk that did it to them.
