criticallyhonest ­ November 19, 2014 at 12:51 Comments Policy Report comment Kgoete: You are right and wrong. They do not get reported as much. The reason is that they do not happen as much. I can speak only for the places I have lived, the UK and Germany. As for Afghanistan and Siberia who knows? How to get a Victoria’s Secret Angel body Believe me when I tell you that an incident such as this one would create a national outrage in this summer! the UK. The papers would be full of it for days. The public would be shouting for justice and punishment. Why, because they would be outraged at the idea that a person entrusted with public safety could do such a thing. I suspect that you are suffering from noise overload to the point where this type of incident has become your benchmark for a normal society. 66 1

criticallyhonest ­ November 19, 2014 at 14:02 Comments Policy Report comment Rape is not about sex, it is about power and domination. Rapist have low self­esteem and need to use force in order to believe that they meet the image requirements to be accepted by their peers. Add drugs and alcohol and you can expect anything, but especially you can not expect decent civilised behaviour. Now ask why, and don't dare blame anyone or anything else. It is ALL to do with personal choices and nothing to do with anybody else. But a more important question is why are such people not made to be total outcasts from society? 8 0
