The second reason for my surprise is the assertion that legislators, law enforcement and people in general are concerned about the sexual assault of women. In forensic labs across the nation, there are many rape kits that never get turned in or tested. In colleges across America, rapists are allowed to take class, play sports, hold scholarships and graduate while their victims are psychologically and often academically destroyed. The current statistic in the U.S. is 1 in 3 women will be sexually assaulted during their lifetime. It is approximated that 70 percent of sexual assaults go unreported because victims don't want to go through the publicizing of the worst thing to ever happen to them. This is underlined by the knowledge that their rapists, if convicted, will likely spend very little time in jail. That being said, are we expected to believe that a concern for preventing the sexual assault of women is at the forefront of political decision-making? If so, how impeccably convenient!
