In reply to the discussion: Levin dropping key provision from military rape bill [View all]BainsBane
(53,029 posts)20. It's a good way to maintain a hospitable environment for rapists nt.
and that's it. The situation is absurd. There is no rational reason for it other than a desire to allow rapists to operate without restraint. Rape is at incredibly high levels in the military. The entire system is a sham designed to protect rapists. It's disgusting and a violation of human rights.
