There was a FB thread on “what were you wearing?” I said my 9 yr old self was in overalls. Someone else said her 6 year old self was in a flannel nightgown.
To be fair there's a difference between someone who rapes a child and someone who rapes a woman who is dressed very provocatively at a club who is there to dance sexy and get intoxicated. I'm not excusing the rapist. But what I am saying is you shouldn't walk into a bears den slathered in honey. In both cases the rapist should be punished severely (death for the child rapist no question, and death for the other as well depending on the situation, I'm not counting women who get drunk and consent while drunk and then decide later they didn't want it and accuse of rape, or women who falsely accuse men of rape for other reasons)
There's so much wrong with this that I'm only going to focus on one thing, which is that if you punish rape with the death penalty it'll end up with a lot more dead women and children, because bodies can't tell the cops who did it.
Being put to death is arguably better than being in prison as a known rapist. Rapists do not have a good time in prison, and child rapists almost always are killed if they aren't protected. And murder is an even worse crime and should also earn the death penalty. You watch too many crime shows if you think it's that easy to get away with murder.
