I tend to disagree.  I know several rape victims who were assaulted as kids.  There is a whole psychological aspect to this that everyone is just ignoring.  Incest is EVEN worse for these young kids and adults.  Time can not be a protection for someone committing rape in my opinion. 

Woah read what I said, I didn't say anyone should be protected. I said as time goes by, it becomes harder and harder to prove. How do you physically prove that someone raped someone 20 years ago without witness'?

There you go.  And to anyone out there reading, if you rape someone just make sure they are too scared to come forward for years and you are scott free... its gonna be harder to prove so you are in the clear... I suggest you target kids as they are the likest to keep quiet.  I read what you said.   If you are too scared to come forward you need to shut your mouth forever.  I get your logic.  I get what it is intended to do.

Yeah no.  I am saying we need to stand up for the victims and make it easier for them to come forward to discourage this behavior period. 

You are right it is harder to prove but ask yourself how many people are really gonna lie about something like this? So many people are acting like the few cases of lying overshadows the actual rape victims and I'm not to be one of you guys on that point.  It is minuscule in the grand scheme of things. 

I will never be soft on people who want to make it harder for rape victims to come forward as adults or whatever.  Above you stated that the court system is about convincing.  Unfortunately without being able to read minds, we can't tell we can only evaluate the situation on what we have in accordance with established law.  Yes it is harder to prove as time gets on but they still have the right to come forward. When you assault someone in that way, you don't get to play the clock out.   You can really affect someone in a way that produces lasting damage.  Not gonna let folks walk away from that.
