In response to the viral rape video out of South Africa, it seems quite clear to me that the only way to stop the savage brutality of women once and for all is to make rape a crime punishable by death around the world. Life in prison isn’t harsh enough but a mandatory death sentence might make men think twice before partaking in such callous behavior. The reason the same does not necessarily hold true in cases of murder, is because murder is often a crime of passion. Rape is a crime of dominance and power perpetrated by cowards.
