In Japan, that wonderful country with zero gun deaths, there is no such thing as due process of law. TIPS will make it that way here, too.
This is absolutely sick - people who are ruining people's WHOLE LIVES getting away with their crimes, either because of a lack of evidence or because od using "I was tipsy" as a ridiculous excuse.
Here's some reasons why it is so bad:
IT CAUSES (in virtually all, if not ALL cases)
Immense fright
Immense suffering
A horrible feeling of helplessness
A violation
Something being forced upon you that you don't want to happen
AFTER THE SEXUAL ASSAULT:
The above feelings remain
Flashbacks (extremely disturbing visual images of the event playing over in your mind, often so real that it feels as if the sexual assault is happening again)
Nightmares
Difficulty maintaining a relationship
Fear of even consensual sexual activity
Consensual sexual activity causing fear and flashbacks
Suicidal thoughts (and in too many cases, suicidal actions) because the pain and suffering is too large to bear, even for a person frightened of death, even for a person who considers suicide to be wrong
MONTHS AFTER THE SEXUAL ASSAULT, EVEN YEARS AFTER:
All of the above
As evidenced by the woman who has expressed her feeling of a need to take a shower every time she gets off the train.
AND IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ANY OF THIS, ask any organisation that helps, or tries to help, victims of sexual assault, such as http://www.safehaven-uk.org
