Sexual Assault

Sexual Assault/Rape is a major case that should never go without a punishment.

Dear President,

 I know there are a lot of problems that need to be fixed but sexual assault is one of the big issues. In my opinion, your main goals should be to try stopping sexual assault/rape. It is nowhere near okay to touch a females genitals and be able to get away with it unpunished or with a minor punishment. Women should not be touched sexually without their consent, a random man should never touch a woman and especially not a minor. Touching a minor should result in a worse punishment since they are young and don't need to live their life knowing they have been raped or touched.

This case should be taken seriously and consequences should be severe so that they learn their lesson. Punishments should be worse if it is for a little girl, raping a little girl is just wrong and their punishment should be major. Touching a woman in general is something that should never go unpunished. The woman should report it to the police and the man should be taken to court. Never should a rape case go unpunished, they deserve at least 25 years in jail. 

Men should not touch woman without consent because a woman should not feel uncomfortable near men for the reason being fear of sexual assault. It does not matter who you are or how much money you have, women should be respected and you can't just touch them even if you are their father, brother, uncle, etc... Money does not make you different from others, being rich doesn't mean you can do whatever you want and touch whoever you want. If a poor person gets punished for touching a girl, then a rich person should receive the same punishment. 

Rape is not okay, if the woman gives no consent then it is not okay. There is a difference between sex and rape, rape should never go without a punishment no matter what. Rapists should learn their lesson so they don't just touch girls again once they get out of jail. You should make it so that they are too scared to ever touch a girl again. Sexual assault is a major issue that many hope will soon be resolved. This article about sexual assault lists facts and proves that it's wrong which backs up my case, for more information you can click this link and read all about this case http://www.emedicinehealth.com/sexual_assault/article_em.htm.

No one wants to hear from their daughter that they have been sexually touched no matter who did it. No mother wants their little girl to get pregnant at such an early age, it is too much work with school and all that goes on in their lives. No little girl should go through the pain of labor without it being their choice. Even though it is wrong for them to go through it at a young age even if they decided to do it, it is even worse if they didn't want it to happen. Pregnancy at a young age can ruin a life, that is why many avoid it. However, if it happens without consent, it makes things worse because they probably never expected this to happen and now know that life is ruined.

As I conclude this letter I hope that soon their will be a difference. You are really the only one who is able to stop this and make America a better place. Just because this is a free country doesn't mean that you are free to touch whoever and do whatever you please. As I said before, this is a major issue that should never happen and if it does, the person should be punished no matter what. 

Sincerely,

Max
