Still awake as of the moment though it is quite midnight now and watching the TV while surfing the net.I'm watching news right now and got shock,felt horrible and sad about the news regarding raped victims.The news said that raped victims now are getting younger and younger.The youngest victim was about three years old (oh God, she still young to experienced that and missed the beautiful things that this world could offer her) and statistics states that there are almost 2 victims of rape every 2 hours.Rapist are people who are in the influence of alcohol or drugs.Sometimes the rapist is related or family of the victims.There are also rapist who are still minor and sometimes a friend or friends of the victim.Raping also occurs sometimes during drinking session, when the victim git drunk there where they do it.Victims gone through a lot of trauma about it and sometimes can't recover that fast.Some of the victims are also killed after the act. It is really alarming now.Why do people have the guts to do it.What if it happens to their love ones.What do they feel,how will they react about it.Are they human to commit such act like this.It is really sad to think that there are lots of people out there who are capable of doing this cruel act.Is it really safe to go outside? I hope those people who commit those act have the conscience to surrender their selves to the authority.And I do hope that those victims and their family get recover and have a normal life after what happen. Let us live of life in this world with peace,love and happiness.Let us not let evil and bad act control our selves that may lead into somethings horrible.

That is reality. I also wonder why people can commit such hideous act. What is more disgusting are those rapist who rape their own children, grand daughter, relatives. They have no shame. The statistic is also quite alarming. I do not know what is painful. Being raped and survived or being raped and die? I do not know how the rape victims cope with this especially for those who were raped and bore a child out of the crime. What will happen to child in countries where abortion is not allowed. Will he/she live a normal life? Such a shame. Experiencing this can ruin one's life, not all can stand up again. I do hope we know what triggers them to act this way so that we can intercept and prevent more cases of being raped.

This is sadly true because the rationale for this (from the rapist perspective) is that the younger they are the less likely they are to fight back or tell anyone. The younger they are, the more vulnerable they are. It happened to me when I was twenty, but mine was considered "Date Rape". I wanted to know why it happened, and I began to do research. The men who do this are sick individuals, and they need to be put in prison.

"Date Rape" is when someone put something in your drink, or you somehow because intoxicated while the person is raping your or trying to rape you. I don't know what you mean by eyeballs?

Such cases exist every where. Almost every day I read rape cases with victims as young as 4 years of age. It is the twisted mentality that drove the rapists to do it. Religion value is too far from them. The surroundings might also contribute to this immoral act committed by those mind-twisted people. There are also cases which made us feel disgusted. A man dug out a newly-burried corpse and ate it up! This world is really getting insane.

It really happened everywhere.Sometimes the one who do it is the one we least expected to do this kind of crime.Immoral act like this should stop and prevent so no one will suffer traumas and pain.

that is very sad news to hear.. i am really lucky thst i have never had to deal with that in any way, never been raped, im sure if i had it would have made a big difference in my life and how i saw men.. i would prob never be able to trust another man again, it is very sad when you have young children involved and it is in there own home and they have no where to run to get away from it, it is happening every day and there is nothing we can do about it but pray.. pray for the inoccent children who are at risk..

That's horrible! Sometimes I did wonder what happen in this society? That these people can do such thing. She's just a child! She's just 3 years old! What do they want from a little girl? People really need to wake up their mind and clear on things that they did.

Seeing it in the news is already heartbreaking what more if you are one of the family who experienced it,maybe I get crazy and feel traumatic about it or even I kill the person who did it if they get caught by the authority.

I am really saddened about the girl who has been murdered and raped. True to what you have said, yes, rape victims are getting younger and also those criminals. We can't deny the fact that this is now what is going on to the world. Other cases would even involve family to family massacre. I couldn't imagine those kind of incident. It is very inhumane.

It is very true. I can't really imagined it. For me I only imagine it if it is only happen in a movie or television show. I hope it will stop. What do you think? Will it ever stop?

Rape as it is, is is a violent crime, when you add in the ages of the victims, it becomes about ten times worse or more to think about it. There are some people who...I don't even know. I cannot even begin to piece together what is going on in their heads. I know it is nothing that is too pleasant to think about. And the thoughts would go to some dark disturbing places of what they might think about when committing such a crime. The reasons are many. And none of them are pleasant to think about I'm sure. And the real twisted thing is that those who do it, don't really think that they will ever get caught. And most it it happens within the household, with no one being the wiser. The same happy smiling family could be rather tormented because it is most times the ones you least expect. And the fact that victims are getting younger does twist and turn the stomach just a little bit.

I can't imagine how someone can rape a child, it's so horrible and sick... those people have no heart. And many of these cases happen in the family... since kids are probably not able to tell anyone what happened to them, I guess they can't even explain it. Children are even more vulnerable as they can't escape from their family
