11. I hate sexual predators beyond words

It's never happened to me, but seeing what they do to people is simply horrifying. It's almost worse than murder in a way. At least murder doesn't leave the victim behind to suffer for a lifetime. Sexual assault destroys any hint of innocence the victim has, and leaves them with lifelong mental problems/hangups/other social difficulties.

The worst and sickest part of all is how those who are abused are then more likely to become abusers themselves. Sex crimes create a whole trickle down effect of horror throughout our society. Personally I think we need to be much more aware, and much harsher in the punishment of such crimes.
