I just finished an article talking about how bad the rape situation in Congo and i really sympathize with the women there.

I don't understand why such perverted peopleexist. Don't they have wives or daughters? This just reminded me of a feature article i wrote for one of my first assignments. I was talking about child rapes after being inspired by ing ing that came back from Africa for a mission trip. She got to interact with many children in the orphanage there and sad to say, many of the young children were raped, and by their own relatives. Worse of all, they don't only get raped once by one person but ganged rape and over a period of time. Can you imagine being raped by your dad, then your uncle then some random person from somewhere? Like i don't understand why they can actually bring themselves to rape someone that is supposed to be kin to them. It's just so bloody perverted.

When i was doing research for my feature article, i also found out that the men rape young children because-especially virgins, because they are pure and can take away their disease such as Aids. How stupid can they get.

When i read this sentence in the article, "Dr Mukwege said his oldest patient was 75, his youngest three", i felt the tears forming in my eyes. How can you bring yourself to rape a child that is only 3 years old??That bloody asshole that did that seriously deserves to die. When i read this, mei mei(my 5 year old niece) just came into my mind. A child so young, and so lovable, yet they can do such a cruel act to her.

Another thing is that, i think these men are beasts, savage beasts. "Many have been so sadistically attacked that their reproductive and digestive systems are beyond repair". How do you rape someone till you can destroy their reproductive and digestive system? I really don't want to think what those men actually did to the poor women.

Dear Lord, please help to control the rape situation in Congo. Do not let the evil get their way and may you protect the women and children there and keep them sane. Grant the political leaders wisdom that they may know how to reinfore the law there, please take care of your people. Amen.
