→The Unconsidered Scenario
::::: It would be perfectly simple to decrease drastically the number of rapes (and thus eliminate almost completely the need for vaccinations, assuming abstinence is practised) if some of the measures advocated on this site were implemented nationwide. For example, if gun control were relaxed and more people carried firearms, I daresay your average rapist would feel less confident about his ability to successfully overpower his victim.

::::::That might help if life were simple and ideal, but in reality many rape victims are minors, and the source above mentions over 400,000 cases of prison rape annually. Arming the first group is not a good idea, and the second group goes without saying. --[[User:DinsdaleP|DinsdaleP]] 15:10, 14 January 2009 (EST)

:::::::But as ASchlafly pointed out, your statistics are one-sided and as such untrustworthy. Can you trust a prisoners word? I have no doubt that prisoners routinely accuse each other of rape either as a sick joke or merely to get back at someone they dislike. As for the 'fact' that many rape victims are minors, are you suggesting that this potentially dangerous vaccine be given to seven year olds? Perhaps five year olds? Besides, as the number of rapes decrease due to the increased defensive capabilities of potential victims,the police will have more resources to investigate and capture the fewer rapists. And as such, the number of rapists, either guessing that the jig is up or being arrested after a successful investigation, will decrease, and thus the number of rapes will decrease too. It is a classic example of positive feedback. [[User:ETrundel|ETrundel]] 15:26, 14 January 2009 (EST)
