Hello all,
As most of you know, i have been on here for quite a while and have always loved giving advice and help whenever i can.The campaign started off very much highlighting a lot of problems in the justice system for rape survivors.And it has been wonderful for survivors of rape everywhere,However the campaign has now swung over to people 'falsly' accusing others in order to get compensation.(although just like it is hard to prove rape, it is also hard to prove being falsly accused of rape)
I feel however that the forum has switched over to this side of things and as a rape survivor myself fighting for other survivors i feel it quite harmful for my own health reading many many posts of people 'crying rape'
This was not what i originally came onto these boards to read, although i do recognise that any campaign will obviously take many new turns.
Those falsly accused of rape is a new topic in itself, and i feel that the boards would be better off for all concerned if the two topics were totally divided,as their are many raw viewpoints on each side of the fence. <_<
As mentioned before i have seen this campaign grow and expand and it is swinging towards those being falsly accused of rape.This is something which needs to be addressed as their are many people writing in about it.And i hope that those falsly accused of rape, and i mean those that are genuinly falsly accused of rape, (not the ones that have raped and then gone to the most obvious line of defence because they are married/have children/partners/business's/family etc) really get somwhere with a campaign like this.So as this is not an area for my comments, i want to wish you all farewell.I do however want any survivor out there who wants help to know that im still around, and my details can be reached through the author and webmaster (who are wonderful people! of this site.
So this is Snoopy signing off for the last time.
Take care all, good luck everyone.I hope that through campaigns like this you all highlight the things that are important to you, and obtain continuos support as you go from strength to strength.
One thing i will say however.
No matter what your view is or which side of the fence you stand on, always always try and see both sides of the coin.And remember sometimes its hard to admit that those that we are rooting for sometimes are capable of doing bad things, sometimes people lie, and sometimes those that we think are lying are telling the truth.We will never know what really happened in any given scenario because we simply were not there.
But at the end of the day we all have one thing in common, one thing that should unite everyone.
We want a stop to rape.
At the end of the day guilty or innocent pales in comparison to this ultimate goal.And it is this goal that we should strive towards.
There was something a very wise carpenter said and it brings my awareness to the ultimate goal whenever i think of it.
"Blessed are the peacemakers"
Goodnight all.
