Nah. There's plenty of non-murder crimes that give people life. Drug dealing, robbing banks, Bernie Madoff's pyramid. Tons of crime revolving around money and such. People don't go- oh well they'll surely murder if they get life. Sometimes you got to let the sentence match the justice for the crime and not be scared about it escalating. Shit already escalates all the time with rape/murders.

Why so many people want such little time for the second most heinous act behind murder. Rape is a torture of the mind and sense of self worth that lasts a lifetime and can cause people all sorts of traumas. Rapists definitely deserve life behind bars.

Because dead rape victims can't come forward. If rape is punished as severely, or moreso, than murder, no rapist would ever let their victims live. Your vengeance boner isn't worth more than human lives.
