GOP Sheriff Craig Rowland in Idaho has this thought about rape:



So if you are a woman in his part of Idaho, how likely is it that you'd report your rape knowing the attitude of the head of the local police? Even the legislature of the state seems to know that allegations of rape might be better handled if taken seriously and the evidence processed. Sure, most women who claim rape are liars and the sex was consensual, wink wink. After all, subjecting yourself to the rape kit collection, the police interview, the potential of having to go to court with the details of your sexual assault all the while knowing that the defense will accuse you of being a liar and a tramp.. Women really love to report false rapes, all the time. The bill has passed and awaits the governor's signature.
