25. That's hogwash

Please, that's such bullshit. To say the military actively "allows" rape is absurd. There may be occasions where certain commanders aren't doing their job, and look the other way for whatever reason. But I guarantee you there are plenty of servicemen doing hard time at Leavenworth and other installations for rape.

You can get raped in ANY profession you go into. How many times in civilian life do rapists get away because the local authorities look the other way? Does that mean that the United States allows rape?
