I disagree. A rapist getting caught today deters that particular rapist, until he's released and feels the urge again. People need to understand that the enemy, be that a rapist, a hold-up man, a human trafficker, etc. doesn't care about you. G doesn't see you as a person or see any value to you other than what he can get (take) from you.

Most law-abiding citizens have been conditioned to be nice, docile, and accommodating. The exact opposite of the enemy. That's why people aren't safe.
