[pp.int.general] How rape laws get abused

[Pat Maechler v/o Valio]

I think Michael Moore made an excellent summary, about the aspect of the 
rape allegations against Julian Assange and the prosecution, which I 
would like to mention on this list

I especially like this quote from Katrin Axelsson:
There is a long tradition of the use of rape and sexual assault for 
political agendas that have nothing to do with women's safety. [...] 
Women don't take kindly to our demand for safety being misused, while 
rape continues to be neglected at best or protected at worst.
