Petition Life sentences for rape. First, second or third degree!

If a man sexual assaults a woman forcibly, or when the victim is uncapable to consent they must serve a full life sentence in jail.

More details

Too many boys/men are getting away with "sex without consent" this needs to be stopped. If there is a bigger punishment less boys/men will scar women and use them as objects to sexually assault. Third degree rape is just as bad as first or second degree rape.
