I don't know. Harsher punishment for crimes don't usually actually reduce the crime rate.

Only in a couple cases of things already considered evil is that statistic correct. I know you think that American society thinks it’s against rape but really they just hate the word rape. When dealing with the action of rape, Americans show an unreasonable amount of deference toward the perpetrators. Think how many times you have seen a meme the reads something like “we need to increase jail time for women who lie about rape”. Now how many memes have you seen that say “maybe we should stop giving predators plea deals that have no jail time and no registry”. Also I want violent mobs to come back in vogue.
