> I assure you it matters to the victims and their families.

Your assurance is no different than my opinion. You are speaking for victims just as I am, but I've been hurt by people I trust and I've been hurt by strangers. They aren't equal to me and I don't think I'm alone in that.

> Again it’s not like the victim of a sexual assault is saying thank god I was rapped by a non-officer.

If you think that is what I was trying to imply then I must have severely mis-worded my previous comment.

> An example of this is a police office in San Diego sexually assaulted (forced oral sex) 16 women after going to their house after they called the police to report a crime. That is so much worse than a stranger doing those things.

I’m the first to welcome enhanced penalties for officers committing crimes in their official capacity...but I find your words very disturbing.
