And there are thousands who suffer silently, that we will never know of... not to mention those that the molesters kill right after the rape, to shut them up the most effective way.

(Since these statistics were asked for...) I didn't know this, but I did know that typical gunshot wounds have a 3% fatality rate. Much lower than one in twelve. Of course, that's also not including unintentional drug overdoses, as you mentioned. One in twelve...that's sad.

Destai, I don't think I've ever seen a 14-year-old that I could confuse for an adult. I looked much older than I was, especially when I didn't shave (hell, when I was 15 some schmuck kid asked me to buy chew for him, and when I was 17 some moron asked me to buy beer), but I don't think I could have passed for 18 when I was 14. And even so, it's not like a relationship can get started and love grow to that much of a bond before somebody figures out how old their partner is, usually that's something that comes up in the first conversation. A 14-year-old possibly looking like she's 18 doesn't make anything any better. (By the way, underage girls can get into bars because they're ladies, did you never realize that? If the same girl tried to buy cigarettes, unless the guy at the counter was hitting on her, she'd be carded.)
