Minister Cele, nobody is lucky to be raped

Minister Cele, nobody is lucky to be raped.
Every time a woman, a child or a man is raped in our country we lose a part of our soul as a nation. It rips at our heartstrings, tears away at our delicate social fabric and exposes the failures of our state and our society in the most graphic and devastating way.
Not a single South African of the 153 that are raped every single day are lucky and none of those that escape rape are lucky to have even been in a situation where they could have been raped.
The words lucky and raped should never EVER exist in the same sentence.
