At least rape and pillage doesn't occur anymore.(Well not much anyway). " (Fiolar)

There are some fortunate places where that broad generalisation isn't that far off the truth. But I suspect that overall there's probably been more rape and pillage over the past half century or so than there ever has been before. It's organised more efficiently these days, as a technique of war, rather than just being left to happen on the side.

You'll be saying isn't it a good thing we don't have torture any more next...
