A good husband would have little else on his mind other than making sure his wife was okay, I would have thought.... Was rape mentioned at all? I had the thought that this was a consenual act between two people. Then the Husband shot at a person leaving. So if the "husband" used a firearm it was not in defence of his "wife" and it would then appear that the safety of the wife may have been the last thing on his mind.	Sweep (90)

The old lady spent a week hunting these men down -- and when she found them, she took revenge on them in her own special way, said Melbourne police investigator Evan Delp. Then she took a taxi to the nearest police station, laid the gun on the sergeant's desk and told him as calm as could be: 'Those bastards will never rape anybody again, by God.' Cops say convicted rapist and robber Davis Furth , 33, lost both his penis and his testicles when outraged Ava opened fire with a 9-mm pistol in the hotel room where he and former prison cell mate Stanley Thomas, 29, were holed up. The wrinkled avenger also blew Thomas' testicles to kingdom come, but doctors managed to save his mangled penis, police said. The one guy, Thomas, didn't lose his manhood, but the doctor I talked to said he won't be using it the way he used to, Detective Delp told reporters. Both men are still in pretty bad shape, but I think they're just happy to be alive after what they've been through. The Rambo Granny swung into action August 21 after her granddaughter Debbie was carjacked and raped in broad daylight by two knife-wielding creeps in a section of town bordering on skid row. 'When I saw the look on my Debbie's face that night in the hospital, I decided I was going to go out and get those bastards myself 'cause I figured the Law would go easy on them,' recalled the retired library worker. 'And I wasn't scared of them, either-- because I've got me a gun and I've been shooting' all my life. And I wasn't dumb enough to turn it in when the law changed about owning one'. So, using a police artist's sketch of the suspects and Debbie's description of the sickos', tough-as-nails, Ava spent seven days prowling the wino-infested neighbourhood where the crime took place till she spotted the ill fated rapists entering their flophouse hotel. I knew it was them the minute I saw 'em, but I shot a picture of 'em anyway and took it back to Debbie and she said sure as hell, it was them, the oldster recalled. So I went back to that hotel and found their room and knocked on the door and the minute the big one,, opened the door, I shot 'em right square between the legs, right where it would really hurt 'em most, you know. Then I went in and shot the other one as he backed up pleading to me to spare him. Then I went down to the police station and turned myself in. Now, baffled lawmen are trying to figure out exactly how to deal with the vigilante granny. What she did was wrong, and she broke the law, but it is difficult to throw an 81-year-old woman in prison, Det. Delp said, especially when 3 million people in the city want to nominate her for Mayor. DEPORT HER TO NEW ZEALAND --- WE NEED HER! Let's replace the judiciary with people like Granny Ava!

665899	2008-05-05 12:03:00	Wow, Lurking - is that story really true??? She's got to be one shining example. If the law will just slap 'em, then we'll just shoot their balls off! Literally....	qazwsxokmijn (102)

665901	2008-05-06 11:10:00	I think we do just OK, it's the soft sentencing that is absolute sh*t. Generally speaking we're a punitive country with regard sentencing - not a soft one. The Sensibull Sentencing crowd of course can always find some US State that is tougher than here, but tougher sentences won't make much impact other than to make the criminals more likely to commit more serious crime.

If they are that broken in the head that their future will consist of an elevation in criminal behaviour then the best thing we can do is look after the interest of the people (the law abiding people that pay for everything) and lock the scumbags away from society.

It costs a lot to do that for life (irrespective of whether that would be a sane approach) and if you let them out you just have angry people. The US seems to lead the "get tough" movement and they have the worst crime in the western world. You'd have more chance of surviving in Baghdad than some parts of LA. Unfortunately people listen to the Sensible Sentencing Trust who will ultimately offer up exactly what they claim to oppose - a more violent society.	Twelvevolts (5457)
