Female US sailor beats the cr*p out of Dubai bus driver who tries to rape her [View all]

[ismnotwasm]

A 28 year old female US sailor beat the bejeesus out of a bus driver in Dubai after he pulled a knife on her and announced he was going to rape her.

I’m not entirely comfortable giving a “you go girl!” to a rape story, but damn – it’s nice to see one of these guys finally get their comeuppance. I’m surprised she didn’t kill him.

Basically, she got on the bus after shopping, he drove to a bus terminal, pulled a knife on her, and told her he was going to rape her.

What the bus driver sadly didn’t realize is that the female sailor has ways to try to shut that whole thing down. She beat the cr*p out of him.

The driver is from Pakistan, presumably a guest worker (there are lots in Dubai). Which got me thinking of all the recent rape stories from India, which is right next door to Pakistan. Especially horrific is the recent story of the rape of a 5 year old girl.

Indian authorities are notoriously lax on prosecuting rapes against women, and typically belittle the women rather than go after the rapists. But with an international uproar of condemnation following some recent high profile rapes, that were blown off by the cops – and included some incredibly dismissive comments from top Indian officials – on the case of the 5 year old, at least, there’s been progress in arresting suspects.

This happens on occation. And while I think "you go girl" is grossly inappropriate, I'm betting that the beating had less to do with skill or strength or 'rape prevention training' and more to do with desperation and fight- then -flight.

If this was America, the rapist would probably sue this women and have a whole team of MRA's defending him.

Edit: throwing stones at India isn't cool when we have our own rape defenders

Edit; I can see I haven't made myself clear on the 'you go girl' comment. I simply find it inadequate, and somewhat trivializing.

So, this; I'm very glad she beat the shit out of that rapist piece of shit motherfucker.
