Now this is how to deal with a would-be rapist!

Off-duty US navy woman beat the shit out of the wannabe rapist.

DUBAI // A bus driver who tried to rape a passenger at knifepoint chose the wrong victim, a court heard yesterday.

The woman, an off-duty US navy sailor, knocked the knife from his grasp, broke it in two, bit his hand, wrestled him to the ground and put him in a stranglehold between her thighs.

Having beaten him into submission, she left the bus and reported the incident to her commander.

(snip)

Police arrested the driver the next day at his home.

“He was drunk at the time of arrest,” said the attending officer.

The driver, K?S, 21, from Pakistan, was charged with attempted rape, threatening to kill, assault and consuming alcohol illegally.

also generally don't like the results. We know how to hurt people, too.

This is true even if by some act of bullshit he beats the rap.

Dubai + alcohol = Uh, Oh. And the cops found him drunk on his ass. He was probably drinking because he was humiliated that "a mere woman" was able to kick the living shit out of him. And good for her!

There's a big difference between Merchant Marine and USN, though, so it is important to note that.
