4 sought in gang rape of lesbian

[ccharles000]

(San Francisco, California) Police in Richmond, northeast of San Francisco, are hunting four men accused of the brutal kidnapping and gang rape of a lesbian. Investigators have appealed to the public for help and have posted a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrests and conviction of the men.

Police said that the 28 year old victim was confronted by the four as she got out of her car on December 12. She was beaten, raped and robbed. When the attackers heard someone approaching they forced the women into her car and made her drive to a desolate area where the attack and rape continued.

Police said that during the ordeal the men made a series of homophobic remarks. Investigators said they believe the men realized the victim was a lesbian because of a rainbow sticker on her car.

If the men are caught they will face a hate crime charge on top of charges of rape, assault with a deadly weapon, robbery, carjacking and kidnapping.

The men escaped in the victim’s car. She was able to get help from a nearby resident who called police and paramedics.

The woman was treated in hospital and continues to receive psychological counseling.

I hope they find those four devolved bastards.

1. Hate crimes and rape. Good, they deserve more though! n/t

[lapfog_1]

2. This is why that Hate Monger, Rick Warren, should not be given a

public podium, paid for by us, from which to project his "soft" bigotry, even if he never mentions a word about gays.

When people of his ilk are accepted as "part of the mainstream of American thought", it creates a climate where these animals can perpetrate these acts of hatred through violence.

3. !!

:applause:

[Ioo]

4. Comeon ! It's okay... Rick also is anti-hunger.. so please ignore the hate

I mean, where the hell do you get off connecting the hate that Rick Warren is spreading and the homophobic comments during the gang rape of a human. That is just not fair, they are not connected.......


Oh wait, THEY SURE THE FUCK ARE!!!!

5. This is heinous

I don't know that we have punishment enough for this crime.

Rape, in and of itself, is monstrous, abhorrent, and inhuman.

But to rape a lesbian, is just evil for the sake of evil.

There is no base passion, there is no desire, there is no lust.

There is just the desire to damage, to inflict pain.

When rape is unforgivable, what then, this?

[gollygee]

7. Do you think rape is about passion and lust in other cases?

?

It was done as an act of terrorism against the LGBT community, which is why it's a hate crime in addition to being a crime of rape, but rape is awful for all people who are raped. It's an act of violence, not passion, no matter who the victim is. Also, straight men often lust after lesbians.

I'm just completely confused by your post.

[Xipe Totec]

8. I have enough problems grappling with the crime of rape alone

It is unforgiveable.

But what they did was not motivated by lust, it was just pure hatred.

[gollygee]

12. Again

Rape is motivated by hate, no matter who the victim is. And straight men often lust after lesbians. And all rape is unforgivable. The reason this is also a hate crime is because it is 1. a rape and 2. an act of terrorism against her community, so there are two issues at play. But rape is always hateful and always unforgivable.

13. If you can understand it, good for you.

Because I can't.

It is beyound my ability to comprehend.

[Thothmes]

14. What scientific proof do you have to offer that

"straight men often lust after lebsbians". Or is this just bull shit.

[rebecca_herman]

23. While I have no scientific proof either way

There are certainly people of any sexual orientation who are attracted to people they know aren't attracted to them. So it is absolutely possible that a heterosexual man could be sexually attracted to a lesbian.

That said, I think most rapes are motivated primarily by factors other than lust and I find all rapes equally hideous. I feel terrible for this young woman and I hope she is able to recover.

[Confusious]

16. Rape is not motivated by hate

Its all about control

[mmonk]

21. A control that is derived from hate because it doesn't respect the humanity

of the person.

[Confusious]

18. Oh, I'm straight

And I don't lust after lesbians. Maybe a couple of BI, but the lesbians are always to butch for my taste. HAHA! pun!

[uppityperson]

9. Thank you. Me too. I would like some clarification there.

[Xipe Totec]

10. See 8 above.

[liberalmuse]

6. God help them when they are found.

They'll need to be put into protective custody, not that I give a shit what happens to cretins like these. This is despicable. Any kind of rape is heinous, but to target someone specifically because of their sexuality is somehow especially reprehensible. Well, it's a hate crime, is what it is, and this is the very reason we need to have harsher penalties for those who commit hate crimes. Christ, when will people understand this???

[yardwork]

11. Why do you think that they will be targeted?

I'm not arguing with you, just genuinely curious. It seems to me that people get away with raping and murdering women and gay people all the time. I can't remember the last time I heard much outrage about it from mainstream society. I'm quite serious about this, but willing to listen to your views.

[Confusious]

19. People get away with murdering children, women, men on a daily biasis

If you haven't seen the news recently, it happens all over the world, and we're just to small to do anything about it except in our own little worlds.

15. OMG. This is horrible. ;-(

:cry:

[David Zephyr]

17. Whipping up hate against my community is a "red-blooded" sport in America.

And straights want to know why we queers are always so pissed off?

[Muttocracy]

20. :-(

:cry:

[ZombieHorde]

22. Anger inducing.

24. Sick.Sick.Sick.

I have no words...
