Heavily pregnant woman raped in her own home by gang of burglars armed with sawn-off shotgun (UK)
Daily Mail ^

Posted on 09/29/2009 8:14:57 AM PDT by traumer

A heavily pregnant woman was raped at gunpoint in her bedroom by a gang of armed burglars who broke into her home.

The 33-year-old victim, who was seven months' pregnant, was watching TV with her boyfriend when the balaclava-clad men forced their way into their North London home.

Her 39-year-old boyfriend was threatened and hit around the head with the butt of a sawn-off shotgun as they demanded the keys to their Audi TT which was parked outside.

The woman was then grabbed and forced upstairs by one of the attackers and forced to perform a sex act on him which police have described as 'oral rape'.

He threatened to shoot the couple unless she did what he said.

Speaking for the first time about the rape, the victim said: 'I just wanted to protect my baby. I was absolutely terrified and being so late in the pregnancy I didn't want to get into a fight where they might hurt me or my baby.

'He (the rapist) said it was my lucky day.'

If either of those homeowners had been allowed to carry a gun, those thugs would be dead.

Did they consult Whoopi to make sure it is rape-rape?

This is a lie.

People aren't allowed to own guns in Britain, so this could never have happened.

Such guns are ILLEGAL in the United Kingdom so the victims must have been mistaken.

Maybe it was a baseball bat and he just thought it was a sawed off shotgun.

Lucky the victims didn’t have the right to have a firearm for protection or there could have been an incident....

...keep the following in mind. We all know that if the “boyfriend” were allowed something other than a wooden spoon as a weapon, this probably would not have happened.

Senate Bill SB-2099 will require us to put on our 2009 1040 federal tax form
all guns that you have or own. It will require fingerprints and a tax of $50
per gun.

Horrible story, but it brings up another question:

Week after week I read stories, profiles, or see TV programs, etc. about life in the UK. When the story is about a couple, more often than not, the couple is not married. Even on animal Planet when Victoria Stillwell goes to help a couple with their unruly dog, the couple usually is not married.

What’s going on in Britain? Doesn’t anyone get married anymore? Is there some kind of subsidy available for unmarried women that they won’t receive if they tie the knot? Will someone from the UK please explain this phenomona to me?

the balaclava-clad men

I was thinking "Greek pastry" until I looked it up:

Bal a clav a a close-fitting garment covering the whole head and neck except for parts of the face, typically made of wool.

Sadly enough, over there if you were to be fortunate enough to have a gun, piece of pipe, knife, etc. and did manage to kill one of those thugs, the government would charge you with the crime.

Enough with the SB-2099 drivel already. This has been debunked time and time again.

‘It’s not “rape” rape’, said Whoopi Goldberg.
