Would you beat your wife's (would-be) rapist to death?

    No it's not. The rapist has to marry her (and can't divorce her), but only if she wants.

    If this guy spends one minute inside a jail cell, I'd be stunned.
    That said, I wouldn't do the tire iron.
    Nope.
    We live in a very rural setting. I have lots of family out here who has sections upon sections upon sections of farmland.
    If I would have caught him messing with any member of my family....I would have given him one phone call to say goodbye to one person in his family that he wanted to.....because they will have never found his fucking body.

    Only if the father wants.

    Both, and it's talking about a preteen.

    To answer the question: Of course. With my bare hands.
    Would I feel any remorse? Not one second. You mess with my wife or my daughters, you better kill me because I certainly will kill you without hesitation.

    This shouldn't even be a question. If you answer no, you're not a man. I love my wife with all of my heart and her safety is job No. 1 for me as a man.

    If this did happen, I'd personally would channel my inner Bezerker rage given to me by my Viking ancestors and take care of business with bare hands or a tire iron, if nearby, as this man did.

    If he was in the South, no jury would convict him of anything.

    This is one time when it's better to have a gun.

    Not because it's better protection, but because you are much less likely to get charged with shooting a would-be rapist to death than killing him with a tire iron or your bare hands.

    Husband's name is Diallo. Apparently a difficult name with which to get justice in New York. Or are you all too young to remember?

    Yep. I'd be way too emotional to notice the line between justifiable force and criminal behavior (hope jury feels the same way here).

    My wife has about eleventy thousand knitting needles around the house. Would-be rapist is asking for an eye gouging at our home.

    Not just the last name ... Mamadou was close enough to Amadou that I did a double take.
