Girl Seeks Help On Facebook During Assault 417
A 12-year-old girl who was being assaulted by her mother's ex-boyfriend used some quick thinking by sending a message on her iPod to a friend's Facebook account for help. The friend was able to contact the girl's mother who then contacted the police. 42-year-old Raymond Ernest Cesmat was arrested and charged with two counts of criminal sexual conduct in the first degree. He is being held at the Dakota County Jail on $175,000 bail.

I am not advocating that 12-year olds should carry weapons, but had she known how to use one, she certainly would have been justified in defending herself.
I knew a kid growing up that picked up a target rifle when someone broke into his house and attempted to rape his mother.
You know, I can't condone rape under any circumstance, but raping your mother while someone's breaking into the house just seems particularly unwise.

different from a random bugler or rapist
I, for one, live in fear of random buglers.
