Sex without Consent equals Rape
Sex without Consent equals Rape

A story was just released by 10News.com that really upset me.  It concerns "a desolate corner of San Diego County" that is "so dangerous 10News crews had to put on bulletproof vests before entering the area." "The violence in this area is so bad that a 12-year-old was raped to death."

This kind of news make me sick.  It makes me angry.  And makes me wonder what can we do to stop it.

News10 reports "They're ruthless; they'll come over here, they'll pick one out that they want, they drag her off onto the rocks, they'll rape her and they just leave them here," said Carl Braun, founder of the Border Patrol Auxiliary, a group that assists U.S. Border Patrol agents."

Wait a minute .. they'll come over here?!  Apparently these depraved Mexican mongrols will cross the U.S. border to prey on anyone they want.  They also commit these heinous crimes with clients who become victims because these perverts act as human smugglers and then exact a higher price than the poor ladies/girls/women ever bargained for.

Women pay these men to help bring them into America, but before they get to the border, or once they get just across the border, these men demand more money, rape them, then hang their victims undergarments on sticks and trees symbolizing their immoral activity.

Carl Braun said he witnessed a woman being raped but he could not help her because it happened on the south side of the border.

What?!?  I'm thinking "Shoot the guy!" "Go over and beat the living daylights out of him!" "Rescue that woman!" And then run back across the border or do whatever you need to do to protect yourself.
What kind of laws do we have in place where we have to be afraid of protecting women and children?!

I'm reminded of the two men from Texas, Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean, who shot a drug dealer from Mexico in the rump and they ended up in jail!  Border patrol agents doing their job, protecting our country, our citizens, and their reward was prison.  How insane are the laws in our country?!  Lawyers from America put the good guys away.  They were in jail, away from their families, with the overwhelming support of the American public, and it made virtually no difference for approximately four years.  After the men were locked up and had served 2 years of their 11 and 12 yr. sentences, President Bush finally made the effort to pardon both of them just before leaving office in January.

So as a Christian, this type of news apalls me.  I believe in turning the other cheek, but that's my cheek.  I would hope that if I was witness to such a brutal act, that I would defend the defenseless.  
I would protect the weak.  I would rescue the victim.  And I would suffer the consequences later.

Jesus said:

"Therefore whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets." ~ Matthew 8:12
I would want someone to rescue me.

"No greater love hath any man than this, that he would lay down his life for his friends." ~ John 15:13
That woman, or that 12-yr-old, may not be my friend beforehand, but they certainly would be afterward.

"As you have done it unto one of the least of these, you have done it unto me" ~ Matthew 25:40
Will a man rape God? or will he credit your heroic deed on Judgement day?

"Vengence is mine, I will repay" "The Lord will judge his people." It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. ~ Hebrews 10:30,31
