Rambo Granny of Melborne

The Rambo Granny of Melbourne , Australia

Gun-toting granny Ava Estelle, 81, was so ticked-off when two thugs raped her 18-year-oldgranddaughter that she tracked the unsuspecting ex-cons down - and shot off their testicles.

The old lady spent a week hunting those men down -and, when she found them, she took revenge on them in her own special way,�said Melbourne police investigator Evan Delp.

Then she took a taxi to the nearest police station,�laid the gun on the sergeant's desk and told him as calm as could be: 'Those bastards will never rape anybody again, by God.'

Cops say convicted rapist and robber Davis Furth, 33, lost both his penis and his testicles�when outraged Ava opened fire with a 9-mm pistol in the hotel room where he and former prison cell mate Stanley Thomas, 29, were holed up..

The wrinkled avenger also blew Thomas' testicles to kingdom come,�but doctors managed to save his mangled penis, police said.�'The one guy, Thomas, didn't lose his manhood, 'but the doctor I talked to said he won't be using it the way he used to,'�Detective Delp told reporters. 'Both men are still in pretty bad shape, 'but I think they're just happy to be alive after what they've been through.'

The Rambo Granny swung into action August 21 after her granddaughter Debbie was carjacked and raped in broad daylight by two knife-wielding creeps in a section of town bordering on skid row.. 'When I saw the look on my Debbie's face that night in the hospital,�'I decided I was going to go out and get those bastards myself�''cause I figured the Law would go easy on them,' recalled the retired library worker..�'And I wasn't scared of them, either - because I've got me a gun and I've been shootin' all my life.�'And I wasn't dumb enough to turn it in when the law changed about owning one.'

So, using a police artist's sketch of the suspects and Debbie's description of the sickos, tough-as-nails Ava spent seven days prowling the wino-infested neighborhood where the crime took place�till shespotted the ill-fated rapists entering their flophouse hotel.�'I knew it was them the minute I saw 'em, but I shot a picture of 'em anyway'and took it back to Debbie and she said sure as hell, it was them,' the oldster recalled.
�

'So I went back to that hotel and found their room and knocked on the door,�'and the minute the big one opened the door, I shot 'em right square between the legs,'right where it would really hurt 'em most, you know.�'Then I went in and shot the other one 'as he backed up pleading to me to spare him.'Then I went down to the police station and turned myself in..'

Now, baffled lawmen are trying to figure out exactly how to deal with the vigilante granny.�'What she did was wrong, and she broke the law, but it is difficult to throw an 81-year-old woman in prison,' Det. Delp said, 'especially when 3 million people in the city want to nominate her for Mayor.'

DEPORT HER TO AMERICA - WE NEED HER!

Australian Gun Law Update�
�
Here's a thought to warm some of your hearts...�
From: Ed Chenel , A police officer in Australia


�
Hi Yanks, I thought you all would like to see the real figures from Down Under.�
�It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forcedby a new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by�our own government, a program costing� Australia � taxpayers more than $500 million dollars.�
�
The first year results are now in:�
Australia-wide,�homicides are up 6.2 percent,�
Australia-wide,�assaults are up 9.6 percent;�
Australia-wide,�armed robberies�are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)!�
�
In the state of Victoria alone,�homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent.�(Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in,�the criminals did not and criminals still possess their guns!)�
�
While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed robbery with firearms,�this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months, since the criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.�
�
There has also been�a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the elderly, while the resident is at home.�
�
Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in 'successfully ridding Australian society of guns..' You won't see this on the American evening news or hear your governor or members of the State Assembly disseminating this information.�
�
The Australian experience speaks for itself. Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws affect only the law-abiding citizens.
Take note Americans, before it's too late!


Will you be one of the sheeple to turn yours in? WHY?� You will need it.

Where did she get the 9 mm pistol?

All semi-autos were to be turned in a year ago.

At 81, what can they do to you. Good lady.

She tells you right in the article...

'And I wasn't dumb enough to turn it in when the law changed about owning one.'

Wish her the best.

Was just about to post that... It fails the "if it sounds too good to be true" test. Snopes isn't always 100%, but it'll catch 90% of these email stories.
