She said she was raped by their hands. Now that you mention it, that is not rape.

Actually, penetration is considered rape. People can be raped with an object (a broomstick, for example), or manually. And the term applies to both men and women when they are subjected to penetration.

good grief, if this happened to your wife, sister, or mother you would be outraged.

Instead you are arguing what the definition of is, is.

Why did it happen? Because she was a blonde in the middle of 10,000 screaming radical muslims who have no respect for women.

Oh really? Do you know how many sexual predators are inprison for that very thing in the USA?

Should we just set them all free?

Most states have a law called “rape by instrumentation”. That is the forcible or non-consensual penetration of a vagina by something other than a penis. The penalties are pretty severe.
