Turn Down the Porn
Quote:
Instincts took over, James Van Iveren says, when he rushed out his door to the sound of a woman being raped in an apartment above.
"It was a woman screaming," he recalled Tuesday. "She was screaming for help."
Sword in hand, he bounded up the stairs, kicked in the door and confronted a man who turned out to be alone - watching a pornographic movie.
"Now I feel stupid," Van Iveren said.
Worse yet, police seized his sword - a family heirloom - carted him to jail and referred the case to a prosecutor who charged Van Iveren with three criminal counts.

When they say "sword" they really mean his penis right?

"Van Iveren's "mistake" unfolded on the morning of Feb. 12 when Van Iveren, 39, of Oconomowoc, was listening to music in the apartment he shares with his mother behind Red & Bunny's Diner on S. Main St.
Suddenly, according to Van Iveren, the distinct cries of a woman pleading for help could be heard coming from the apartment above him. He tried putting them out of his mind at first, but when they persisted, Van Iveren decided something had to be done.
"I don't have a telephone," he said. "I couldn't call the police."
So, he's 39, lives with his Mom, doesn't own a phone, and keeps a sword on hand to rescue damsels in distress . . . . I've got a better picture of him:
