First, why would the raving mob not anally rape someone just because they are a woman? I can't see the reasoning behind that.
Second, what is it with Leviticus that makes it unsuitable for taking quotes from? There is a very direct passage in it (Lev: 20).

I assume you refer to Genesis 19:14... Are you of the opinion that most English translations are incorrect? Most translations clearly mark that they are not yet married (and as such should be untouched) to their fiance's. Which specific translation do you prefer yourself?

The reason I said that was that I do not think it helps anyone's case to call people fools for not reading the bible, and then argue that the reason they are wrong is that they've read the bible.
I am basically on your side in the actual argument, but you really should chill out a bit.
