[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yikes.  It's dark at 6:45pm. Trails are unsafe.[/quote]

A few years ago, I witnessed a woman get assaulted on a trail in DC at 2:30pm on a Thursday. It was on a weather day like today - warm, sunny, lovely.

The time of day doesn't matter for men looking to hurt women and girls. [/quote]

What happened? Did you or someone else intervene?! That’s horrible. [/quote]

The perp didn't know I was still in eyeshot, but my spidey senses went off when I saw him following her. And when I saw him pull her and heard her scream, I ran towards them - he took off. I called police (who were useless).

Hats off to you! [/quote]

It still makes me so angry when I think about it.

And I'm so tired of people saying women and girls shouldn't be out alone at night - this sh!t happens all the time. How many times do you hear about creepy men following kids after school? Are these men only good during some hours, and then suddenly get molesty, assaulty, and rapey after dark? They don't give a sh!t about the time of day. Disgusting men just look for an opportunity when it's convenient for them, at any time of day or night.

The issue is safety.  Yes, we should be able to go out any time and not worry about these things but that's not the world we live in.  Women do bad things too.  Its not just men.[/quote]
