And here's today's case in point. A woman in Britain says that she was physically and verbally assaulted by two men on a crowded Tube platform.
As she points out, there is precious little protection from such assaults
I know I’ve banged this drum before, but the fact is that the police do not and logistically cannot protect us from this kind of harm. In this country, I am not even allowed to carry pepper spray or mace to ward off assaults like the one I suffered today. In whose world is this the right and proper order of things?
