my innermost sanctum

pure common sense

it's very disturbing to read news

of female youngling's gotten raped after a night out with mates. i know i have had blahed before about my not empathising with some of em victim's.

but still, i find it disturbin. honest.

surely it is common sense to not walk through quiet unlit/poorly lit areas alone? regardless the time? until this day and age, i never find it safe to walk home in the wee hours - even though the usual route is well lit, and my block of flats is situated just next to the road junction.

also, i make a point to take the taxi home after a night out - even if i return home just before eight or nine. and it's not because taxi fares here are cheap that i can afford to do so - i never compromise my safety.

anyways, i had left a comment on the site - which i felt i just have to - whereby i suggested that youngling's make arrangements with their da's, bros or any male relative or trusted neighbour to walk em home after a night out.

i know some amoebic feckless type's would counter argue with their "equal rights" bollock's and summat. but if em scum have the sense to engage brain's before wotsits, the blue marble would be a mighty safe place for one and all.

the sad reality is it isn't.

and at least the poor but brave lass is ok.
