That’s not an age thing, it’s a photo filter thing.

Exactly. I’m infuriated by this bullshit.

I support effective solutions as long as they are rational, make sense and are just.

Squeezing people to spend more to fix the city’s problems isn’t it.

There are so many proactive split to go about solving this.

Oh you haven’t heard? The solution is simple: Make it as difficult as possible for law abiding citizens to defend themselves or defend other victims, limit the police ability to respond and then refuse to prosecute if anyone gets arrested. Finally, if a violent offender ever does somehow accidentally slip through the cracks and gets convicted by mistake then we’ll simply ‘catch and release’ them back into the community ASAP.

After all, it would be unfair to hold an individual responsible for a violent crime they’ve committed because as we all know: violence is caused solely by inanimate objects.

Made the big mistake of sitting by the window once. Crusty man sits next to me despite the train being mostly empty and immediately starts touching himself. I jumped up and asked to get out and he wouldn’t budge, but thankfully literally everyone else in the train came to my rescue and pestered him to get out of the way. Learned my lesson

Men and women have different desirability curves on these apps. Women's goes down while men's goes up as we age. My experience as a nearly 40 year old male was amazing compared to what I had in my twenties.

Eta, funny to see downvotes for factual statements. The OLD sites release data sometimes. Don't like truth, cover you eyes and move on.

it’s good she said a different stop than where she’s going, but a better street smart move is to say nothing. She doesn’t owe anyone any explanation about what she’s doing or where she’s going. might seem a little rude but i’ve been riding the metro since I was 14 and I think it’s safest to engage as little as possible.

another piece of advice: she should trust her gut. changing seats or cars because you have a bad feeling is absolutely ok, even if it turns out to be nothing. our instincts are good at warning us, and we should always be cautious and listen

Sounds like the person who drove off is guilty

Our AG and most of our city council members seem to believe that the appropriate response to centuries of racism and discrimination, and police misconduct, is to let Black teenagers do crimes.

Hugs. That saying about having a kid is like wearing your heart outside your body is true!!

This made me smile AND get a little teary. Thank you!!

Find a basic self-defense course for women. Take it together and make it an event. Follow it up with a nice dress-up lunch. It will give her the skills she needs and you the reassurance that she can fend for herself.

you're not doing a good job challenging anything, you're just coming off as easily upset

It all depends on where on GA ave you are.

The point is safety. Starbucks would not put their $$$ in a dangerous area . I'm not a client of Walmart or Starbucks
