Gee, just like the old days, when I grew up on the Upper West Side. Some things never change. This crap happened to me too many times in the 70s.
That’s impossible.
De Blasio wasn’t mayor in the 70s.
Exactly, and nothing has ever been done to stop it, and these pigs, I mean ‘individuals,’ know they can get away with it.
I believe that there should be a public campaign encouraging victims to speak out in a loud voice at the time of molestation or other criminal act–publicly identifying both the perpetrator and the act itself. Potentially this would encourage the taking of photos of the perpetrator by bystanders so that he/she could later be apprehended.
Excellent idea, especially in this age of media at hand.
Ho could we initiate such a campaign?
