Parisian women reveal safety fears after gang-rape of Australian woman
MailOnline conducted a series of interviews in Pigalle, and the recurring response was one of shock and horror - and concern about the safety of being out on the city's streets after dark.
“ The alleged victim had spent Friday night drinking in the bars and clubs around the Moulin Rouge cabaret - an area popular tourists - before the men approached her. ” It was 5am when she was making her way home. The local women mention they can’t wear miniskirts and like tube top things, without unwanted sexual attention late at night. There are men everywhere just looking at them….situational awareness people. In what world does a woman dressed like this, walking around in the middle in the night, not place themselves in danger? Any city in America is this bad. Of course Australia has a bad immigration problem, esp in their city. So knowing this, might wanna keep the street walker look and clubbing off your daily routine. And that goes for every woman, in every city in the world. She’s lucky to be alive.
However it would seem that it's not just late night cringe- if you've been reading, you'll know that broad daylight attacks happen with increasing frequency. Victim blaming doesn't help the 12 year old who was kidnapped, the mother returning home with a neighbor from dropping her kids off at school, etc. Many years ago, I visited Paris and it was brightly lit 24 hours a day. I was warned only about Montmartre at the time, and the rest of the place was open, so to speak. That ain't the case anymore, at any hour.
I was commenting on the post title. I’m aware of the immigration situation, as I stated.
