Sadly too many people wait until something bad happens before they react. Take for instance here in my area, a man has been groping women, so far something like 8 victims but we don’t know if that is all or exactly how long this has been going on.

He has been stalking women around the University campus here in Austin. What really surprised me was the way they found some of the 8 victims. It wasn’t by them reporting the attack it was a news report.

One of the victims, Sarah Kelly, a young UT student said she was groped while walking her dog outside of her apartment but she didn’t even report it until she saw the sketch of the attacker in her email inbox from the campus police.

She said she didn’t feel like it was enough to call police, until she saw a sketch. Not enough?? He walked up and asked for directions in broad daylight while walking her puppy and grabbed her butt. How could that not be enough?

I even saw comments on news stories about this that said things like “what’s the big deal?”. I assume people must not realize that these guys that do this and get bolder as they go will eventually cross the line to full fledged sexual assault or even worse; it is all just a matter of time.

Some of the worst animals to commit crimes were people that build as they go. They have to keep crossing lines to keep getting thrills and it usually ends with some poor child or unsuspecting woman dead.

Never let stuff like this go and tell your daughters the same thing. It isn’t normal behavior to force yourself on people like this and it shouldn’t be ignored.

Another thing, keep that safety zone around you when out alone in public even during the day. The zone should be kept free of all strangers and if you do that as much as possible you can help to eliminate the risk of some scumbag cop’in a feel on your fun parts.

I did see one student interviewed and she actually had her pepper spray out while walking. I applauded, it wasn’t one of ours but hey it was something; not that I’ll guarantee it will work Now with one of ours! hahahha

Since there are still new victims of this guy, including today with a jogger, not enough people are taking their safety seriously. Don’t be one of those people!

Stop by and see us to stock up on pepper spray and stun guns for the ones you care about.
