I don't know.
How late was it?
Do you live on a dark street?
Are there ample places for an assailant to hide?
Is it in a neighborhood that has a relatively high crime rate?
Kevin, this is what I am referring to. I asked if I was partially to blame here, and your reply implies that maybe I was. That's a different thing than the victim being 0% to blame. I am seriously not trying to be antagonistic. Just trying to have a dialog on an admittedly raw and emotional topic, but one that I find unbelievably important.
If The Flintstones have taught us anything, it's that pelicans can be used to mix cement.
