- Let me get this straight, you would be happy to escort a male through a
- high-crime area to protect him, and then walk alone back through same area
- yourself?

- Just remember, when you are walking back through that area, and you become a
- victim again, you did it for someone else's benefit.

- We are NOT one big family, no matter what you wish. There are members of
- your "family" out there who would enjoy killing you and raping your corpse.
- There are others who would take no satisfaction in killing you, but would do it
- for $1.28 in loose change. There are members of your family who would not even
- think they were doing anything wrong by taking turns holding you down so their
- buddies could "party" with you.
-
- YOU show them a better way by offering up your flesh for their sacrifice. You
- set te good example which will eventually teach them right from wrong.
-
- And, while you are changing all of the bretheren, I will applaud your every
- victory.

- DC
-
- PS. That is IF you change anything other than yourself.
