Lefty - I know you don't give away your own money
but you gonna chip in for girls safety and help buy some
Mexican (and Moslem rape whistles in Europe). Mexico is
giving out a half million rape whistles to female subway riders.
Would you run towards the sound of a harm-whistle.
There would of course be hope for you if you did.
Mexico City’s Mayor Miguel Angel Mancera is handing out plastic whistles. A half-million of them . At three bucks a pop, he’s hoping that women will use the whistles to scare off harassers on the packed public transportation system.
When the plan was announced this summer, it received a flurry of scathing criticism and mocking memes on social media. But city officials are moving forward and have been handing out the whistles by the thousands at subway and bus stops.
At the Zapata metro station in the southern end of Mexico City, the buses and subways are packed at midday, the perfect conditions for harassment, say women. Nearly everyone has a story.
“They tried to grab me from behind,” says Vanesa Sumana, 20. Luckily she spoke up and was on the subway with her dad.
“I said, ‘Dad they’re grabbing me,’” says Sumana. “Just then my dad turned around and punched the guy.”
