lmfbs If I'm attacked in the street, that's the attackers fault, not mine, the alleyway's or the lack of lighting. DONT ASSAULT PEOPLE. /@NZStuff 1:58 PM Mar 11th via Tweetbot for iOS Retweeted by HollabackWgtn and 4 others
@CharHellbilly @mcquillanatorz sometimes I get sad about the world. Then I think: HOLLABACK! 2:02 PM Mar 11th via Twitter for iPhone in reply to HellBroad
WgtnFeminists Hey beautiful people, @NZStuff have advised the poll with "Unsafe, women shouldn't walk alone" as an option was written by @dompost 1:59 PM Mar 11th via web Retweeted by HollabackWgtn and 1 other
@blairensor @covlin @mcquillanatorz being 'warned' puts the onus on the victim to avoid those locations - that's not making it safer 1:54 PM Mar 11th via Twitter for iPhone in reply to blairensor
How about 'don't assault people' as a safety tip? I'm looking at you @nzstuff 1:48 PM Mar 11th via Twitter for iPhone
@Covlin @mcquillanatorz @blairensor reports that make it into the media however... that's a different story 1:24 PM Mar 11th via web in reply to Covlin
@Covlin @mcquillanatorz @blairensor Assault can happen anywhere, daytime or night. Saying one place is more dangerous than another is naive 1:22 PM Mar 11th via web in reply to Covlin
@mcquillanatorz @coleytangerina which is defs victim blaming: Remember ladies/lgbtq peeps don't get assaulted! It's your own responsibility 1:18 PM Mar 11th via web in reply to mcquillanatorz
@mcquillanatorz @coleytangerina I think it's basically asking how much you alter your behaviour to minimise the risk of sexual violence 1:16 PM Mar 11th via web in reply to mcquillanatorz
@mcquillanatorz @blairensor Lambton Quay doesn't have a rep because ppl don't percieve it as dodgy but just as much harrasment happens there 1:12 PM Mar 11th via web in reply to mcquillanatorz
@mcquillanatorz @blairensor Opera House Lane has a reputation because our culture likes to say: you shouldn't walk there alone, it's dodgy 1:10 PM Mar 11th via web in reply to mcquillanatorz
@mcquillanatorz @blairensor I wouldn't say one spot is more dangerous than others - harrassment and assault can happen anywhere 1:08 PM Mar 11th via web in reply to mcquillanatorz
