I’m not blaming her, but she was clueless.
It’s like women who walk a dog through a park in the dead of the night and never give a thought to the fact that something bad could happen. Some would even be clueless enough to have headphones on/blaring music.
How is that possible? As a woman, I don’t get it.
Dogs are a great equalizer. I walked mine with a horse lead for a leash. One slip of the thumb and I had a couple of pounds of brass on the end of a heavy nylon rope. So, while some jerk is trying not to get his ass chewed, wham!
