Salazar is obviously an idiot. Whistles? Call boxes? Safe zones? Your average Police response is 10 minutes. Some people say 10 minutres is ok. BS! A LOT can happen in 10 minutes. Ask a lady who has been raped how long 10 minutes is. Ask a Columbine or Aurora theater survivor how long 10 minutes is.Note: A subsequent poster notes that Salazar has two daughters.I'm not saying the answer is for everyone to carry a gun. Pepper spray can be a beautiful thing if used correctly. Whatever your position on the 2nd Amendment is, the thought that SOMEBODY might be packing can do a lot to make a would-be rapist think a little more about whether it's worth risking it.
I don't guess Mr. Salazar has a daughter...
