I am so sorry that happened to you. Just think that those men were so threatened by what you were wearing. They must not get out much! It's a sad commentary on`today's society of closed-mindedness, an insular view of the world, and lack of parenting skills.

This sort of thing should never happen, and I'm glad you were not attacked or worse. You were very aware of the situation and handled yourself admirably.

All of you have every right to proctect yourself in the situations described above. But try to take the high road and diffuse the situation if possible. We wouldn't want to see any of you hurt, injured or in jail. It's a scary world out there. Be safe, everybody! Returning the violence to protect yourself is the last resort.

Peace,

Jocelyn
