I’m actually kind of surprised no one came forward with video or photos of any of the incidents…

Seems most of the cars ahead of me were males slowing down to get an eyefull of the young pretty jogger. When I got my turn I could see why they slowed down. She was very attractive and apparently had a problem keeping her brests contained in her tiny shirt and felt she needed to keep her arm across her brests while jogging. Her other hand was free …. I wondered why she wasn’t concerned about the fact that her buttocks were also exposed. It’s Spring and time for abreviated clothing which will arouse all sorts of behavior.

I have witnessed lewd public acts in my lifetime. The housing project i grew up in was no bubble. Your right on the mark with this one, Kev.

But, in my opinion, it’s not exactly a sign of the times. The instant broadcast and media fury over these events is more of a phenomenon. It’s actually a phenomenon that makes me at least as nervous, because it increases panic and fear. I’ve seen some gross things living downtown my whole life. If you haven’t been exposed to some sort of lewd public acts, you’re probably living in a bubble, oblivious, or maybe just downright lucky.

I can tell you that I would wait for the school bus outside my house growing up and never worry about anything… but today when I wait for my son’s school bus to drop him off every time an unmarked white van drives by I think it’s a potential kidnapper (of me). I could just need therapy though.

At least then all the creeps have a place to congregate, away from cemeteries and public parks and the like.

And a naked guy on a hill? And frat boys doing it to a girl that isn’t even a teenager?
