Women Fear Sexual Assault Spree Along Manhattan’s West Side
Women Fear Sexual Assault Spree Along Manhattan’s West Side

MANHATTAN — A string of sexual assaults on the west side has left women rattled while the suspects remain at large.

Four women were assaulted last weekend in Washington Heights, Inwood and the Upper West Side. Posters offering $2,000 rewards for tips on suspects have been unwelcome to many residents, who see them as unsettling reminders that the attackers are still on the loose.

See police sketch of the suspect at DNAinfo.com >

"It's a gorgeous day and instead of focusing on that, I'm looking at these faces," Inwood resident Emily Short, 28, said pointing at posters on street lamps while walking through a farmer's market on Saturday. "I'm glad the cops are looking, but really when it comes down to it, what are we supposed to do?"

Seems rather obvious that the rise of the right is bringing an increase in the war on women.


IMO, pornography serves as organized propaganda against females -- just as much

as the RCC's "Hammer of Witches" did --

just as much as Nazi propaganda against the Jews did --

and just as much as preaching intolerance and hatred for homosexuals from church

pulpits did --

just as much as Segregation -- "whites only" drinking fountains and waiting rooms did --


Many males are being found to be addicted to internet porn --

"'There is no direct link to rape' -- but does it alienate men from women --

does it argue for female inequality --

does it lead to any aggression vs women or any violence towards them?

From street comments to sexual enslavement, from fear of women to actual

violence against them?"
