It was only about 2-3 months ago that one of the television stations in New York fired a female weather reporter for falsely claiming she had been raped in Central Park. Apparently "victim" status is the new substitute for intellect.
She made an adult decision to go out into a mob in a City/Country in which not only has a very different culture, but where normal law enforcement had broken down, and she got a result that was not all that difficult to anticipate. Totally stupid behavior. I am amazed at the number of PC people who apparently choose to live in Thailand, maybe if all the politically correct idiots from the West would move here, I could go home.
