Thought about that, but women carry self defence stuff these days, pepper spray.. knife.
I've seen at a local knife store small karambits and others specifically for women "self defence" stuff, imported reasonably expensive stuff btw, so not about India because people here like to derail as soon as they see my flags.. anyway.
Based on what is being reported, a civvie situation went ugly, and racist slurs and violence ensued.
nobody died, people handled it, the perps are in custody of the law.. the legal system will take care of it, why jump to conclusions ?
