In my previous capacity as a Security Supervisor, then Associate Director of Community Safety for the art school's urban campus, we were always careful never to blame the victim when they were preyed apon by criminals. No matter what. It was my task to design and implement a safety education program that empowered the community members to take sensible precautions and close the windows of opportunity that hoodlums look for. I was a certified self-defense instructor, a trained killer and a skilled assessor of human behaviors. None of my students, when confronted by an armed robber, would say; "Whattaya gonna do, shoot ?".
