I live in Europe. In Amsterdam. I don't get what you mean.
I mean, I get that you don't want your wife being called a filthy whore, I get that you want to be left alone at a bus stop, I get that you want women to dress however they want. I want all of those things too. I just don't see how getting rid of open spaces would accomplish any of that. Are all of these things things that can't happen on narrow streets?
- b20000 5y agoif you live in Amsterdam, I'm sure you understand what I'm talking about. Unless you live outside the city in some upscale neighborhood. Where I'm originally from, when you call the police, they don't show up. When they arrest the thugs, they're back out in a few days. Your freedom and safety are not guaranteed. In the US, my experience has been very different. Not having open spaces will not prevent all this, but open spaces facilitate this sort of stuff.
- mcv 5y agoI live in the city. In a pretty decent neighbourhood (Oostelijk Havengebied), but I still don't understand what open spaces have to do with this. We've got tons of open spaces around here, all of them very safe. Police response or lack of it has nothing to do with open spaces.
