When I was growing up ... I so was a woman's libber .... I wouldn't allow a man to buy my drinks, my meals, even open doors for me because I wanted to be treated as an equal and taken seriously. I was extremely independent and wanted the world to know it.
However, I got a tell you about some girls making the news here in Edmonton ... four 19 year old girls caught a cab from a strip club/restaurant and decided to take advantage of a situation ... I guess. They decided to light up a cigarette in a cab ... which is illegal. When the cab driver said there could be a $500 fine for smoking ... so put it out ... the girls demanded the cab driver to stop and let them out .... they refused to pay the $13 cab fare ... they accused the cab driver of trying to molest them and ... the police were called.
Obviously, it was their word against his. NOT! There was a camera in the cab so when the police came, the cab driver played the video to the police.
Unfortunately, or fortunately, they picked on the wrong guy. No charges were laid but the cab driver is suing the girls.
Ladies ... please ... for years woman have been trying very hard to get men and society to take them seriously ... don't screw it up by acting like juveniles.

I dread to think of the scenario in the absence of the video camera. But then again the girls attitude & actions were just too much much. They never believe on judgement day, today you may escape and then repeat the action thinking that it's okay but i guess judgement day came too soon for the girls. What's becoming of our kids these days? Truly shocking.
ReplyDeleteThis is a disgusting story. It is not enough to sue those girls. They should be charged and tried in a court of law.
ReplyDeleteThey were willing to ruin this cab driver's life for a $13 cab fare.
What if the next cab drive does not have a video camera in his car?
How many other lives are ruined from false allegations?
