A true people's militia would be sworn to uphold human rights, including women's rights. The horrors of history include male sexual sadism on a mass scale. Women are afraid of men with guns for good reason. But rape is not inevitable.

We need a zero tolerance policy for abuse, especially sexual abuse."
