I just saw this. I don't think we've met. My name's Nate Whitman. I volunteered for SAFE as well. I'll spar with you, too. I heard about the guy in the hospital. You can probably kick my ass, so I figure it can't hurt to learn from you.

You might be able to get space on-campus in the athletic center. If not, and you need some cash to rent a space, I can kick in some money.

This is no joke, people.

Nice to meet you, Nate, I'm Louie Alcott.

As you can probably see in the comment below, Jack and Frankie are going to set us up. I'm glad you're in. Thank you.

We have space that we were given to use just for self-defense classes. I'm in the process of procuring equipment and such now. I would be happy to have you help teach the classes. We also have insurance and all of that stuff through the university, so lawsuits should be covered. I would also be happy to spar with you. I box. I've sparred with Hemi and others, so feel free to tap me.

This is horrific. It makes me sick. Who are these guys? I just don't understand. And you aren't to blame here. Saying you have any blame would be like saying that a girl who tries to say defend herself asked to be raped for being 'uppity'. It's just patently ridiculous. I don't care who says it.

This is ridiculous. It's just...I'm sick. I'm really sick. My name's Jack, by the way. I run SAFE. I don't know if you've met my girlfriend Frankie or not, but she handles the administrative end of SAFE. Come see us and we'll help you fight back with the university's backing.

We need to meet and discuss this, I'd love to teach classes there. (I do krav maga, by the way, and it's what I'd be teaching.) But if I can do this through the college and through SAFE, that'd be marvelous, thank you. (I'd like to meet both you and Frankie, actually ( ... )

Count me in on the classes and the dudes willing to knock some teeth down throats.

Good, I was hoping you'd say that. Thank you.

I'm sorry to hear this happened to you. It seems things are escalating around here lately.

I've noticed that. It makes me sick, but more, it makes me /angry/. It's time to stop this.
