amandamello: theoreticalgirl: I believe it is important to share this information. I don’t know the women personally involved but I think it is terrible what has happened to them. Going out to a nightclub, walking down the street, etc. — none of this should ever make us feel unsafe. People are working with the proper authorities to deal with this individual. If you have information to share, use the Philadelphia Police Department’s “tips” hotline (215-686-8477). Flyers are being distributed at events in town, and can be found on telephone poles, etc. You can download a PDF of the poster here.  Feel free to share this post. Like the following Yelp review.  Philadelphia Weekly writer Tara Murtha is also interested in hearing from you; get in touch with her if you have information to share. The Barbary HAS released a statement and it is on their Facebook wall. The women involved have also stated that the Barbary has been incredibly helpful and that they are not boycotting the bar. This isn’t about WHERE the incident took place. I personally don’t go to the Barbary, but I’m not going to boycott them nor will I tell anyone else to. What I will do is refuse to associate with people who engage in violent behavior {against both women AND men}. Let’s not focus on the wrong things here. Violence is bullshit.
