In the short term, is there something that could be done to actively support/protect women that get this kind of threat?
I’m thinking specifically about the organization [Bikers Against Child Abuse][1], which basically sets up abused kids with a biker “gang” that stands watch outside their house, escorts them to court, and whatnot. The idea is that both the kid and their abuser see this very visable wall of protection which is bigger and scarier than anything that’s going to come at it.
I’m wondering if there’s something similar that could be done- either in cyberspace or physically. Something that not only shields the victim, but does so in a way that makes people think twice about making threats in the first place. Thoughts?
