LA: Women fill up self-defense course
One woman had waited nearly a year to attend. Others had just learned of the
class through the newspaper. Boyfriends and husbands urged them to
participate. Some came to brush up on rusty skills. For all of the women and
girls taking the Rape Aggression Defense program offered by the 21st
Judicial District Attorney’s Office, the reason for being there was simple -
they wanted to be able to protect themselves from an aggressor.
