Ian Miles Cheong @stillgray Last night in Milan, an 18-year-old girl was beaten and raped while trying to catch a train home. She had just turned 18. She called the emergency line herself, her voice breaking as she said what had been done to herdragged from the station underpass at San Zenone al Lambro into the trees, beaten, raped, abandoned.
The rescuers found her with the marks still on her body, rushed her first to the Policlinico di Milano, then to Mangiagallis anti-violence center. She was treated, examined, processed like one more case in a long line of cases. One more scar added to a system that records but doesnt stop the violence.
The investigation has begun. The Lodi prosecutors office is coordinating with the Milan carabinieri. Theyre reviewing the cameras, piecing together the story. Witnesses described the man as a North African. He walked up, dragged her behind the station, and destroyed her life in minutes.
As @andst7 asks, were now left with the same question that no one in power ever answers: how many? How many rapes, how many assaults, how many robberies do we have to wait through before the institutions act? Do they have a number in mind? Do they need ten more? A hundred? A thousand? Tell us what the quota isbecause for ordinary people, even one is already too many.
And heres the truth nobody in power will say: this keeps happening because the state has made it policy. They open the borders, wave people through without screening, and dump the costs of their decisions on ordinary citizens. The girl pays in blood while politicians pay nothing. The police arrive after the fact, the prosecutors file paperwork, and the cycle resets.
So ask the real question: if the state wont protect an 18-year-old on her way home, then who exactly do they protect? Because its not her. And its not you.
