"What if it was your mother? Your wife? Your sister?"<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Nasty violence at Cinecitta’ station at the end of Rome’s Line A metro yesterday, in full daylight: after an argument in the line over whose turn it was, a 20-year old Roman struck a 32-year old Romanian nurse in the face. She went down and fractured her skull; he walked off and was later arrested. The security camera video up on the Corriere<\/em>‘s website<\/a> shows every detail, from the woman giving the man a push first to him calmly picking up his — ticket? — change? — off the ground, and then the extremely slow reaction time of the crowd. The man already had charges brought against him; for what the paper doesn’t say. I can’t but help thinking that national origin played a much larger role in this than age or gender. Would have he done the same to a 32-year old Italian? American? How much attention would this have gotten if it were Romanian-on-Romanian violence? One wonders.<\/p>\n

Several years ago a Forza Nuova poster<\/a> tried to stoke primitive fears with a provocative poster, intimating that the hordes from the east would be coming in to rape Italian women soon. \u00a0As we see, no nation necessarily has a premium on violence against women.<\/p>\n
