A public restroom is one of the strangest places in which to stay aware. While I can’t discuss how it is with ladies, in a men’s restroom, we are practically programmed to mind our own business and keep our eyes straight forward at all times.

While I doubt many fathers would be unwilling to make this sacrifice, I can’t help but think that if this man would have had a gun and some training, he could have prevailed over the aggressors. It’s obvious that this Miami father had the courage, he fought with two armed assailants, but he didn’t have the tools.
