I was living out in West Hollywood when a

Hollywood strangler was strangling women

Every night there was a panel discussion

On TV about the strangler

Speculations about his habits his motives his methods

One thing was clear about him: he only strangled

Women when they were alone or with other women

And the panel members would always

End the show by saying:

Now for all you women listen: don't go

Outside without a man

Don't walk out to your car don't even take

The garbage out by yourself

Always go with a man

Then one of the eyewitnesses identified a

Policeman as one of the suspects

The next night the chief of the police was

On the panel and he said:

Now for all you women whatever happens

Do not stop for a police officer

Stay in your car

If a police officer tries to stop you do not stop

Keep driving and under no circumstances

Should you get out of your car

For a few weeks half the traffic in LA was

Doing twice the speed limits
