The "Angel" Shot.

Tweet

Have you heard of it? I saw something on facebook a few days ago, about this shot that a woman can order at a bar. It's a way to alert the bartender that you are in danger. There is actually a few different ways to order it, and each one has a different result. I forget the terminology for all, but basically one gets you escorted to your car by the bartender, another gets an uber or lyft called on your behalf, and the third is the most severe. The third gets the police called to assist you. Now I've seen something more recent on it, and it seems Hooters has taken up this intiative, though I am not sure whether it was them who started it to begin with. I have mixed feelings on this. For one, I think it's a good idea. It's something to help those women who are uncomfortable and need a way out, or even for those in dire situations. However, on another note I fear that it might become something that is somewhat misused. What if someone orders the "Angel Shot" In the manner that gets the police called on the man, and yet the man had done nothing untowards? On another side note, where is the "Code word" for the men, as they have every right to have one. Women aren't the only victims.
